Automatic posting of service entry sheet

Hello SAP Experts,
There is a requirement for creating an invoice prior to a service entry sheet for some service POs. After the invoice is posted a service entry sheet should be created. For all other service orders, the normal SAP standard process would be followed. Is there something in standard SAP that can be used ?
Please let me know how this can be handled.
Thank you.

Hi,
If it is for particular service order, then remove check box selection u201CGR-Basedu201D and u201C S-Basedu201D in Invoice TAB in the PO, then do MIRO and then do SES.
OR
Remove check box of u201CGR-Based Invoice Verificationu201D and u201CService-Based Invoice Verificationu201D from vendor master, then do MIRO and then do SES
OR changes you process and do GR non-valuated, Just do PO and then directly invoice.

Automatic acceptance of Service entry Sheet

Hi,
We have requirement like whenever the service entry sheet create automatically through CATM it should get service acceptance automatically

I think this is not possible through std SAP but you can use the user exit SRVESSR
to accept the service in background once it is generated through CATM.

Commitment item not picking while MIRO posting for Service entry sheet

Hi to all,
We have activated Fund Management in middle of the year where there were purchase order completed to till MIGO. When we do MIRO now system unable to pick commitment item from FMDERIVE.
We have created Commitment item as 50/3 combination ( No budget check ) and assigned to GR/IR clearing account.
We also activated trace in FMDERIVE and checked MIRO posting and found that derivation is working properly but while posting it is triggering error.
Some one advise me as it affected daily activities.
Thanks & Regards,
Y.Kiran Babu

Hi,
For the purchase order completed and the related MIGO created before FM was implemented, you need to run FMCN and FMCT.
I will explain to you in detail all the information related to the matter.
First of all, it seems to be in your PO that does not have FM account assignment (funds center and commitment item) in account assignment TAB. In addition, the error occurs usually also because in your SES the FM account assignment is missing.
For GR and IR documents FM always takes the major part of the FM account assignment from the PO.
You can fill these account assignments by using the programs RFFMCHAN/RFFMCHAT.
FMCN/FMCT must be run for the first document in the chain, which is the PO in case you don't have a PR assigned to this PO or an earmarked fund document. If you have PR's assigned to the PO's please run FMCN/FMCT for the PR first.
When executing the FMCT transaction, ALL documents selected in one group must be tested and processed successfully TOGETHER. If any one document fails, the ENTIRE group is shown as in error.
Therefore, first step is to ensure that the reference PO has a valid FM account assignment and is updated in FM. This should be done by FMCN/FMCT and subsequent posting with FMN4N (see reconstruction note 189761).
The SES itself might not be changed by FMCT. Therefore you should fulfill the FM account assignments in SES manually or with a custom program.
Please check also your table FM01X. As an alternative solution, you can enable one of these flags in table FM01X, depending on your business needs:
FLG_PO_PROTECT if you want to always inherit the fm account assignment from the reference PO and therefore skip FMDERIVE
FLG_FMDERIVE_FORCE if you always want to force a call to fmderive in all cases
FLG_SES_OVERWRITE in services, if you wish to overwrite the account assignment from the SES with the derived values from FMDERIVE.
You can find more information about it in text part of notes 1146677 and 923672.
FMDERIVE is skipped for GR/IR lines and the Commitment item is inherited from the PO regardless of whether or not the GR/IR line is FM relevant. This is SAP standard behavior.
If you want to force the Commitment item to be derived from the GL account for the GR/IR line, you can use the FLG_FMDERIVE_FORCE flag as described in note 923672. This will allow FMDERIVE to be called for these lines. Please be sure to fully test this to ensure that FM account assignments that you do not want to be overwritten are not incorrectly derived.
Bear in mind that for PO´s that does not have account assignment you should run FMCN/FMCT + FMN4N. For this you would need to check the flags and which one is more related to your needs. With the appropriate flag marked in FM01X (active with X) you should be able to run the transactions without any issue.
Based on note 189761, after doing all the previous suggestions and the issue does not appear anymore, I suggest you to run the following programs:
1) FMN0 for this PO/GR to see if the actual values are correct in FM table FMIFIIT (FM actual line items).
2) Run report RFFMRC04 (transaction FMAF). The reconstruction programs always update the totals records in Funds Management. Therefore, you do not normally need to reconstruct the totals records. However, if you suspect there are data inconsistencies in the totals records, you can analyze and correct these using the report RFFMRC04 (transaction FMAF).
If you correct the totals records, you must do this before you reconstruct the assigned values (see below).
3) Run reconstruction for AVC
You can also reconstruct the assigned values using the following tools:
    o Report BPINDX03 (transaction FMBV) for former budgeting
    o Report RFFMAVC_REINIT (transaction FMAVCREINIT) for the Budget
       Control System (BCS)
Make sure that no other system activities (postings, budgeting) are carried out during a reconstruction (commitment/actual or assigned values).
I believe that this resolve your inquiry.
Best Regards,
Vanessa.

