Confirmation of service

Hi everyone,
When I am doing a goods issue for non stock materials (item category : TAX) it gives me a "confirmation of service". I understand there are no stock movements for non stock materials. But where exactly is this setting maintained that does confirmation of service and not goods issue? Moreover, why exactly are we doing a delivery and goods issue when there are no stock movements? Is it to hit the COGS? Pls clarify my doubts.
Thanks to everyone,
Nithin.

Hai Nithin Murali,
Regarding 'Confirmation of service' line in your Document flow, simply forget it as it appears if and when system does any back ground work automatically. As far as if it is done to hit COGS, I am not sure, but if you do a little search in this forum's archives, you will find the same answer so many times.
I think the reason no ones answering your query is because a lot of them have left for the day!!
Plz do reward if you found this answer useful and also kindly close this question as and when you get your answer.
Thanks and Happy customizing!!

Confirmation of service PO with multiple line item

Hi SAP Experts,
We are using SRM 7EhP1(classic scenario).
I have a question regarding confirmation of service shopping carts/POs with several line items.
We created a SC (and successively a PO) with N service positions.
When we try to create a SRM confirmation, it seems that we can only confirm one position at a time.
For material SC, in the list of SCs open for confirmation we have a line for each shopping cart, and you can create a single confirmation for the whole shopping cart.
On the contrary, for service SC we have a line for each SC line. In this case, we cannot process all the lines in a single confirmation, but we need to create multiple confirmations.
Is that correct? Is there a way to confirm at the same time all the service positions of the SC?
Thanks!
Cinzia

Hello Cinzia,
Regarding creating service confirmations we can create only one confirmation for one line item of SC. If there are N line items we have to create N confirmations. This is because activation of Service bundling switch in SRM and this switch is irreversible. This switch is a facility/convenience for SRM PO's replicated to ECC to view all service line items in ECC without bundling. This scenario happens for both Service and Limit items.
I hope service bundling switch in your SRM system 7 EHP1 is activated.
There is no other way to create service confirmations for all items at one go.
We do have this inconvenience and raised this concern with SAP and no reply.
Hope, this answers your question.
Best Regards,
Kalyan

Confirmation of service in document flow

Dear all,
how can i hide the confirmation of service lines in the document flow.
Thanks

Try removing all authorisation to the relevant transactions in PFCG. It might stop display in the document flow also.

Confirmation of service in the document flow, where it comes from?

Dear all,
I found a confirmation of service after I picking and posting goods issue, from the document flow.
I just wondering, where it comes from? Or, how can I configure it on or off for display?
(This is a standard ERP system, should not involve in the CRM module)
Thanks,

Hi Peng,
This usually happens for inbound deliveries usually happens when a movement type is not found for the relevant item. Please check in the delivery item if a movement type is maintained.
Another possibility is that the material is a non-stock (service) material type for which goods movement are not relevant. Check the material type from the material master.

Qty in Confirmation of Service is less than Delivery Quantity

Hi All,
I am trying to find the rootcause of a situation with our delivery document, hope you could help.
In our delivery, we have TAX "Non Stock Item" line items (no Movement Type); and for these kinds of items, I understand that:
1) They do not check stock, and you can do PGI without any stock
2) Upon GI, these generate "Confirmation of Service" entries in the document flow (whereas Standard Items, with Movement Types attached, generate a material document)
3) Unlike zero-delivery-quantity parent line items of batch splits, who also generate Confirmation of Service entries upon GI, our TAX items actually have a non-zero delivery quantity
4) The TAX items are not relevant for picking, so there is a delivery qty, but then there is 0 pick qty
The issue I am having is that for one of the TAX items, the Quantity in the Confirmation of service is less then the Delivery Quantity. That is, when I go into the document flow:
a) The delivery line item has 55 units
b) The Confirmation of Service has only 24 units
c) The Invoice has 55 units again for this item
What's weird is that, if TAX items do not check stocks at all, why did the qty in the confirmation of service become less than the original quantity that is specified in the delivery?
Another unusual behavior i am seeing (may or may not be related to the above) is that the delivery is already invoiced but the delivery's doc flow status is still "being processed" (and not "completed"). This may be because of the above issue, but I see the TotalGdsMvtStatus of the delivery as C "Complete" - which may be why the invoice was possible.
Hope you could help provide some insights. Thanks!
Regards,
Stephen

