Confirmation Processing 
This function allows you to create and edit confirmations for services performed in supplier self-services (SUS), and send them to customers. This generates a confirmation if the receiving buying system is connected to SAP SRM, or a service entry sheet if the receiving buying system is connected to SAP ERP.
When you process confirmations for a purchase order with limit items, you can use a link at header level to navigate to the catalog from which you can select items or manually enter services towards the limit.
You can also transfer an SRM central contract available as a source of supply in SAP ERP from SAP ERP to supplier self-services to allow services to be entered against a contract limit using SRM-MDM Catalog.
To use this function, you must activate the business function SRM, Continuous Innovations (SRM_CONT_IMPR_1).
Integration
This function is only relevant for the Service Procurement business scenario.
Prerequisites
If you want to use a catalog connection to process confirmations that contain limit items, you must have worked through the Customizing activity Define External Web Services.

Features
Create Confirmations
You can create confirmations for purchase orders with the statuses In Process, Changed, or Confirmed. The document control settings in the purchase order determine whether or not you can create a confirmation for an item. Purchasers use these document control settings to specify which follow-on documents they expect. The SUS system copies all of the items for which a purchaser expects a confirmation from the purchase order to the confirmation.
Confirmations can also be created by a substitute. In this case, the substitute can select the appropriate service agent from a list.
Select Confirmations
You have the following options for selecting confirmations:
