Documentation of Service Contracts API -- OKS_COVERAGES_PUB

Hi All
We have a requirement in the OKS Service Contracts Module, in which a Concurrent Program has to be created, such that it will detach the old coverage template and attach the new coverage template to the existing contracts.
We tried with the Standard API (“OKS_COVERAGES_PUB.DELETE_COVERAGE”, “OKS_COVERAGES_PUB.CREATE_ACTUAL_COVERAGE”)
but we are not able to get the desired results.
The API Works for only those service line ids of the contract which has the status “Entered”. For service line ids of status other than “Entered” the API throws an error.
Error Message Details – (x_return_status – ‘E’, x_msg_count – 1, x_msg_data – ‘OKC’)
We don’t know exactly the limitation of the API and there is no detail available about these API in both Service Contracts Development and API reference guide.
Kindly provide me some documentation related to this API to this mail id [email protected]
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks & Regards
Sivakumar

Hi,
i want to add the lines and covered product to the existing contract.
Cuold you please suggest me the API for the same.
Thanking you in anticipation.

How to get price list line id for service contract line(subline)

Does some one know how to find a price list line id for service contracts line (sub line)?
There is actually a column in table okc_k_lines_b which is called price_list_line_id, but it looks like it is never used (all columns values are NULL). I have tried to investigate reprice API's which are used in contracts authoring form, but they are too huge and it didn't lead to nay result. There is a way (bad hack), by calling OKS_QP_INT_PVT.COMPUTE_PRICE it is possible to get price list line id by which contract line is priced, it would be kina fine if I would need to find line id for some rows, but it wont work for thousands!
Is there some proper way how could I get price list line id by which is service contract line priced?

Hi,
Check out the following query that gets the price_list_id on subline_level and more.

How to create service items and sales order for service contracts.

Hi,
I have created item using Purchased Item template and one more item(service item) using service /warranty program template. Then I have used these items to create sales order with service item in it and closed that order , but Iam not getting this order in service contracts. Is this right way to create sales order for service items. I
item name:- personal_computer
copied from purchased order template. service is enabled and install base is checked and enable service coverage is enabled.
item name:- service_item
copied from service /warranty program template
service is selected to inactive,
service type: service
duration: 1 year
template: Gold
and saved the item.
Then I have used these two items in sales order for service contracts. But that sales order is not hitting in service contracts. Is there any error with item creation.
Thanks,
Bharat G.

BOM IN CRM Only for Service Contract

Hello
We want have a BOM explosion working in CRM for service contracts
Here are the details :
We have replicated the materials from ECC to CRM. We are not maintaining any BOMu2019s in ECC.
The idea is that we maintain the BOM Structure in CRM only, as we donu2019t want to have the Items as a billable item in a position, only for information purposes (or later on for metering)
We have maintained the product category for the header product in CRM so we are able to maintain depended components
(Relationship type SCDEC S Dependent Components (DC) )
Not we are able to assign dependent component to the header material
Item category groups:
We understand that the standard item category groups that should be used are ERLA for the header product and LUMF for the Item product.
In order to support the same functionality for the given item category group , maintained at the product level in ECC we copied the same setting for the item category group from the standard to
our settings.
Standart
Tx type     Item Cat Group          item category     structure scope
TA             ERLA                TAQ           A single level Explosion of Structured Product
TA         LUMF                TAP                   A single level Explosion of Structured Product
So we have copied TAQ to ZTAQ and TAP to ZTAP.
ZS01 is a copy of SC (service contract)
Tx type     Item Cat Group          item category     structure scope
ZS01     ZLEI                       ZTAQ          A single level Explosion of Structured Product
ZS01     LEIS                       ZTAP          A single level Explosion of Structured Product
But when we use a header product in the service contract, we cannot see the BOM is exploding.
We have also created some products in CRM with exactly the same Item Category groups as the standard and when we create a standard order (TA) in CRM, the BOM is NOT exploding.
Questions:
Is it possible to have the BOM setup only in CRM, like we try to do it?
Is it possible to use our own item category groups in CRM more is the functionality only working with ERLA and LUMF?
Is it possible to use the BOM Explosion in Service contracts as well ?
What steps are we missing to get the BOM explosion in CRM ?
Thank you for your help