Hi Arakish,
Thanks for the inputs:
you checked: delivery picked qty is showing zero (no one entereed 24 in error)?
-> yes picked qty is 0 and the change logs do not show otherwise
there is only the one confirmation not two for that tax item in the doc flow?
-> yes there is only one confirmation of service entry in the doc flow, with 24 units
there is no descrepency in units of measure? (meaning it's not EA in one place but UPK or something strange like that else where)
-> yes the UoMs are all in KEGs
Another observation is that for the delivery status overview, the goods movement status of each of the line items is also C/Green (including my TAX item). The total goods movement status (header) is also C/Green
Hope you could shed more light. Thanks!
Regards,
Stephen

Custom fields on confirm goods/services centrally

Hi Gurus,
I am working in classic scenario of SRM 5.0.
I have a requirement for which I need to add 2 custom fields on extended search screen of confirm goods/services centrally; I have tried implementing the note 672960 which did not helped me.
Can anybody please suggest me if you have any info.
Thanks,
Arun.

Hi Arun,
From what i understood from your query, you want to add fields on the "CONFIRM GOODS/SERVICES CENTRALLY" transaction search screen.
The fields are 'shopping cart number' and 'shopping cart creator'.
Please go through the following OSS Note:
Note 672960 - User-defined fields 2
I think the structure you should use are:
INCL_EEW_PD_SEARCH_HDR_CSF_CNF
If you have defined document-specific fields on header and/or item level, you also have to define them in structures INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF (for the fields of the header) and INCL_EEW_PD_ITEM_CSF IF THEY HAVE NOT BEEN DEFINED THERE YET. Consequently, these structures contain the combination of header or item fields of all document-specific fields
You can also use user-defined fields as search criteria. To do this, you have to set fields XINPUT and XDISPLAY to 'X' in table ET_FIELDS for the fields you want to use in BADI BBP_CUF_BADI_2 in method MODIFY_SCREEN. The fields defined this way are displayed if you choose the 'Extended search' link.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Pradeep

A confirmation of service is created instead of GR goods receipt inb. deliv

Dear Experts,
When I post an inbound delivery created for a PO item with confirmation control (0004) - Shipping notification, No material document is created. In the document flow I see Completion of service is created and no PO History Update follows.
When I try the same inbound delivery posting for a PO items which has 0001 (Confirmations) as confirmation control, the Material Document is created and PO history is updated too.
Do you know where I can alter the setting to create GR posting instead of Confirmation of Service for PO items with 0004-Shipping notification (Inbound delivery) confirmation control?
Thank you very much!
regards,
Shoira

Problem with "Confirmation of Service"

Hello -
I have a sales order with, what I think, is an invalid schedule line on it. The schedule line is missing the Delivery Date. This line is also greyed out, so I cannot delete or modify it. The problem I'm having is that when trying to create delivery for new schedule line, I am told that the sales order is incomplete, thus, I cannot create the delivery.
Well, the incompleteness comes from the missing Delivery Date on this old schedule line. When I try to delete it, even though it is greyed out, I'm told I cannot, due to a subsequent document. This subsequent document turns out to be a "confirmation of service" doc that shows up in the document flow, between the delivery and invoice way back in January of 2009, which is when the delivery was created.
Between Jan and today, many deliveries have been made against this schedule line, but as I've stated, today, I see that this rouge schedule line appears at the top of the list in the sales order. Aside from it having no Delivery Date, it has no quantity associated with it.
I don't know how to get rid of this line item so that deliveries can be created for current schedule lines.
Any help is appreciated...
Thanks,
Bryan

In the document flow, if you could see "Confirmation of Service", then while doing PGI of the respective document, there would have been no movement type.
Similarly, check in sale order what item category is flowing. It could have been TAX / TAW in which case, it will not check the stock and one can do PGI with this item category without having stock. So first check that delivery document whether you could see the movement type there and item category as well.

Confirmation of services= Finance can not process it.

Hi Guys,
For return to vendor here is our process.
PO get created
Then delivery get generated
And then when we PGI , it is not creating any material document and accountng document. Just a confirmation of service.
So it is blocked in Finance.
Can can we get our credit for that?
Btw Material type is NLAG.
Anyone faced the same problem?
Regards
Julien
Edited by: julien poncheele on Nov 9, 2011 3:10 AM

Hello,
This is a non-stock item, so it will not create any of the accoutnign documents while doing the PGI. You can't even open the 'confirmation of service' document.
As thee is not amount involved, the what is the use of creating a credit? Did you do the IR for the PO?
Regards,
SAM

PO not displayed in Confirm Goods / service Centrally

We are on SRM 5.0 Extended classic scenario. Backend is ECC 6.0.
A Purchase order has been created in SRM and transferred to ECC does not appear in "Confirm goods / services centrally" transaction.
We noticed that in the Vendor master (Manage business partner) for that Vendor - ERS and Invoice Receipt Expected indicator were NOT set and PO was already created. These two options have been enabled now. Could this be a cause ?
Any inputs or solutiion would be helpful.
Thanks
RB

Hi manoj
you can deactivate the Extended search by modifying the template in SE80.
However for confirmation every time one has to enter the PO number and then do a confirmation.
This is the same functionality as we have in R3 MM in MIGO transaction.
so whether it is simple search or exteneded search the Po number is an input for performing the Confirmation.

No account assignment details were adopted - Confirm Goods / Services

Hey Group,
I have an issue: I'm in the Confirm Goods /Services. When I attempt to 'Start' a search for Confirms Goods Receipts/Services Performed, I get the message: No account assignment details were adopted. Do any of you know why I might be getting this message?
If helpful will be provided full points. Thanks.
SKumar

Hi Kumar,
This is because if you click on Extended Search screen in Confirm Goods/Services screen, Account assignment Category was picked (Something like CC,OR or AS) but in the next field the value of Account assignment Category was not put in.
If you are pickingup Account assignment category please put a value of it, else do not select it.
Please award points if your issue is resolved with this.
Thanks,
Venkat

Confirm Goods / Service display delivery date on item level

Hello all,
in transaction Confirm Goods / Service user can see creation date of the purchase order. Is it possible to somehow display required delivery date on item level. Field "Required on" which is visible in Basic data of the item.
Would like to have as minimum modification as possible, maybe through customizing (of course if possible) :o))
TIA

PO descripion is empty in trx Confirm Goods/Services.

Hi Experts,
I would be really glad if you could help me. In trx Confirm Goods/Services in SRM5 (Extended Classic), when I try to search for PO to confirm, finding via Description field is not working. When I put PO number, PO is found, but when I try to find it not by ID, but by Description, system does not find anything. I noticed that table BBP_PDVIEW_LIST which groups all POs details to be shown as a result of searching, does not have field Description filled. It is empty. Propably that's why when I try to fing PO by description, the results are negative because description is not filled in searching results table BBP_PDVIEW_LIST. Do you know why this happens?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...
Kind Regards,
Rafal

Hi,
I have just received info from OSS with very interesting finding. No Purchase Name in searching results in trx Confirm Goods/Services centrally was caused by lack of proper value in attribute "System Alias". There such be both backend system alias and srm system alias.
Kind Regards,
Rafal