Automatic service entry sheet acceptance

Hi,
I need to find a way to automatically accept the service entry sheet created through CATM. Is there an efficient way to accomplish this?

Dear Kish,
Its a standard practice to approve the hours of work done by an external or internal with their immediate superior or higher. SAP has incorporated to fulfill the same as a universal process.
You have to go for User Exit via SMOD for SRVESSR or Badi to fulfill your requirement. Schedule as a background process as per your requirement

Service PO and Service Entry Sheets Question

Hi Guru,
I need some advice on the following questions in service PO and service entry sheets.
1) How can i change the default unit of measure in service PO? where is this in customizing?
2) How can i turn off the message "No message record could
be found for output of message.Save anyway?" when i try to accept a service entry sheet entry?
3)Can someone share with me the business process for service PO?
Is it a must to do MIRO against the service entry sheet? How does the the person who is performing the MIRO transaction knows the service entry sheet number?
Thanks.
Zhulk

HI,
Following are answers to some of your questions -
1) What do you mean by default unit measure? If this is the unit of Service, then you may change this in Service Master (T Code AC03). If the unit is at line item, then it should be AU, because you may order multiple services under one line each having different units of measure.
2) The message "No message record could be found for output of message. Save anyway?" is displayed because, you have not maintained output message for service entry sheet. Either define the output or remove the warning message at Attributes of system messages.
3) The process of service PO is same as material PO. The difference is that the item category for service PO is 'D' & then you maitain services for the line item either with or without service master. After completion of service, you create service entry sheet at transaction code ML81N & after accepting the service entry sheet, service entry sheet based GRN is prepared. The person who is posting MIRO is not required to know Service Entry Sheet number to post MIRO. The system automatically checks the service entry sheets accepted. Anyway, the service entry sheet number can be displayed at Purchase Order History tab of the conccerned PO at PO display option (T Code ME23N).
Hope your query is fulfilled.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

ECS scenario - Service PO and Service Entry sheets in backend

Hello,
We are on SRM_SERVER 550, SP07 and in the process of moving to ECS scenario.
There are some questions from me on the Service procurement in ECS.
1. When we create a PO with service item in SRM, will it get copied to backend as a Po with item category 'D'? This is how it happens in classic scenario,but does the same hold good in ECS?
2. When creating the confirmation for the service PO in SRM for ECS scenario, this would be a time entry/service entry sheet.
Would this be replicated to R/3 as a time entry sheet using RFC call?
Standard SRM210 guide mentions that goods confirmation will flow to backend as GR thro ALE/IDOCs and service confirmation will flow to backend as service entry sheets using RFC calls.
But I wanted a confirmation if this is entirely a standard SAP scenario or are there any restrictions on this?

