ECC ehp4 A&D Subcontracting in combination with valuated sales order stock

Hello Experts,
a customer's Equipment (serialized material) is received in a valuated sales order stock (special stock E) and must be delivered to a third party service provider in subcontracting, with relevant spare parts (special stock O). The proces is originated in the Customer Service module where a "Returns and Repair" scenario supports the material return (inbound delivery) from Sales order type RAS Repairs / Service, on the plant, in a valuated sales order stock. Based on a repair procedure a Service order is created from the Repair order to track repair activities which are mainly executed at the workshop (planning plant). Our customer needs to deliver the component to an external service provider. Service order and Repair order have both a PS WBS account assignment.
Tracking of vendor's stocks levels with related deliveries and outputs is a must for the customer. Main Equipment to be repaired is stored in the sales order stock A. Components are stored in a different plant, in (valuated) project stock.
We activated the relevant business functions for Maintenance and Service processing in the Aerospace & Defense industry (MRO) including LOG_EAM_ROTSUB, A&D Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul AD_MRO_CI_1, Material Exchange with ATP Check AD_MRO_CI_2, Rotables/Sharing of Spare Parts, Subcontracting Improvements AD_MRO_CI_3 with exclusion of LOG_EAM_ROTSUB_2 for which EHP5 would be required.
The result is an error (AD_SUBCON094) that occurs when you try to create the subcontracting purchase requisition stating "You are using Subcontracting for MRO processes. During maintenance of the purchase requisition item or purchase order item, you set the account assignment to a PM/CS order. If you are additionally using a valuated project or sales order you would have two real accounting objects, therefore this combination of account assignment and special stock is not allowed.
Choose a different account assignment or a non-valuated special stock."
I'm also investigating on note 863154 - A&D subcontracting components from special stock. This note states that components must be on the same special stock which seems preventing again the above mentioned scenario. Please advise if you already implemented a similar process and if you have any way to support the same.
Thanks,
Stefano

Stefano,
Do you have a solution for this?

  • Third party process with Valuated sales order stock

    Hi All,
    We have third party sales order process with valuated sales order stock. The problem is that in the theird party PR which is triggered directly from the sales order it determines a stock account which is assigned to the BSX key in OBYC.
    But since this is third party processing as per my understanding a consumption account assigned to key GBB-VAX (since account assignmnt category is X) should get determined, so that when the GR is done against the PO a consumption posting is done in the background.
    I am not able to understand if the system is determining the stock account due to the fact that it is valuated sales order stock and if so, what should happen after GR. Should we have a stock created for the material which is physically directly delivered to the customer?
    Regards,
    V S

    Hi,
    Check GBB-VKA which is defined in OME9 for your ''E'' Account Assignment Category that SAP will debit upon GR posting
    Also check "X" GBB-VAX and the G/L account assignment in OBYC
    The posting on GR should be debit KBS -Credit GR-IR

    Hi,
    there are 3 types of scenarios in MTO.
    In Two scenarios Sale Order would be cost object - (Non-Valuated Sale orders stock and Valuated Sale Order stock with Sale order being Cost Object)
    In third scenario (Valuated Sale Order Stock without Sale Order controlling), Only Production Order is the Cost Object.
    In all the cases wherever the Sale Order is the cost object, Sale Order is the final Receiver.  Only the difference is that in valuated sale order stock, stock entries would be passed to FI and in non-valuated sale order, no goods movement for FG will be there.
    Please let me know if you need further details in this regard

  • WIP FOR REPETITIVE MANUFACTURING WITH VALUATED SALES ORDER

    Dear All,
    We are in the process of implementing Repetitive manufacturing with valuated sales order(MTO). I want to clarify whether in this scenario WIP will be generated.
    Since, at the time of final backflushing, what ever GR done for finished goods, the GI for its components will be done automatically. The components will be issued based on the BOM. I think in this scenario WIP will not be there.
    Please tell me whether i am correct.

