• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SRMSMC/INTEGRATION071 - Data of supplier &1 in system &2 (external supplier &3) has been changed ?

  The SAP error message /SRMSMC/INTEGRATION071 indicates that there has been a change in the data of a supplier in the system. This message typically arises in the context of Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) and integration with other systems, such as SAP ERP or other external systems.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  Data Change: The supplier data (e.g., name, address, contact information) has been modified in the source system (e.g., ERP) after it was initially transferred to the SRM system.
  Integration Issues: There may be inconsistencies between the supplier data in the SRM system and the external system, leading to synchronization issues.
  Timing Issues: The data might have been changed in the external system after the last synchronization, causing the SRM system to detect a mismatch.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Data Consistency:
  
  Verify the supplier data in both the SRM and the external system (e.g., SAP ERP).
  Ensure that the data is consistent and matches across both systems.
  
  
  
  Re-Synchronize Data:
  
  If discrepancies are found, you may need to re-synchronize the supplier data from the external system to the SRM system.
  Use the appropriate transaction or program to trigger the data synchronization process.
  
  
  
  Review Change Logs:
  
  Check the change logs in both systems to identify what changes were made and when.
  This can help you understand the source of the inconsistency.
  
  
  
  Update the SRM System:
  
  If the changes in the external system are valid and should be reflected in the SRM system, update the SRM system accordingly.
  This may involve manual updates or running a batch job to update the supplier data.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific error message for any additional guidance or known issues.
  
  
  
  Contact SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists and you cannot resolve it, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for managing supplier data in SRM and ERP (e.g., BP for Business Partner).
  Integration Settings: Review the integration settings between SRM and the external system to ensure they are configured correctly.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that the user performing the actions has the necessary authorizations to view and modify supplier data.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the error message and ensure that supplier data is consistent across systems.
