User is not able to create shopping cart

User is not an EBP User

This is the basic issue what we face whenever a user is new to Procurement system (SRM) and his user id is created but not able to create Shopping Cart

If we see in Org Strucutre PPOSA_BBP and search for the user then you will be able to find the user but if we see closely the BP Number will not be available to that particular user. This means that the user id is created but he is not a BBP User , In other words we can see user is not a SRM User and will not be able to create Shopping cart.

To creat a BBP User or User can be able to create Shopping cart. All you need to do is assign BP Number to that user ,Once user is assigned with the BP Number then you can define the attributes. Then the user should be able to create Shopping cart .

So inorder to assing BP Number we have to do the following things in SRM System

Go to Users_Gen
Click on "Copy User and Employee data from Template"
Select radio button "Create Users from Existing SUO1 Profile" and click on "Execute Action"

Once you click on "Execute Action" in the next screen you need to input Org id where the user should get assigned



When you click on "Continute" then a popup box comes up where it asks for all users or Area of users , If BP number needs to be generated for all the users the select radio box "All users" (or) if only one user needs the BP Number assignemnt then select "Area of Users" and input his id.

System search's for the user id and will display the details. Select the check box against that user id and press enter. Now the activity will be carried out sucessfully.

Now go to PPOSA_BBP Tcode and see the BP Number will be generated to that user. Go to Attributes and assign the values to these attributes like Account Assignment Catagory , Document Type in R/3 , Company code,Cost center. e.t.c.,

Once this id done the user should be able to create Shopping cart.
