Is it possible to compare vendor quotations with leadtime & payment terms?

Good day,
I am wondering if the system can be configured to compare vendor quotations on by criteria other than pricing? My client would want to compare vendor quotations received using lead time, terms of payment as well as pricing. Any ideas? If possible, how can this be achieved?

hi
Your requirement is fulfill with only scenario of vendor evaluation, but you can crate quotation ME41 maintain quotation & price comparison with ME49
To determine a vendor's price level, the system compares the vendor's effective price with the market price for the material.
The system first checks whether the buyer has maintained a market price for the material or the material group.
If not, the system calculates the market price which is equal to the average of the effective prices for all vendors supplying this material. Prices from purchase orders and prices for subcontracting are dealt with separately.
The system then applies the effective price for the vendor from the conditions.
The vendor's effective price is then compared with the market price and the percentage variance determined.
The system then assigns a score to the variance in accordance with the settings made in Customizing.
This score is valid for the material, that is, at info record level. Since the score the vendor receives for a subcriterion is based not on an individual material, but on the total of all the materials he supplies, the following steps are necessary:
The system repeats the comparison between effective price and market price for each of the vendor's materials.
The system calculates an average from the sum of the scores determined. This average represents the vendor's score for the subcriterion Price Level.

With holding tax base amount for 1099 vendors with discounted payment term

Hi Friends,
We have a below situation for 1099 vendors,
Some of the 1099 vendors are set-up in the system with payment term with discounts i.e. 2% if paid within 10 days
As per config, system posts with holding tax base amount at the time of posting payment.
With holding tax rate is 0%,
Based on modified net amount calculation
and
Cash discount calculation before w/tax calculation
When we have vendor with input tax, system excludes tax amount at the time of payment but for the with holding tax base calculation amount system does not exclude input tax type.
Which causes difference in 1099 misc vendors
Below is the example of how system calculates the amount.
Invoice $ 1000, payment term 2% if paid within 10 days. Input tax 7.25%
Payment going out=
$1000- $ 72.5(tax 7.25%) = $ 927.5 18.55 [2% discount] = $ 908.95 (payment amount)
With holding base calculation =
$ 1000 100 (2% discount) = $ 900
Difference between payment going out and with holding tax base = 908.98 900 = 8.98
Can some one please tell me how to get rid off this difference?
Moreover, please tell me if its normal to have 1099 vendors with discounted payment term.
Any thoughts on above situation will be helpful

Dear All
i am also having the same problem. The example is
Net invoice Value   = $ 100,000
Input Tax @ 15%   = $ 15,000
Total Invoice Value = $ 115,000
Cash Discount = 20% with in 20 days
On payment the system behavior should be
Debit Vendor invoice Value   = $ 115,000
Debit Cash Discount @ 20%    = $   20,000   ( 20% of the Net Invoice Value that is 20% of $ 100,000)
Credit W/H Tax deduction @ 3.5% = $ 3,325 ( 3.5% of 95,000 the Inv Value - Cash Discount that is $ 115,000 - $20,000)
Credit Bank Account = $ 91,675 ( Inv value - Cash Dic - W/H tax that is $ 115,000 - 20,000 - 3325 = 91,675)
However at the time of payment system is calculating tax as follows
Debit Vendor invoice Value   = $ 115,000
Debit Cash Discount @ 20%    = $   20,000   ( 20% of the Net Invoice Value that is 20% of $ 100,000)
Credit W/H Tax deduction @ 3.5% = $ 3,220 ( 3.5% of 92,000 the Inv Value - Cash Discount that is $ 115,000 - $23,000. This $ 23,000 is only calculated for W/H tax calculation that is 20% of $ 115,000 )
Credit Bank Account = $ 91,780 ( Inv value - Cash Dis - W/H tax that is $ 115,000 - 20,000 - 3220 = 91,780)
this is not the common practice when using the net base value in the system.
Can any one help me in this regard. I really have been stucked in this problem for many days

Sales order blocked for credit with status "Payment Terms"

Hi Experts,
Sales order is blocked for credit, as when i refer the t.code vkm3 or vkm1, the status of blocking showing as "Payment Term". Geenrally the status of credit block would be 'Old item', Dynamic check', value etc.
My question here is how the sales order is blocked with status "Payment Terms", and what is the role of payment terms in credit management.
regards
Vivek.

Hi Vivek,
The Standard Cr. management ( Automatic credit check) of SAP has Critical Fields Check - payment terms is one of them,
If it is being changed in sales order (other than maintained in Customer master) the sales order will go for credit block
Thanks

Cust sends EDI with incorrect payment terms

Hello SAP Gurus-
Do controls exists in SAP ECC 6.0 that will place orders on hold once customer sends order via EDI with incorrect payment terms? We have situations where customer is remitting EDI with net 45 and in customer master the payment terms are net 60.
They are going through the system and we don't know how to stop them. What can we do to control this? We would like the order to go on hold so that we can manage without the orders print and shipping. Is this a configuration change? If so, where?
Thank you!!