Srivatsan

Commitment item error at the time of Service entry Sheet

Hi experts,
I have created a service PO, in which I have given the GL. Now when I am going to post the service entry sheet, I am changing the GL account. But system is picking the commitment item with reference to the GL earlier provided in PO.
I want to pick the commitment item with reference to the GL I am providing in service entry sheet.
Pl suggest how can I achieve this.
Regards,
Ankit Agarwal

Hi Eli,
Thanx for your response.
But derivation rule is same for all GL. Whether we put GL in PO or in Service entry sheet, system will derive the commitment item from the same single rule.

Service Entry Sheet Accounting Entries??

Dear All,
At the time of Service Entry sheet our client is asking to post the accounting entries as below.
WIP A/C-Dr xxxx
To SR/IR A/c xxxx
For WIP we have to give the WBS so that at later stage this WIP has to be settled (wbs settlement to GL) to the COGS Account.
Lets see the Functionality for this.
Ex: Customer orders A construction of Cell Tower.
To constuct a Tower It involves 1) Supply of Material 2) Erection work 3) Civil
for supply of material directly it will be purchased from the 3 rd party and send it to the customer location and do the billing.
For Erection work Internal employees will go and do the erection work and billing to the customer.
For Civil work where we dont have human resources, so we give this civil work to the sub contractors and once the job is done we will pay to the sub contractor.
in this scenario with respect to the civil work as we are paying the money on behalf of customer (receivable from customer) client is asking to post the service entry sheet entries to WIP account.
Please suggest us the proper process or how to it.
I also will explain the problems we are facing to post to WIP.
As WIP is balance Sheet Item and its assigned in GBB system is not allowing to create cost element for that, so at the time of posting the service entry sheet I am able to post the transaction without WBS.
As we planned to settle wbs to cogs now it cant be done.
Please suggest me some solution.
Regards,
Shashi Kanth.

Result Analysis is a concept in CO which enables you to post WIP when the project is not closed yet. Once the project ends, you run the RA again and reverse the posting to post the actual values. You can speak to your CO consultant for this. You can refer the following link to get the document.

Also, you'll get lot of other resources on this if you google.

Service entry sheet creation from PO without selecting line item of PO?

Dear SAPIENTS,
While creating service entry sheet for one frame work order (PO) i do not want to select line item of PO. I want all the service of PO line item should come automatically in single service entry sheet number.
At present whenm i enter the PO number its taking line item 10 as default because of this service of that line item is coming and for every line item i have to create different service entry sheet.
Regards,
Kaushal Rai

Hi,
in ML81N please enter the entry sheet header data, then go to full screen services, push the button for
"service selection" and after that a popup appeares for the service selection (SAPLMLSP
0500). On the bottom of this popup you have the button "complete" = adopt all = F9. If you hit this
button all of your services within the service specification will be copied into the entry sheet
at the same time.

Service Entry Sheets

Hi All
I have the following scenario.
We are using BAPI_ENTRYSHEET_CREATE to create service entry sheets.
Using the bapi, the system allows me to create multiple service entry sheets without validaing the open quantity available on the service line.
Eg. PO Line 1 Services
Service 1 - 100 HRS @ ZAR500
If I use the bapi to create the service entry sheet using Service 1 - 100 HRS @ZAR500, it will post the service entry sheet successfully
I can then run the bapi again wit

Hi,
Has the service entry sheet been approved? If so you would have to revese the approval (there is an icon for this (an bent arrow when the approve icon was).
If it has not been approved yet the delete should work fine.

BAPI for Automatic Good Recipt refer to Service Entry Sheet

Hello Experts,
I need to create an automatic GR document after the SES creation/acceptance through importing time sheets from CATS to MM-SRV using transaction CATM. When doing so, the service entry sheet is created and after the acceptance is automatically set by the EXIT_SAPLMLSR_010, but the GR document is not created. Is there a BAPI for the automatic creation of the GR document?
Thank you
Mario F.

Hi,
I think you should check this in ML81N. You try to post and check the error there. Not all the errors are reported back in you scenario.
cheers,