    Thanks. I have another scenario. My client wants to transfer all cost of HR,Admin, finance etc and other indirect production cost center cost to production cost center. I mean they want to charge on the product. I have to production cost center. Client will give me the basis for allocating the cost. I have to do assessment and distribution for cost allocation
    But, I want to clarify how do i include the admin, hr or finance and indirect production cost center cost in cost component structure if i do the above process.
    How to do the cost splitting.

  • MM Account determination with valuated/non valuated sales order stock!

    Hi All,
    I have been trying to set up MM account determination in our project for sales order assigned POs.What I have observed is that when I have a PO with sales order assignment and according to requirement class (coming through reqt type) in sales order it is valuated sales order stock then in the PO we get the stock account determined through BSX key. But when it is non valuated sales order stock we get a different account assigned through GBB-VKA key. In both the cases the account assignment category in the PO is "E". 
    Can someone please explain what is the connection between valuated/non valuated sales order stock and MM account determination and if what is happening is right from account determination point of view?
    Regards,
    V S

    These are two different postings:
    BSX: stock posting
    GBB: Offsetting entry for stock posting
    Stock posting (BSX)
    This transaction is used for all postings to stock accounts. Such
    postings are effected, for example:
    -   In inventory management in the case of goods receipts to own
        stock and goods issues from own stock
    -   In invoice verification, if price differences occur in
        connection with incoming invoices for materials valuated at
        moving average price and there is adequate stock coverage
    -   In order settlement, if the order is assigned to a material with
        moving average price and the actual costs at the time of
        settlement vary from the actual costs at the time of goods
        receipt
    Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB)
    Offsetting entries for stock postings are used in Inventory
    Management. They are dependent on the account grouping to which each
    movement type is assigned. The following account groupings are
    defined in the standard system:
    -   VKA:     for sales order account assignment
             (for example, for individual purchase order)

  • Material Ledger Functionality with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock

    We are in the process of setting up Make To Order (MTO) with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock. We currently use the Material Ledger in our other businesses that use Process Orders.
    Does the Material Ledger functionality support MTO with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock? I have been testing this and have not yet figured out how to get ML postings. We are using production orders that settle to sales orders. We do not bring this into inventory, the costs reside on the sales order.
    If this functionality does exist, I would assume I need to configure the Material Update Structure but I cannot find any documentation on this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Greg

    Hi Greg,
    no, material ledger will not be able to calculate and allocate actual costs for the sales order in the scenario you describe. It would of course, if you used the valuated sales order stock.
    Generally SAP sees in the valuated sales order stocks (avaliable since 3,1 or something) a great improvement and no real reason to use still the non-valuated scenario.

  • External Procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock

    Hi Experts,
    I read the following in SAP Help,
    For external procurement with a Valuated Sales Order Stock, system generates a purchase requisition from the sales order.
    If you are using a valuated sales order stock, the externally procured material is assigned to inventory at the time of the goods receipt. If the sales order item is flagged as carrying costs and revenues, then when the goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place, the sales order item is debited with the costs of the externally procured material.
    My question is - it says costs of external procurement is debited to sales order item when " goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place"
           - but in my case, when I made the GR for purchase order (created automatically by sales order), system directly posted the procurement cost as actual costs to the sales order item. There is no delivery for sales order done still.
    So actually, when should the external procurement cost be debited to sales order item -- when GR for purchase order is done (or) when  goods issue for delivery to the customer takes place?
    Thanks,
    GAN

    Hi Rafi,
    Thanks for your reply. I understand the problem now.
    Material which comes from prod order is posted statistically (value type 11) to sales order when GR for prod order is done.
    Here, the issue is about a GR for purchase order (assigned to sales order). This material purchased is not used in any production process. Its a material which is supplied to customer along with main material produced in house.
    In purchase order, I have given the consumption account (which is cost element 1). Entry was Consumption Dr and GR/IR Cr. So, this posted as actual cost to sales order.
    I should have given inventory account in purchase order (with cost element 90).
    Its a mistake of using consumption account in purchase order.
    Thanks.
    GAN.

