Auto-triggering of PM Planning from service contract

Greetings!
I am currently working to automatically trigger preventive maintenance service order from service contracts. However, I have been struggling to understand some of the dates and the date rules, and how they work?
The dates are:
                                                    Rule Name
a) Planning start date:                  Today's Date
b) Planning Date From:                Determine Planned Date
c) Planning Date To:                    Planned Start + Tolerance
d) Start of Interval                        Planning Start Date
e) Service order creation date:     Planned Date - 2 weeks
f) Tolerance:
Let's say that I would like to have a contract valid from the 13.08.2014 to 13.09.2015, and I want the preventive maintenance service order to be begin from 20.08.2014, with a interval period of every 2 days (may be until 10.09.2015). Then how should I fill these dates in the service contract item ?
I would be glad if someone explained it to me. If you have a better example, I would also appreciate that.
Thank you.

Hi,
When you are using Contract is a Outline agreement -That may be Quantity or Value contract this for specific period.
Example you can maitain various Service line items for entire Periods as per the Contract details with Vendor.
when you want to create Release order w.r.t Contract for a specific work or only for Specific Services
whatever you want to required service for that release order that only system will ask us to select the services just like while creating Service entry sheets how we adopt the required services lines for accepting.
we need to select the Services from the contracts by manually while creating Release order
System will not copy automatically.
If you have more than 100 service lne items in Contract If you want to create release order only for 10 service line items then unnecessarly 100 line items will copies.T o overcome this problems SAP will allow to select the  service manuall for adopting to release order from contract
I think you are clear with the statement.
with regards

    Hi Pavan,
    You can use copy control BADI to achieve this.
    The badi to use is 'CRM_COPY_BADI'.  You need to configure the transaction copy control to trigger this badi.
    Look at methods REFOBJ,  SERVICE_I and SERVICEPLAN_I.
    One of this methids should allow you to do this.

  • Lead as Follow up document from Service Contract

    Hi Experts,
    There is a requirement to create Service Lead from Service Contract. I dont think there is something different by name Service Lead so i assume it is Standard Lead which is present in system.
    I maintained the copy control for Tx. Types and as well as for Item Categories.
    Issue:
    If i create a Service Contract and create a follow up Lead with no items, it works fine.
    Suppose i use an item (sales/service item), and i try to create a follow up Lead, the resulting pop-up to choose items from preceding document shows and error and the item doesnot get coped and displays an error, 'Sold-to-Party is not eligible for contract items'.
    Has anyone come across this issue?
    Thanks and Regards,
    MG

    Hi Maggii,
    1. Is it possible to create a Lead from Service Contract? Does the system allow it even after maintaining relevant copy control configurations?
    A.Yes, it is possible while arranging of copy controls for transactions need to activate u201CCopy Item numberu201D.
    2.What does the error message, 'Sold to party not eligible for contract items' mean....have u ever seen such error?
    A.  Means, the particular sold to party is not maintained for that contract (for trail check with any maintained sold to party for that error message), cross check the contract again under in partner functions.
    If it is suits to your requirement please some reward points,
    Thanks,
    Suuny.

  • Sales order from Service Contract?

    Dear SD Guru,
    Can I created Sales Order from Service Contract? I would like to create a sales order from service contract (MV) and I need to generate billing from the sales order. MV-> OR-> F2. No Resource Related Billing involved.
    Thanks,
    Soo

    Hi,
    I think this can be achieved, if you do copy control from order to order in VTAA.
    Thanks

  • Billing Plan Start Date not copied to Sales order from Service Contract

    Hi
    We are developing a process of Creation of Service Contract and then a order confirmation.
    Now based on the Order Confirmation will bill based on the Bill Plan.
    The Bill plan start date in contract header is not flowing to Sales Order header while creating with reference.
    Then navigating to Header Billing plan and if we input the date the billing plan dates are displayed.
    We checked the copy control settings and seems like the date is not copied.Is this a standard behaviour.
    If so then do we have any work arounds to achieve the same. Because the contract start date can change before confirmation.
    So business wants a sales order confirmation to be created after contract creation and bill periodically as per the Sales order instead of contract.

    Hi,
    Appreciate ur quick response. But instead of FKDAT i need the FPLA-BEDAT to be flowed to Billing Plan.Right now iam entering the following date manually at header.Instead if it copies from Contract header then manual entry could be neglected.
    Is it possible with the same routine to code with the above mentioned FPLA-BEDAT.

  • Copying dates from service contract to an activity

    Hello All,
    My requirement is this. I need to capture my contract start and end dates in the follow-up transaction(which is an activity).This activity would be created manually from contract. I tried assigning the standard date rules(contract start and end date) to the date types in the activity. But it did not work. Is there any way to achieve this through configuration?
    Regards
    Ankit

    Hi Ankit,
    You can achieve this using "Copy Controls".. This is a set of configurations that will suggest what are the things that need to be copied from the parent transaction to the follow up transaction.
    You can copy both header level and item level details. In your case, you can configure to copy the date types into your follow-up.

  • CRM- Find Service contract from Internal Order Number

    Hi Friends,
    I would like to know how to get service contract from internal oredr number.
    From service contract we can find internal order number by using CRM_ORDER_READ function module- table et_document_flow, but my requirement is how to find service contract from Internal order number.Any function module or BAPI available for this requierement ?

