Background documentationSettings for Supplier Performance Management in SAP SNC

 

To set up supplier performance management in SAP Supply Network Collaboration (SAP SNC), you must make settings in Customizing for Supply Network Collaboration or on the SAP Easy Access screen of SAP SNC. The settings you make in SAP SNC are valid for both supply base performance analysis and direct performance analysis.

To use supplier performance management, you must activate the business function Supply Network Collaboration 2 (SCM_SNC_GEN_2).

Settings for the Post Processing Framework

Under Start of the navigation path Tools Next navigation step Actions (Post Processing Framework) Next navigation step Define Action Profiles and Definitions End of the navigation path, you must activate action definitions for action profiles in the /SCA/ICH application of the Post Processing Framework (PPF). By activating the action definitions, SAP SNC saves the data that the supplier has processed on the SAP SNC Web UI, in files that he or she has uploaded using file transfer, or the data that he or she has sent to SAP SNC using XML messages into extraction database tables. SAP SNC uses the database tables to enable the extraction of the transactional data to SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse or to feed the queries in SAP SNC using operational data providers. Activate the following action definitions of action profiles as follows:

  • Activate the following action definitions for the Delivery (/SCA/BOL_DELIVERY) action profile:

    • /SCA/BOL_DLV_CUM_SHIP_DISC_CHK

    • /SCA/BOL_DLV_SDPR_CALL

  • If the supplier is using purchase orders, activate the /SCA/BOL_ORD_SDPR_CALL action definition for the Purchase Order (/SCA/BOL_ORDER) action profile.

  • If the supplier is using scheduling agreement releases, activate the /SCA/BOL_REL_SDPR action definition for the Release (/SCA/BOL_RELEASE) action profile.

  • If the supplier is using supplier confirmations, activate the /SCA/BOL_REL_SDPR action definition for the Confirmations for Scheduling Agreement Release (/SCA/BOL_RELEASE_CONFIRMATION) action profile.
