Contracts and Services

Hi,
can anyone explain the difference between contracts and services in detail.
Thanks,
kiran.

Hi,
Contract: - some time you have dill with party for purchase material for 1 year or 2 year for specific rate and fright charges.
At this time you have to create contract with vendor.
Service: - Exa: - If your machine at plant is required to repair. At this time you give only service charges to your party, you not receipt any material from party.
At this time you have to create service master - AC03.

  • Service prod in service contract and service order thro RRB!

    Hi,
    I have service contract with service product say Rep_service with 1 Hr rate as 100 USD in place for a particular equipment with serial number.
    I have received a complaint now I am raising a service order SM01 service order with contract
    I have maintained the same equipment number in the Service order as in service contract
    and selected the service contract too.
    i have operations and material consumption for service order.
    When I run  DP90 RRB the material determined is Service (different service product) based on my DIP profile, (should I maintain the same service product in DIP profile as in service contract or any other service prod can be maintained). What happens to this billing document generated from DP90?
    And my service order settles to service contract.
    I think when service contract is in place then to generate billing I will use only service contract as reference.
    Please suggest me how to go about it.
    Kindly if possible give me some link to documents.
    Regards,
    N.Nagaraju

    Hi Nagaraju,
    First of all, you can bill Service Contract and Service Order differently. This is because you may wish to charge contract fees irrespective of whether service occurs or not.
    Secondly, while maintaining DIP profile, you can use different material from the one used in contract. Just make sure that it gives explanation as to what service was performed so that customer will understand the invoice.
    DP90 will generate Debit memo request. You will need to create billing document against this using VF01.
    When you settle the service order (KO88), it will be settled against service contract.
    Please let me know if you need any further information.

  • Replicating Service contracts and Service orders from ECC 6.0 to CRM 2007

    Hi CRM Gurus,
        How can we replicate Service contracts and Service orders from ECC 6.0 and CRM 2007. Any pointers to do this?
    Please let me know.
    Best regards,
    Vinay

    Vinay,
    I dont think you need any Middleware adaptor objects for CRM Request download .
    You need to create a request in CRM using R3AR2 . Here you need to provide the R/3 table name and field name to download the service document along with Document ID
    You can monitor your request download in txn R3AR4.
    But as MCG rightly told , you should have done all requried customized settigns before downloading service documents .

  • Problem with contract and service not matching... no help by phone or in stores

    My contract says 4gb shared plan, my bill says FamilyShare1400...  15+hours in person and on the phone and lots of promises but the bottom line is I AM NOT IN THE PLAN I CONTRACTED!  My bill has been more expensive, my services deleted and I was charged for what should have been included.  26 January is when this all started.... problems pulling a 'stupid phone' off my account made it impossible to put me into the 4gb shared plan (Excuse #1 - and I've heard many more in the multiple calls to VW)  Every agent makes Promises Promises...  Every agent ASSURES me that they have taken care of it, and it will be corrected - and that they will put notes on the account so anyone looking at it will KNOW what had happened...  Today I'm told that there are NO NOTES!!   I'm ready to walk away from VW - a relationship since the early 1990s means nothing to them.....  How can I get my service straightened out, guaranteed?  How can I get VW to take some responsibility for their inept handling of this customer?  15+hours because VW doesn't do their job is 14.5 hours too long!

        UnhappyonCapeCod,
    Goodness gracious! You've been through a lot, and I'm so sorry to hear of your experience. 15 hours is definitely way to long. I would like to review your account for options to see what can be done. I have already requested to follow you.

  • Partner in service contract and ibase

    Here is a data migration scenario, migration service contract from legance to crm:
    1. warranty data and sold to partner will be migrated to ibase in crm
    2. legancy contract will be migrated to crm contract, which also contains a sold to party
    So my question is whether there is a dependency about sold-to party between service contract and ibase,
    - for example., here is ibase contain product: A,B,C, but when create a contract for product D, which does not exist in a ibase, so whether this contract can be create, whether it can look up the if product exist in ibase according to sold to party,
    And whether it can prevent to create new contract for D?
    Many thanks.

  • Difference between Service order and service contract

    Hi
    Can any one plz differenciate the service contract and service order??
    why only service contract products can carry object list entries and why not service products??
    Thanks in advance.Appriciated with points.
    Regards,
    Nagi Reddy

    Service Order:
    A service order is a short-term agreement between service provider and service recipient, in which one-time services are ordered by the service recipient and resource-related billing performed upon completion. Such an order could be, for example, to maintain or repair some equipment, making it necessary to send a technician along with spare parts. These services are usually billed.
    Service Contracts:
    Service contracts are outline agreements with business partners which define services offered for a particular period. You support service contracts by processing contract-based and planned services.
    Service contracts represent long-term service agreements with customers in relation to the content and scope of services guaranteed within specific tolerance limits for certain parameters, for example, within a predefined timeframe.
    I hope this helps

  • Creation of Sales Order and Service Contract from Inbound IDOC

    Hi Experts,
    My requirement is to create a Sales Order as well as a Service Contract from one Inbound IDOC. I am getting the Inbound IDOC from a third Party. The message type is ORDERS and Basic Type is ORDERS02. How ever i am using an extension type IDOC which carries all the required data for Sales Order and Service Contract. My requirement is like, to create a Sales Order first.
    I have created a Z FM which is attached to the Process Code and subsequently to the message type. Inside the FM i an calling FM 'IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS' for creation of Sales Order. After that i am changing the IDOC data for the Document Type. I am changing the document type which is responsible for Contract Creation.
    Then I am again calling the FM 'IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS' for creation of Contract with the help of IDOC data. But here the Contract is not getting created. It's getting failed during the Batch input session.
    I need to solve this problem as soon as possible. Please help me. If there are any other options also please share.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Priyabrata

    Actually there is problem with BDCDATA. Inside the FM it's calling transaction with help of BDCDATA. If i am creating a Sales order or contract alone its creating successfully. But when i am trying to create both, it's retuning sy-subrc '1001' after calling the transaction on the second attempt. Is there any problem with BDCDATA like we can't handle with less time gap? Please help and give your inputs.

    Hi,
    It is not clear to me if you are working with sapscript or smartforms.
    You have only to find a variable which identifies the kind of invoice
    I do not know that variable so i use an example variable
    for sapscript:
    /: IF &VBDKR-FKTYP& = '1'
    /  INVOICE
    /: ELSE
    /  SERVICE ORDER
    /: ENDIF.
    In a smartform you can also do something like that.
    but There you work with conditions (eq, BOOLEAN)
    You have only to find the right variable
    success,
    Gr., Frank

    Hi,
    Contract is outline purchasing agreement where you have a contract with the vendor,may be a for a predetermined quantity or predefined value. So everytime you need the matl,  you need to make PO ref the contract asking for the delivery of the matl. In such instance when PO is ref with contract its called contract release orders or call off orders. So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME51,ME21 & MIGO,
    Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
    With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.So Process are ME01, ME11, ME31K with aggnrement type, ME38 & MIGO,
    Service order or service PO is created with item Category "D" and an account assignment category as per ur requirement. U can not enter ur material here only u have to maintain short text of material. Example: You want to clean the boiler and u given contract to your Vendor. Vendor sends quotation mentioning that Rs.100/hr/Man head. Now how you will measure the cleaning activities of furnace? You can pay to contractor based on the hourly basis/ man head spent in cleaning activities. So in this case create the Purchase Order mentioning "Cleaning" in the short text in Item overview(Acc assignment ' K' or “C” or “P” and Item category 'D) and item details " Man Head" Service No , Gross price - Rs.100.00 and unit - hour ( or pick from Service master) and Quantity-number of hours spent by all man head.
    The steps to create Service PO are:
    1) Maintain Item Category as D & account assignment such as cost center “K”or slaes order”C”
    2) Keep material code field blank.
    3) Enter description of service & other fields in the PO Item Overview level. Press Enter.
    4) System will prompt you to maintain services at Item Level. Maintain your service master number / service description & other fields (quantity / rate /)
    5) Save the PO.

  • Contract and release order for service: connection and field selection

    Hi Experts,
    I have some questions about contract and release order (PO against contarct) for services.
    A -I want ot know if there is any standar way to oblige the creation of a release order to a contract. I mean i had some users  that create a release order w/o reference to the contract and it works fine anyway. The document is a copy of the NB. I cant find the way to reference the 2 purchase document clearly.
    B - Using a release order, when copying the item from contract catalogue by clicking the service selection icon,  description and net price are correctly copied:  the description is not modifiable  but the net price can be change by the user. Can some body explain me where to modify this setting? where is the field selection and where in SPRO step by step please,
    thanks in advance

    ... Nobody is so nice to suggest me any solution?  
    For the point A probably the only way is user-exit.... but for B i don't have any idea, please let me know

  • Service Contract and Repair procedure

    Hi,
    I am struggling with a Service mgmt issue.
    There is a service contract in which we maintain the terms and conditions of service (bill plan) and also give the rates for service.
    Now when i run a repair at plant scenario wherein i bring back the defective matr. for repairs, the service notification is connecting to that contract and takes the contract number.
    What is fail to understand is that how do the contract terms and conditions affect the repair process.
    The process i am following is as follows:
    1)Created a contract for the C/s and material to give service for one year and the customer paid one time for that through billing the Contract type WV.
    2) For the repairs, i did the following
    Service notification - repair Order - return delivery of defective matr to service center - Service order creation - carrying the repair (added a spare part also) and technically completed the order - Delivery of repaired matr to customer - Resource related billing request creation (DP90) - Billing the repair order - Settlimg the Service order - Settling the Repair order.
    In all this process, i do not find any link between the Contract and repair cycle. Ideally since the customer has paid for the service one time, we should only charge for whatever spare parts are used.
    Hope I have been able to explain it. looking forward to any help on this issue
    Thanks
    Arijeet

    HI Arijeet,
    conditions and the price agreements for the service material and materials will be picked from the service contract into the repair order.
    regards
    Ravi.
