Framework Order closing

Hi All,
When a framework order has been completed (i.e. service entry sheets and invoices are processed), how does the framework order get closed?
How when looking at me22n can we see that the framework order is now "complete" - can it be manually closed? The final invoice tab obviously doesn't stop any further receipting and their is no delviery complete indicator visible.

Hi,
Make "Delivery completed" indicator is "Opt.entry" in GR/IR control segment for Field Selection Key PT9F( OR your Field Selection Key you are using for Frame work order document type) in following path:
SPRO-> MM--> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Define Screen Layout at Document Level
For more check the SAP Note 735404

What is the diffrence between a blanket PO and a Framework order?

What is the diffrence between a blanket PO and a Framework order?

Hi
You have to use document type Frame work order for Blanket PO.
You can use blanket purchase orders to procure consumable materials or services for which it is not worth creating a separate purchase order for each procurement transaction.
Blanket purchase orders are usually valid for a longer period of time. You can directly post the invoices for the materials and services procured for this blanket purchase order.

Dear Chandu,
First settle the production order using the T Code CO88,and then close the production order.
Prerequisites
Prerequisites for setting the CLSD status are:
The order must have the status Released (REL) or Technically completed (TECO)

There can be no open purchase requisitions, purchase orders or commitments
There can be no future change records from confirmation processes

To fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D for Framework Order.

The use of framework orders (also referred to as blanket purchase orders) enables you to procure a variety of materials or services from a vendor up to a predefined maximum value (the value limit).
Instead of a specific delivery date, you specify a validity period for the order.
Goods receipts or the entry and acceptance of services performed are not necessary in the case of a framework PO and limit items.
The invoices are posted directly with reference to the purchase order, provided that the specified value limit is not exceeded. When the value limit of the PO is reached, or the validity period is exceeded, the system issues a warning message. It is possible to book the invoices, but these are blocked for payment.
During the phase of service performance, the cumulative u201Cactual" values (for the services actually performed) are continually updated in the underlying purchase. This enables you to monitor the progress of a procurement project on an ongoing basis. By comparing the "actual" value with the total value, you can always obtain an overview of the degree to which a budget for unplanned services or materials has been exhausted (i.e. see whether predefined limits have been reached or nearly reached).
So with the Framework Order type (FO) and item category u201CBu201D you get the error that it is not allowed to fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D.
Please suggest me the possible solution to fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D for Framework Order.
Best Regards,
Harisha

The Framework order type is specialy defined for lesser value procurements (ex: stationeries, cleaning services ....) which are all not worthy to create Material Master at all.
If you are very sure to fill the Material number, then proceed with some other document type.
In what circumstances you want to put material number in FO order?

Split Charging for PO-Framework Order with Item category B- Blank Item

Hi,
how can i make the system split the qty percentage/charging for Framework Order ,Charge to Project and Item Category of B- Blank item during PO creation/change. This functionality is behaving normal for a standard PO charge to P and item category is standard.
we are using ecc6 and we dont use any material master..
Thanks in advance..
She

Hi,
This can be controlled through account assignment category,
In SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Account Assignment > Maintain Account Assignment Categories > Double click on account asignment category > Fill the field distribution according to your requirement.
During PO creation, in item details, account assignment tab, you can give the split.

Framework Orders - Overall Limit

Hi SAP Experts!
I have an issue with Framework Orders and more specific on the Fields
"Expected Value" and "Overall Limit".
Below is an example of the issue:
I have an FO where the Expected Value is R$200.000,00 and the Overall
Limit is 1.510.100,00.
When it was released, the approval were done using the Expected Value and
not the Overall Limit. If the approval was defined using Overall Limit it
should be set up a diferent release strategy.
I would like to know if there is any way to put an blockage on Overall
Limit that does not accept value different of Expected Value. Both
values must be the same.
Could you please help me with that?
Kind Regards,
Tâmara Oliveira.

Logically if both expected and overall limit need to be same, then we dont need to have two different fields. Both fields have different purpose and it doesn't a best practise to make the system to equal overall limit and expected limit.
Is it not a best way to change your release to pick the overall limit instead of expected value?