    Hi,
      when the costs are transferred from CRM to R3, they are posted to an internal order. When a service order or incident is transferred to R3, we have to create an internal order for it, regardless of whether or not a contract has been assigned.
    This is all linked to the logic used in CO to find the appropriate internal order. It works as follows:
    The internal order is stored in the table IAOM_ASSIGNMENTS. This is accessed by a guid (the account assignment guid).
    To get this guid, there is a second table IAOM_EXT_OBJ_INF. This table links the GUIDs coming from CRM, dependent on the CO Customizing for CRM (Mass Controlling, Header level, item level controlling etc.)
    This is how we manage to link a service order to the internal order of a contract in the first place.
    When we call CO, CO first looks for an assignment for the object guid passed. If a service order has been linked to a contract, nothing will be found for the object guid. CO will then check for assignments to the reference guid and find the contract entry.
    If no contract has been assigned, CO will create an internal order based on the service order guid.
    From a CRM point of view, costs are assigned directly to an item, and so it makes no sense to have a reference guid for the costs or the possibility to change the guid via BADI.

  • Accept Button in Service Contract Quotations

    Hi Experts
    The requirement is to create any of the 2 different types of contracts as a follow up from service contract quotation.
    I have maintained both the contract types as follow up transactions of service contract quotation through copy control. When I click on Accept button in the quotation, it doesnt show me both the contracts creation option. I know SAP doesnt recommend creating a follow up directly and even if I do it, the pop shows up both the contract types but when i create any of them, the items dont carry over.
    In short, I am expecting to get two options when I click on accept but i m not getting it. Is there anything to do in Change process?

  • How to link Sales Order with Service Contract and then with Install Base?

    Hi Friends,
    1) I would like to know the integeration process from sales order to Service Contract and then with Install Base.
    2) I couldn't see anything enabled in Service Tab in Order Lines, its grayed out. Is there any set up/profile option to get it enabled?
    3) How can we create AR invoice from Service Contract?
    Please let me know if anyone has idea on this.
    Thanks in Adavance,
    Vara

    Dear Sid,
    Thanks for your promt response.
    Let me explain you what I did.
    1) I have booked a Bill Only sales order which has one order line, mentioned it as Service Item and provided the same details in Service Tab in Order lines. Now Line status is "Fulfilled"
    2) Then Submitted Workflow Back Ground Process for OM Order Lines and it has created an AR Invoice and closed the line
    3) And then submitted "Service Contracts Order Capture Integration Program" from SErvice Contracts Responsibility and it completed normal.
    4) Now I went in to Launch Contracts Window and queried with the sales order but couldn't see any contract created
    5) Then I went in to Reprocess Order Window and found this order shows an error message as "Referenced Product not present in the Installed Base", then I tried to reprocessed it, but the same error message again.
    Here I have few doubts:
    1) Are the AR invoice and Service Contract Billing Invoices same?
    2) In above scenario AR Invoice has been created, I would like to do the billing from SErvice Contracts and need to create an Invoice in AR? how can I do that?
    because as you explained in one of my questions earlier, A Single Invoice can be created for the whole duration of the contract. I want to do that and trying for the same.
    3) Regarding the above error message, how can I resolve it and create the service contract against that Order?
    Thank you so much for your helpful answers.

  • Followup service contract to sales order

    Hi experts,
    Can I create a  Sales Order from Service contract, If Yes can I get products in Sales Order.Actully I am getting the products in sales order product Tab,but I am not getting that information in General tab.
    I want to get the data in general tab.
    Is it mandatory to match the Org details in Service contrcat with sales contract when we are creating the followup activity because  we know that there is no service orgunit in sales order.
    please send your solution to this mail id: nelakurtir @techmahindra.com

    First you need to get the order header right before assigning products: Since you are copying from a service scenario transaction into a sales scenario tx you need to be aware that service and sales transactions refer to different views of the organisation model. It is not possible to reuse the service org determined in a sales order; instead you have to re-determine the organisation details (in the copying control). This way you would get the correct organisation details for sales. The same applies on item level; after doing these settings the copying should look better.

  • Service Contract to Sales Order?

    Dear SAP Guru,
    Can I create Sales Order from Service Contract and bill the order without going thru Resource Related Billing? MV -> OR -> F2?
    Or, straight from MV to FV?
    What is the correct process flow?
    Thanks,
    Soo

    Yes. you can very well refer a service contract to a sales order and bill the same. But, see that your sales order items are relevant for billing (in case you have service products as contract items).
    Resource related billing should be used when you are billing your customer w.r.t a service order.
    There isn't a fixed process flow. Have this thumb rule:
    1. When you have fixed price for type of repair you have agreed in contract, then there is no use of doing resource related billing, if the same kind of repair is being performed.
    2. In case your customer pays you on time & material basis, go through the RRB route to bill.
    Hi Ananth,
    Thanks for your reply.
    For my scenario, it is based on time & material for a rental material. The sales order is created based on the number of days used by the customer for a rental material and billing is generated.
    So, if RRB is used, that will mean a DIP profile has to be set up.
    Question:
    If RRB is used, what will be the process flow? From CS module, a service order is created from the sales contract and in the DIP profile, there is a default order type which is "LV" and DMR will be generated and eventually, a debit memo is created.
    What about sales order? Any DMR being generated? Or what is the flow?
    Thanks,
    Soo
