Entering time sheet for external service employee

Hi all,
My scenario is,
I created a external service for my network in the project. PR has been created. I've converted the PR into PO(Service) and then i maintained a HR master and assign the PO details. But when i try to enter the time sheet for that employee i couldn't.Anyone can explain the process flow for this scenario please.
Thanks

Once you create external service PO, the same should have been assigned to HR master. Try to create as group so that time entry can be done conveniently.
Check the below links. I guess, you are using CAT time entry transaction to create Service entry sheet. Use CATM transaction to create time entry.

Error when trying to enter time data for hourly employees using CAT2

Hi Experts!
I'm trying to enter time data for an absence type using CAT2 for hourly employees and it's giving me an error saying "for attendance type, function or/and one of the URA is required".
I'm not sure what that means, the system has no functions available. Entering time data for full-time salaried employees is working just fine.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

hI,
Firstly check infotype 0315
In that check sender cost centre
Next chek whether the Attendent / Absende Tyep which you are trying to enter is configured
That meas it should pop up (F4) when u try to enter using CAT2
in the Attnendence /Abence field

Inspection lot for external service

Hi Gajesh/ Sujit/shyamal/ all
we are planning to use service master for external vendor's service, i have couple of questions
please share your experience, if anyone of you come across this kind of requirement
1. is it possible to create an inspection lot for external service?
2. we want to capture / validate the vendor's external service, weather it is accepted or not? sometime we need to enter quantitative value also
3. is there any setting or config for assign /create inspection lot for service master?
what I know is without material master we cannot create inspection lot but i don't know about service master.
thanks
Sami

Best practise for external service when amount is not sure

Hi friends ,
What could be the best practise from the PM side when we want to send an equipment for external repair
and the service cost is not sure .
Also if we will create only service PR and not PO then there could be some legal problems while sending the equipment outside.
What I am thinking is to create a service PR -> PO and then setting the actual cost while invoicing .
Is it fine ?
We would prefer if we can take some print out of the external service mentioning following data through standard SAP :
1) Vendor Name
2) Our Co name .
3) Address from where the equipment is dispatched
4) Address where equipment is to be sent .
5) Contact No .
6) some Dates
Any suggestions.
Regards
AM

Hi,
it is not necessary to enter the exact amount for external service in PM order ,
exact amount must be confirmed during service entry sheet ml81n
or it also be adjusted during miro ( invoicing )
and for prininting , most of the part as u said are covered in standard printing of Maintenance order, PR and PO
otherwise there must be customized PO printing in ur organisation that can be change if ur requirements does not meet

Hi
T165A is used for 'Services Pricing'.
Please note that for Services PO, you will have two pricing schema.
1) At PO-Item Level : RM0000 (or whatever you define in schema determination in Purchasing ->Conditions IMG and assign in your vendor master)
2) At service line level : Based on settings in T165A.
If you check in Services level conditions screen and click on Analysis, you will find that ZS0001 is triggered.

Default GL account (cost element) for external service contracts

Hi everybody,
question about GL being defaulted from contract for external services
The requirement is to have GL (cost element) being defined per service sub item defaulting to work order. Account assignment is unknown, because the costs might be settled later to cost center or AFE or else.
You could default cost element either through material group (which doesn't enable cost element to contract) or with account assignment category 'K' or 'F' which do not suit, cause the former requires cost center, that is unknown yet, whereas the latter requires assignment to order which doesn't make sense at all. Theoretically, it could be done with acc assignment cat 'U' , but cost element is not enabled with that category..
I was assuming that cost center which you are required to enter along with cost element while creating service sub item referring to some sort of internal accounting. The system also requires service sub item acc assignment category being aligned with requisition (which is 'F') and would in fact create PR referrencing actual work order number. But still, doesn't it make sense having contract referencing another order.. Also, we don't use default values for PM ext operation data.
So, the question is how to accomplish the requirement with Unknown assignment category? what is the point of defining cost center in the contract in given circumstances? Is there any work around exists?
Thanks in advance
Sergey

Hi,
Try this: IMG -> Plant Maintenance and Customer Service -> Maintenance and Service Processing -> Maintenance and Service Orders -> Functions and Settings for Order Types -> Create Default Value Profiles for External Procurement.
After that assign it to order type: Default Values for Task List Data and Profile Assignments.

Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services

Hi,
I need to uncheck the field GR-Based IV (EKPO-WEBRE) in the SERVICE PO but I receive the message :
"Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services"
I want to allow the user to receive Invoices (MIRO) before the Service Entry (ML81N).
Thanks.
Carlos Durazo

HI,
This is a "hard coded" option and cannot be removed.
If you want to be able to post invoices for services before the GR (acceptance) then you could consider using "normal" POs for these (without item category "D") abd use material masters (DIEN material type) or describe the service in text.
External services POs are only really suited to complex services or services that need a two step GR process (Service entry and acceptance).
Far too many organisations use the service entry sheet option when "normal POs" would be far better.

in relation to my bachelor thesis I was wondering if there is API or another way to set the backend systems destinations for external services dynamically and not by entering the information in CAF Runtime.

Limit PO Err Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services

Hi,
I am having a problem while replicating free text Limit PO's to R/3 in SRM 4.0 SP 13. The issue is while creating Free Text Limit SC with the "Confirmation and Invoice" option checked in, the PO's get created in SRM but fails while replicating to R/3 and in RZ20 errors as "Combination of GR/IR control not allowed for external services" although in vendor master i don't have check for the field "GR-Based Invoice Verification".
On the contrary while creating SC with the "Invoice Only" the PO is successfully replicated to R/3 with item category as B for limit orders.
Now i have noticed if i make changes in the vendor master data i.e. check the flag "GR-Based Invoice Verification" then the PO in my first scenario gets replicated successfully and also with respect to the second scenario but it gets replicated in both the scenarios as item category "D".
As far as SRM standard it should have ideally behave like the below:
Limit SC with GR AND Invoice -> item category D
Limit SC with invoice only -> item category B.
Now my question is why do my PO's fail in R/3 in the first scenario and also if i check the flag in vendor master for GR-Based Invoice verification then in the second scenario the item category is "D" instead of "B".
Thanks in Advance.

In the Limit PO:
we are able to create Limit PO from a shopping cart.The follow on documents in ECC, it is creating a PO with Item category "B" and the "invoices" are only possible.
The Issue:
The Client wants the Confirmation/GR functionality to be enabled and the Invoices.
but for Limit PO, with follow on documents--"Confirmation" is checked, we have a error messagecombination of GR/IR is not allowed for external services".
Is there any addition configuration or steps involved.

Enter the price for the service item

Dear Experts,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 and we have upgraded our system with Service pack 7.Created a limit SC and approved at all levels. After approving SC system created PO in SRM but did not replicate to backend ECC system. When I looked PO in edit PO mode and system throws an error message "Enter the price for the service item".
Have any body faced this issue? If yes please guide me how to fix this issue or Suggest me any useful link or OSS messages.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Umakanth

Hello,
I assume you are using a Product category configured for Extended Classic scenario.
In this case a limit item in SC creates limit item in PO(in SRM). But when this PO is replicated to R/3, it always creates item with type 'D' for limit item in PO.
Now with respect to error message you get, can you check if you have specified all LImits (Overall value, Expected value etc)?
You can also try creating a PO directly in SRM with limit item (use same Product category as above) and see if it replicates.
If you get the same error, please raise a OSS message for SAP.
Thanks,
Sushil

Billing for External Services to Customer

Hi All,
Please advice how to bill customer for External Services like civil work etc.
My client uses services from external companies so if they have contract with customer for that,after completing the work they want to bill it to customer ,pls advice.
Muzamil

Muzamil,
If you are using projects, you can create an external or service activity depending upon whether you are entitling the vendor to perform some work or a service. Once you create and release the network activity, a purchase requisition is created, which then will be converted into a purchase order by your purchasing department. The purchase requisition/order commitment will appear on the network activity (project) and when the vendor sends you a goods receipt/invoice (depending on configuration), your project receives the cost. Then, depending on how you are billing your customer, you could incorporate these costs also into your customer billing.
If you need further explanation on billing, please write back with details about how you are billing your customers currently (if based on a project).
Regards,
Venkat.

Can i use time capsule for external h drive and also for time machine?

Can i use time capsule for external h drive and also for time machine?

Hello, vascocaco.
If I understand correctly, you're wondering if you can use your Time Capsule's internal hard disk both for Time Machine backups and as an ordinary drive. Is this your question?
You can, but Time Machine backups may take longer.
To do it, you should partition your Time Capsule's hard disk to create one volume for the backups and one for other files.