Framework order with reference to contract

Dear All,
We make a service contract in which we maintained the short text and Qty as 1 AU in the item overview area and we maintained services in the "Services" tab in the "Item details" area.(We maintained actual quantity in this area)
Now we are creating a Framework order with reference to this contract . When we select services against this contract , system is copying all the service details from contract but qty as 1 AU.
Why system is not copying the quantity mentioned in the contract (Services tab, item details area) into the framework order ????
Nilesh

What ever Order you are creating W.r.to Contract , it may be Frame work or Purchase Order..
they are considered as Release order against that Contract..
a contract is agreement between two parties for a perticular period..
System will not expect you to use the entire Quantity at Once..
That is why the Quantity mentioned in the Contract will not be copied..
By default you will get Qty as 1...
You need to change according to your requirement..

Want to display no. of ser. orders closed with in 1 day and outside 1 day

Hi Experts,
Im displaying a summary report for Closed call.
I want to display the Number of Service Orders Closed With in 1 day and Out side 1 day.
For example:
Brand......ASP...................With in 1day...............................Outside 1 day
ABC1........ALPHA Tec...........24................................................5
BCD2..........BETA Tec.............76................................................7
The difference of days I have brought using 2 variables (1. is for closed date and 2. is for service order created date)
In the Formula Variable I have (Subscrated Closed date - Created Date)
I'm not very sure how to bring the count of the service order that are closed with in 1 day and outside 1day.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
This could be achieved through Data model level as well:
1. By assuming you have two date char Created date and closing date.
2. Create a char (On-time) flag and populate flag by ABAP coding if Closing - Created = 1 then field should be Check ("X").
3. Restrict your report with this Flag to find out number of Service orders on-time.
4. Define a counter KYF in your data model and maintain fixed value = 1 in your cube / ODS.
This is one approach let me know if any further information is required.

Blanket Purchase Order and the Framework Order

hi Gurus,
I wanted to know the following.
What is the difference between Blanket Purchase Order and the Framework Order.
Thanks.

Hi,
Framework order is also known as Blanket PO.....which we use for the procurement of Low value Material with Long term planning....It is used as Mini Contract....
Blanket Order:
Used for long validity period and with the provided value limit. By its name u201Cblanketu201D which covers to required long time? We use doc type FO(for long period) and item cat. B(for value limit).Goods receipts or the entry and acceptance of services performed are not necessary in the case of a blanket PO and limit items. The invoices are posted directly with reference to the purchase order, provided that the specified value limit is not exceeded. But manual entry of invoiced amount and invoiced quantity is required during LIV process.
Example: Procurement of stationary items.
Frame work order:
Framework order (FO) is a document type which is provided by the standerd SAP.
It can be used for the consumable material ( Which is having low value & where making GR is not of worth like C category item.) & called as blanket PO. Here we need to mntion the validity period & target value or quantity as a restriction as well as need to mention item category as a "b".
Also it can be used for the procurement of extarnal services (Item category "D" ). Here we need to do the entry of services which have been performed & need to accept the same whereas in blanket PO, GR is not required.
At the end i would tel u that Framework order is the document type which can be used as blanket Po & procurement of services.

Blanket purchase order and Framework order?

Dear Gurus,
what are the main differences between Blanket purchase order and Framework order?
Thanks..

Framework order is also known as Blanket PO.....which we use for the procurement of Low value Material with Long term planning....It is used as Mini Contract....
For making Blanket PO....you have to choose Order type: FO in ME21N....with Item category "B"(Limit)
For creating Blanket PO... You need not have to maintain material master.....Maintaining Acc.assignment Category in PO is mandatory....also you have to maintain Validity Period in Blanket PO...
As per SAP Best Practice.....for Blanket PO, GR is not possible.....you can directly post multiple Invoices for One Blanket PO....The validity and total Value of these Invoices for Blanket PO during LIV can be controled by tollerance keys LA and LD.

Framework order with account assignement U and item category B

Hi guys,
I have seen many thread regarding this topic but could not find my answer.
I want to create a Framework order (I can't use K forbidden on my project... long story) withAcc *** U and Itm B.
The thing is during Invoice verification all field regarding G/L account and cost center are grayed. So I can't populate those fields. And the systeme keep asking me for G/L Account !!
Is anybody already used Framework order with U and B and was able to populate G/L Account during MIRO phase??
Cheers
Guys

Hi,
For your scenario you have to do the changes in the customization.
For acc. ***. "U" tick the indicator for "AA Changable at IR" .
This will solve your problem.

Framework Order PO Invoice to be block if exceeded.