Hi,
In your payment Terms configuration, you need to enter 11 in discount percentage 2 as blank and discount days 2 as 11. Then system will not calculate discount from the 11th day. If you dont enter then system will populate the discount even after the discount date is over.
Hope this helps

Hi All,
we have a scenarion in SRM 7.0 system where the PO is ending up in error in SRM for a vendor. In BBP_PD the error message says "Enter payt terms" " enter GR Non Valuated".
Now in my SRM system i can see the PO has got the payment terms and PO is for single account assignment. i have generated the BAPI data for the BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and can confirm the erro is coming form backend and in the bapi the paymnet terms is correctly passed in the header record.
I am not sure why this error from backend.. have anyone encountered similar issue.
anything to check with paymet terms in backed. i have another payment terms working and few of them are not working.
cheers
Iftekhar Alam.

Note 1350184 - Payment terms from PO not transferred to backend
BBP_PDHGP-PMNTTRMS
Check payment term is available
Have you creted this payterm from SRM or pulled from ECC ?
Note 1350185 - Payment terms from PO not transferred to backend
check each data in BBP_PAYTERM in the value and match with ecc payterm table. some times some conditions are misinterupted in SRM

Vendor invoie for multiple POs with different payment terms

Hi,
We have a vendor which send a single invoice for multiple POs which have different payment terms. Now if we create a single invoice in MIRO, then only a payment term can be applied.
However user want to pay to the vendor corresponding to the PO terms.
Please let us know any way apart from creating multiple MIRO documents.
Regds,
Nand

Hi,
You can achieve so in standard SAP.
Go to OBY6 and activate the check box "Enable Amount Split" in your company code. Then in MIRO, a new tab will appear in the header as "Amount Split"
In this tab, you can split the vendor invoice in multiple lines with respective payment method and payment term.
I hope this will help you.

Post Vendor invoice with Down Payment via BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE

Hi Experts,
We have configured downpayment functionality for PO's. We have below process
Create PO with down Payment request -> Create down payment request -> Run payment program for paying down payment -> Post GR -> Post invoice with BAPI (considering down payments against invoice)
But unfortunately when I am trying to post PO invoice with downpayment details using BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE I do not see any fields related to down payment. Can some one confirm me if SAP has provided this functionality? if NO any workarounds?
Rgds,

Hi experts,

MM INVOICE created with different Payment Terms and 2 differents PO.

I will explain with an example to understand better the issue and why this could happen, (for the same Co.Code):
On 05.09.2011, 5203795529 was posted with payment terms D030.
At that time, PO #: 4501105395 was having payment terms D030 while PO #: 4501232207 was having payment term D031.
Invoice 5203795529 was posted successfully.
On 12.09.2011, 5203806574 was posted with payment terms D030.
At that time, PO #: 4501105395 was having payment terms D030 while PO #: 4501232207 was having payment term D031.
Invoice 5203795529 was posted successfully.
In OCT, user receives another invoice for this 2 POs (4501232207 & 4501105395) and trying to post MIRO again but this time, user encountered error 'Payment terms in purchase order 4501232207 differ from current terms'. In order to proceed, user has changed payment term for 4501105395 from D030 to D031 on 17.10.2011 and proceed with invoice posting without error. 5203878342 was posted on 17.10.2011.
The vendor always has the same Payment Term: D031
Now the question is, why user is able to post without any problem previously even though there's different payment terms on both POs and not now anymore?.
Thanks

Thanks Jayavar,
Nobody has changed anything, (I mean the PO Payment terms), until October in PO. 4501105395
The error message is when the user try to post with MIRO PO´s (4501232207 & 4501105395):
"Terms of payment in purchase order 4501232207 (always with Payment term D031), differ from current terms"
Message no. M8349
Diagnosis:
The terms of payment in the current invoice differ from those in the current purchase order 4501232207, other terms of payment were stipulated:
Terms of payment key D031
1st cash discount period 31 days 0,000%
Either you have selected more purchase orders with different terms of payment, or you have changed the terms of payment manually.
But the strange thing is in SEP, there's already this difference & there is no problem posting the invoice & the problem only comes when in OCT.
Thanks and Rgs

How to handle Order/Invoice with split Payment terms ?

Hi we are implementing 11.5.9 for one of our sites...
we have a situation wherein we charge the customer on placing the Order, on shipping the
goods and on their acceptance...
For example,Assume total order is $200,000. 10% on placing order; 20% on shipping: and 70%
when customer accepts.
10% - 20,000
20% - 40,000
70% - 140,000
We need to issue invoices at each stage too...
Can anyone suggest a way out ??
thanks in advance..