  • Valuated Sales order stock with CO Production Order

    Dear All,
    Our clinet is manifatcuring cables and having  2 plants, for one plant we have configured PP module so we are arriving valuated sales order stock, for another plant we didnt configured PP module so we planned CO production order, but where as we are not meeting our ultimate goal i.e; valuated sales order stock.
    So please guide me how to arrive valuated sales order stock  with CO Production Order.
    Thanks & Regards
    Narasimham T

    Valuated sales order stock is not dependent on PP, so you should be able to still to use it.  The requirements class associated with the sales order item determines whether the item is valuated sales order stock and it also determines the valuation method.  If you do not have Boms and routings in this plant you can still value the line item based on the material valuation in the material master. You can also value it based on a unit cost estimate that can be created seperately for the sales order item.  Justt make the desired settings in the requirement class.
    thanks,

  • Problem with PGI - Sales Order stock does not exist

    Hi
    I created order 58161 with 1 item line (10).

  • Using Subcontracting with Sales Order Stock

    Hi SDN Network,
    We use the made to order setup so run MRP with the Sales Order as the basis of the demand. After that, we avail the services of a subcontractor to assemble the finished goods although we supply the subassembly and raw matls.
    The PR generated during the MRP run has an account assignment of either M or E depending on the Item Cat in the sales order. From that PR, we create a subcon PO (item cat L). Problem is the PO generated is not showing up on the ME2O transaction. Does this mean that POs whose GR goes directly to Sales Order stock are not allowed in the system? I am able to post
    We would still want to retain the 'reservation' of the materials using the Sales Order stock. But does it follow that you cannot use Sales Order Stock with subcontracting?
    Did I miss out anything in the config? Is there another way to do this?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi
    Subcontracting issue to subcontractor (special stock O) and sales order stock (special stock E) both have special stock indicators and hence not possible.
    The process can be done as explained in the link below:

  • Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order

    We are in the process of upgrading from CRM 4.0 sp 6 to CRM 2007.  We have been using the Web IC and Mobile sales for the last 4 years.  In our original CRM 4.0 implementation (which was developed by SAP) we were using the CRM Web IC to create orders with R/3 using a couple of BADI's.  We are currently using R/3 4.7 and have plans to upgrade to ECC 6.0 next year.  I was just rereading some of the documentation in the upgrade guide and came across the following line:
    "The following software units are required for the Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order scenario:
    Mandatory:  IC WebClient with specific ERP Sales order viewset requires SAP ECC 6.0"
    This implies that the standard Interaction Center Sales with ERP Sales Order functionality will not work in our current landscape and that it would only do so when we upgrade to ECC.  What options are open to us to get around this?  What is the technical reason why this functionality doesn't work with SAP R/3 4.7?
    I can't imagine we are the first company to face this problem and I can't imagine everyone upgraded to ECC 6 - so what approaches have people taken to address this issue
    Thanks in advance
    Eddie

    In the last 12 months we upgraded from 4.0 to 5.0 in CRM and went form 46C to ECC 6.0.
    In your current landscape you can create orders in the ICWC where the order is created in CRM and replicates to R/3 4.7.     You have the replication scenarios X, Y, Z available to you.
    Your other option is using the ICWC R/3 order screen where you basically are calling R/3 transaction VA01 and entering the order in the ICWC but the order entry in being done directly into R/3 via your ITS server.  Looks almost exactly like VA01 in the gui.  The menu bars are a little different. 
    The ERP order looks like other ICWC screens,  is very sharp and users wouldn't know that they are entering the order directly in ECC.  We have been using it about 3 months.  More Pro's than Con's, if you have user exits in MV45AFZ* the ERP order still uses them  (but t-code isn't VA01 if you have condition If statements around t-codes).
    Hope this helps,