Thanks Nablan, I could do that for multiple header coming in file. But I have a question for you on BAdI ALM_ME_006_GOODSMVT. I have implemented this BAdI , and this BAdI is called by a function Module ALM_MEREP_006_CREATE. When I test this FM giving the Material , Orderid and Movement type entries, this BAdI is triggered when giving a breakpoint. I've given this code for changing the movement type to 961. Cause the stanadrd scenario does not maintain Movement type 961 in Mobile Asset Management. The Movement type 961 for unplanned Materials comes to SAP and changes to 261 as maiantained by TCOKO table. To bypass this & retain the movement type 961 in SAP I'm using this BAdI. Currently this is what I'm doing and am stuck in the method interface how do I call the method.

Automatic invoice generation for service contract

Hello,
I want to create the automatic invoicce generation for service contract based on the order.
whenever i raise service contract order system should create the invoice automatically.
could please let me know the settings?

Hi JP Reddy
You can schedule VF04/VF06 for your requirement, such that VF06 will run every 15/30 minutes and will generate billing document for your contracts automatically.
Else go for Z extension development which will assign as output type to your contract and once triggered it will create invoice.
try and revert

Hi,

You can assign at service level.

Hiya...
Billing Plan for Milestone Billing
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine    100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description    % Value Billing Block   Milestone   Billing Status
01-10-94     Contract      10 10,000      -             x           x
01-03-95     Assembly      30 30,000      x             x
01-04-95     Maintenance   30 30,000      x             x
01-05-95     Acceptance    30 30,000      x             x
01-06-95     Final invoice ..    ..        x
Network/Activities
Milestone    Estimate      Actual
Assembly     01-03-95      01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance   01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
    planned billing date for the date
Keep Sapping

Need Help in Oracle Service Contracts API -- OKS_COVERAGES_PUB

We have a requirement in service contracts module, wherein we have to delete the old coverage template of service line of a contract and attach the new template with the service line.

Error in BAPI RETURN for Service Contract

Hi,
I get an error in the BAPI Return for the Uploading the Service Contracts by LSMW. The Error Message is E BS No status object is available for &.Also want to know can we upload multiple line of header text for a Contract by this BAPI. If so then how would I do this , as the BAPI structure BAPISDTEXT has textline upto 132 characters. And I am take only one file in LSMW where the header & details come alongwith text. Or could also tell me the file structure of for the data upload. The legacy system sends multiple text in the header for a Contract.For Eg.
Header1 Detail1 Text1
HEader1 Detail2 Text2
Header1 Detail3 Text3
So I would need this text1TEXT2text3 in the Header Text of the Contracts. Or do I need the change the file structure. Many thanks for your time and help.

Proforma invoice for Service Contracts

Hello,
I know the invoice types F5 for order related proforma and F8 for delivery related invoice. Now I'm looking for possibilities to create a proforma invoice based on a Service contract (Order Type WV) as a periodical invoiced sales order.
I tried to use proforma invoice (type F5) with Service contract but the billing plan will be set on status C (completely processed) so that the same period can not be invoiced again with the real commercial invoice. The billing status in the sales order has been changed as well with the proforma, which should not be the case as the proforma should just generate a printout.
Does SAP offer anything or how can I setup customizing to be able to create proforma for periodical sales orders?
Kind regards
Rafael

Hello,
Thank's for the information.
Finally I tried to copy our existing invoice type and set it up like F5 but the problem is still that the billing plan periods are set to status C - completely processed. The accounting side is OK as no accounting document is being created.
But with this billing plan situation it would not be possible to create first the proforma invoice for one Period and then later create the real commercial invoice for the same period.
Any ideas what I can setup to avoid this problem? I thought of chancelling the proforma after creation so that the billing period will be opened again, but this is no user friendly or professional solution.
Thank's in advance for your ideas.
Kind regards
Rafael