I am using framework order PO for invoicing planning. The problem is my user can perform invoicing more than total of invoice on PO. Example;-
Item: ABC
Quantity: 1
Net Price: $10
Invoice planning start from 01.01.2010 until 31.03.2010, this means for 3-month total of invoice is $30.
the problem happens when user perform invoicing more than $30. How to block invoice if invoice already fulfill or exceeded total of invoice on invoice planning on PO ?

Hi,
I would advice you to set up a tolerance key "LA" in the transaction OMR6 for your company code, but this limit check
does not work with parked invoices.
As described in note 134976:
For the tolerance checks, the system proceeds as follows:
LA Amount of blanket purchase order
The system determines the variance between the total from the value of
the purchase order item calculated up to now and the value of the
current invoice for the limit of the purchase order and compares this
variance with the percentage and absolute upper limits which are set.
Itwill check the individual invoice amount
against the Blanket PO Overall limit regardless of its parked or posted
status, but will not check splitted invoices amount if they are parked.
In the MM-invoice verification's processes,
as you create a new invoice (post it directly or as park) reference to
Blanket PO, or process (then post an created/parked invoice) reference
to Blanket PO, in these processes, if you input/change the invoice
item's amount or click button 'Post' to post the invoice, the system will make
tolerance check with the tolerance key 'LA'.
But, according to our standard concept, the system will make the check only
based on the invoice item's amount and the data 'Actual value', 'Overall
limit' in the Blanket PO.
Because the invoice item's amount in the
parked invoices would be not acculumated and saved into 'Actual value'
in the Blanket PO (it should happen only for posted invoices), the
amount in the parked invoice would be not considered in the tolerance
check.

Framework orders and item categories

In looking at framework orders it would seem there are 2 item categories that would be valuable for my client, B and D. In reviewing the configuration, I see the following differences.
Item cat. B
Material Required - Not Allowed
Addit.Acct Assignment - Mandatory
Inventory Management - Not Allowed
GR indicator firm - Changeable in PO
Invoice Receipt - PO Item Linked
IR indicator - Firmed in PO
Item cat. D
Material Required - Not Allowed
Addit.Acct Assignment - Mandatory
Inventory Management - Possible
GR - PO Item Linked
GR indicator firm - Changeable in PO
Invoice Receipt - PO Item Linked
IR indicator - Firmed in PO
What other differences are there between the two item categories? I heard that one would default the quantity to 1 and removes the GR... Can anyone validate this?
Also, I noticed when using a framework order, the validity date is not being checked where the system is allowing invoicing to occur past the validity date. Is there some place in configuration that we can have this tolerance checked? Please give details.
Thank you.
Nguyen

Hi,
In case of Item Category B, there is not GR in this case. And in case of Item Category D, you have to create Service Entry Sheet (it is must), which creates a GR document in the background.
Refer Following links for the above;

Framework Order After Goods Receipt

Hi,
I have a framework order which GR Non Valuated is checked and GR Bsd IV is unchecked. When goods receipt is performed, under PO history in the framework order, the value of the of the GR is shown as 0.
Is this standard in SAP? Am I right to say that this is the case because GR Non Valuated is checked? Amount will only be shown at IR instead.

Hi
Pl. Note that,As per SAP Best Practice,
For Framework Order with Item Category "B"....."GR Not Possible"
Only IR is possible.....
This details you can see in OLME ---> Define External Representation of Item Categories and go into details....

Framework Order.

Hi,
I have a situation:
The production order creates few purchase requisitions (from external processing key), these requisitions are standard and they do not have a material number. Its for a service we need to purchase.
It is easy to take these requisitions and convert them into one PO and work with it. But, my client does not want to use a PO. He wants to use a framework order. Is there any way we can connect these requisitions to a framework order?
Looking forward to your answers.
Will give points to answers that are helpful.
Thanks.

Hi Sandeep,
Frame work order is again a type a PO.This is used as a blank PO for a service to be done throughout a period. so ur clients requirements is correct.
what we can do just create a frame work PO by selecting the corresponding document type in ME21n and select the item as limits.
Now for the material we can enter just a description of the service to be done on the description tab since we are going to assign this to a cost center.
if needed even material group can be given .
and also enter the upper and lower limit of the value of the service that can be done once with the overall limit of the order in the item detail tab limits.
enter the cost centre and gl account no.
for this we can directly post the invoices, no GR or service acceptance entry.no account assignment should be there in PO.
while doing IV systems checks for the validity period and overall limit of that PO
hope this will give u idea
regards
raja