  • One-time customer with ERP Sales Order

    Hello experts,
    I am working with ERP Sales Order on SAP CRM 7.0 Ehp3.
    We have a requirement to start using 'one-time customer' process. I know there is a standard account groupd (CPD) on ECC side for this purporse.
    We would like to enter a sales order for occasional customers, without saving the customer in the master data table.
    I would like to have an occasional customer (example nº 1000 which should work like a CPD). I need to enter a sales order for this customer nº 1000, and once I enter nº 1000 on the BP number field, it should bring a Pop-up in order to enter the customer's information (address).
    This is working when I create the order via VA01 on ECC side, but the pop-up is not shown when I try to create the order on CRM via erp sales order.
    Any suggestions on how to make one-time customer work on ERP sales order? And how to make the pop-up work?
    Thanks in advance!
    Luis

    Thanks a lot, Rene! I have just read this SAP note and confirmed your information.
    Do you know of any workaround or development that could be done for this scenario using ERP sales order?
    If not, I will suggest using transaction launcher and create this type of order for the one-time customer directly in VA01.
    Once again, thanks for replying!

  • Subcontracting for Sales Order Stock and collective Transfer Posting

    Dear Expert,
    We have a scenario in subcontracting wherein the sales order the customer also wants to see the components and as such along with the Header item of subcontracting ,we also mention the components as another line item in the sane Sales Order.
    Now from the sale sorder two Po's are created onr for the subcontractor and one for the compnens to be procured.
    Since the components are procured on sales order stock there is noway we can issue it to the Vendor stock through Movt .Type 541.
    As per SAP AG WE CAN:
    "ubcontracting is also possible in conjunction with sales order stocks and project stocks. The subcontracting orders are account-assigned to a sales order or a WBS element. Thus, the components are not transferred (using a transfer posting) to the u201Cstock of material provided to vendoru201D but are directly withdrawn from the sales order stock or the project stock at the time of the goods receipt. The material manufactured is also posted to the sales order stock or to the project stock. The cost of subcontracting is then debited to the sales order or WBS element.Since the components are not transferred to the u201Cstock of material provided to vendoru201D, we recommend that you use a transfer posting to transfer the provided components to a new storage location (for example, 9999). This enables you to obtain an overview of those stocks that are physically located at the subcontractor.This information is particularly important when you carry out a physical inventory of the sales order stocks and project stocks."
    But my query is that how many such storage locations will be created for the subcontracting vendors.
    Secondly for the stock transfer from sales to storage location , we have lots of sales order, is dera way through which we can do bulk transfer rathar than clicking at new item everytime and then doing the transfer posting.
    your expert advice shallbe helpful in resolving a longtime pending issue , waiting for the response.
    Regards
    Jabeen

    This is a known issue, the system doesnt allow stock to have two special stock statuses at the same time.
    Your concern of having to make multiple storage locations is valid (since this is a configuration).
    I suggest you do the following
    - Configure a warehouse and a single storage type (say 001). Allow mixing of materials in a single bin
    - Assign this warehouse to a new storage location.
    - Create a bin for every sales order number in the warehouse.
    - When goods are moved to subcontractor, perform a transfer posting to the storage location, and perform a putaway to the respective bin. The putaway strategy can be tweaked using a user exit to go to the relevant bin. This way you do not have to enter the WM transaction for putaway.
    - To consume the stocks, you can use 231E movement (MB1A). On the WM side, the picking strategy can be enhanced so that the picking TO is generated with the correct source bin. Make sure the GL account and CO objects are as per FICO requirements.
    This way you can track the stocks binwise (bin level reports are available in WM), perform physical inventory and also consume the stocks from the relevant bin automatically.
    We had faced the same situation, and we ended up not having sales order stock at all.
    Hope this helps.