Hi,
After much thought, My knowledge took me to Customization way to this Scenario.
1. Define Order type to close immediately after delivery.
2. Design a Invoice Print report, which will bring details into a TEMP table from Order depending on Order status.
i.e. Order booked -- 1 line inserted into temp table with 10% of order amount and status as Booked.
The Invoice will be printed using this details and an interface program should fire, which will interface this line to ra_interface_lines_all.(Plan program as per your needs. This is just a test case I have taken)
3. On next run, after delivery, the Line status will change to Delivered, which will insert another line into TEMP table which current record flag 'Y'. Prints and Interfaces the invoices to AR.
Similarly next step.
Design of this TEMP table and other validations, you can discuss with Technical Consultant. I think, we can achieve this only with this minimum customization.
Standard application is just giving workarounds and not perfect solution to this.

Sridhar

AR Invoice with Installment Payment Terms

Hi to All,
We have an invoice where the payment terms are based on installment. The installment is for 18 months. Automatic cash receipts have been applied correctly for Installment 1 and Installment.
Our situation is this where we want to apply an On Account receipt to installment 3. When we query for the installment 3 invoice we are getting the following error message:
"FRM-41830: List of Values contains no entries"
Basically the the invoice is not being queried. We checked the invoice, it is complete but the installments 3-18 are open. What we like to know if we can preform an on account receipt to an installment invoice...if so what setup do we need to look for.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Bharat,
Thanks for your reply. We checked the invoice payment schedule in the tables are 4th to 18th are all open. We have also verified this thru the forms and same appears.
So when we go to receipts and attempt to apply on accounts funds to the invoice. We cant query for the invoice. The following oracle forms message appears: "FRM-41830: List of Values contains no entries"

Payment terms applicability for Debits in Vendor account

Hi all,
Whenever we credit a vendor account with defined payment terms, the net due date for that transaction will be calculated as per payment terms. I just wanted to check if the same logic applies even when we debit vendor account with defined payment terms.
When I tested this in our systems i.e by debiting vendor account with defined payment terms, found that baseline date was only getting picked as net due date & not the actual date as per payment terms. I wanted to confirm if this is a SAP standard feature or a customised feature.
Regards,
Santosh

Hi,
I do not have documentation other than the F1 Help for the Field Inv.Ref
This explains it though.
Number of the Invoice the Transaction Belongs to
For line items which are related to another line item, this field contains the number of the partner document.
Use
In the standard system the field is used for:
Credit memos which refer to a particular invoice item
Subsequent invoices for an invoice item
Partial payments for an invoice item
Partial clearings of down payments.
In the first two cases mentioned, the terms of payment are copied from the cross-referenced invoice item into the item currently being processed. This ensures that items due on the same date are paid together by automatic payment.
A special rule applies to credit memos which have a "V" in this field. The due date is determined in the same way as for an invoice. If the field is empty (containing neither a document number nor a "V") the due date is the baseline date for payment.
Kind regards

Issue with Vendor Payment Terms

Hi Gurus,
We're facing an issue with the Payment Terms of a Vendor in our SRM system.
In R/3 the Vendor has Payment Term 'A' but when we create a PO for this vendor it appears with Payment Term 'B' (PT from SRM I think)
The correct PT is 'A' (the one from R/3).
Does anyone know if the PT are saved in SRM side also and where to check this information??
I can check in R/3 with code XK03 but from SRM side -in code BP- I can't find PT data for this vendor.
Regardss.

Hi,
Payment term is different in PO when compared to ECC, the following could be anyone of the reasons :
01. PLease check the payment term value in CONTRACT; if you assigned contract as SOS in PO for ECS
02. Please check he tpayment term value in BBPMAININT where you can maintain different payment terms manually.
I hope the above information is very helpful to you.
Thanks

MIRO for multiple PO's with different Pymt Terms (Same vendor)

Hi,
Is it possible to process many PO's for the same vendor with different payment terms (PO has got diff. pymnt terms) thru MIRO. Vendor has sent invoice clubbing diff. PO's.
Regards
Nilesh

Hi,
There are different payment terms in financial accounting, sales & Purchasing.When you then enter a business transaction, the application in question will use the key specified in its area of the master record.
For exmple, in vendor master we have 2 payment terms one is at Company code level and the other one is at purchase organisation level.
I hope in PO, the payemnt terms will be picked up from the purchasing view, and in invoice payment term will be picked up from the company code level.
Since Payment term is at header level in invoice, it is not possible to have different payment terms for single invoice.
Also in terms of finance its not possible to have different payment terms for single vendor.

Prabu

Comparing AWR data with baselines.

Hello,
I am studying AWR, which will be used in our project for performance analysis.
My requirement is to create a baseline of load between 2 snapshots during normal system load. We perform load/stress testing before final deployment. We are planning to take snapshots before and after load/stress tests. I want to compare the performance of instance during load/stress test with that of baseline performance.
Oracle provides package DBMS_WORKLOAD_REPOSITORY for different functions of AWR. It provides function CREATE_BASELINE function for creating baseline. But in report generation function AWR_REPORT_HTML or AWR_REPORT_TXT no parameter is specified for comparing it with the baseline.
Is it possible to compare AWR data with baseline, during report generation? Or currently Oracle supports only baseline creation and dropping that baseline. It can not be used for performance comparison.
Thanks,
