License Determination - Country Group

Hi All,
I have a business requirement to restrict the export of specific materials to specific country groups. If I'm attempting to export a material to one of those restricted countries, it will block because a license master will need to be created. This is pretty straight-forward.
For the countries that aren't maintained in the country group, I'm receiving the "Blocked (Determination)" popup. I need to understand how to route the countries that aren't in the country group to a "No License Required" License Type.
For example:
Material 1234567 cannot ship to US, CA or MX (we'll call this country group NORTH_AM) but it can go to any other country in the world.
I would maintain a 'country group/control class' determination strategy entry for the legal reg + country group + ECCN + license type.
Do any of you have experience with this?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
You can create a new Legal regulation- LR1. As you need this scenario to be applicable only for exporting country BE.
Please make sure your determination procedure has a strategy Country/Country group level.
Now under Define legal regulations- Make sure you add your country group ZGRP1.
Under SAP GTS->General Settings->Legal Regulations->Activate legal regulations at Country/Country Group level. Activate your legal regulation in the following way.
Under BE-> Create ZGRP1 row
Under Compliance Mgt- Legal Control-Activate Legal regulations. Please keep it as shown below
Not activated at higher level
Activate it in sub-level.
The other settings such as assigning Numbering schemes for ECCN and License should be done for this Legal regulation.
You need to classify your product for this legal regulation.
You can define one license type which will be used for exporting this product to RU, CN and TN.
Maintain determination strategy only for this combination LR1+ZGRP1+ECCN+License type
So, this way when there is a Sales order exporting your product from BE to RU/CN/TN- Legal regulation LR1 gets activated and system will start looking for a License to ship products to RU/CN/TN. If not, the document is going to be blocked.
If the SO is exporting your product from BE to any other countries- legal regulation LR1 will not be determined at all. So no block.
This can be just another way to achieve your requirement to block Shipping only to RU/CN/TN and not to any other country. You might feel the earlier way of just creating a new license type NLR will be easy. I am not sure if you are achieving this with a legal regulation that you have already. But if you are anyways creating a new legal regulation already, you may give this new option a try in your sandbox.
Hope this helps. If you feel, I had misunderstood your request please feel free to comment

Country of License Determination

Hi,
I have quick question on the "Country of Departure/Destination" for license determination
What I understand is
Country Combination with ECCN for License Determination - Standard functionality GTS application.
1.ECCN + Country of Destination -> Exports - Sales Orders
I Understand that country of destination maintained in License will be compared with country of Ship-to Party(customer), Is this correct?
2. ECCN + Country Of Departure -> Imports - Purchase Orders
I Understand that country of Departure maintained in License will be compared with country of Ship-from Party(Vendor), Is this correct?
Thanks,

hi,
generally you are right but also consider the following info:
Partner Group for Determining Country of Destination: The country of
departure/destination of the export is used on the basis of the partner
function contained in the document and in this partner grouping. The
first partner function which is contained in both the document and the
partner grouping is used. No further partner functions are checked.
Example:
The partner grouping contains the partner functions end customer and
ship-to party. Assuming the document to be checked does not have an end
customer, the country of the ship-to party is taken to be the country
of destination for accessing the license type determination procedure.
If you have an import process, make sure that you have a vendor and it is assigned to the supplying plant for license determination.

Problem with License determination

Hi,
I have just setup license determination strategy as per the config guide. But, in the cockpit -> Legal COntrol Exports -> Maintain License determination strategy, Isee only 2 tabs(small views) 1.Legal regulation and 2. License Types
Where are other tabs(views) like ECCN and Countries, what is the config which will enable to bring windows on to maintain license determination strategy.
And also I am even unable to see even Combo/ListBox below these views, with options like
1. Country/Control Clss
2. Country group / Control Classs...etc.
Where in config I have to set to see all this
Thanks,

Hello Denise:
For NLR license determination, I have created category "E" and maintained EAR99 as ECCN for the group.
And then assigned ECCN "EAR99" to the license type NLR and also products to that license
This is the way for NLR license determination.
Hope this helps.
let me know you approach in detail if different from the one I said
Thanks

Multi partner License Determination Capability in GTS

Hi,
For export license determination, we have business avaibale based on the combination of ECCN and Country of Destination
Destination country being either ship-to partner country or ultimate destination country in order of preference specified in partner function sequence.
But, I am looking for a functionality that license determination check should carried out for both partner functions.
1. ECCN and Ultimate partner country AND
2. ECCN and Ship-to Party partner Country for a single sales order.
Does anybody come across such situation/requirement in business which is a real time scenario.
Can anybody guide me on this front as how to achieve this eithwe by some enhancement etc, of config setting in GTS system
Any guidance on this is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Venkat:
Thanks for response.
I have also seen in the SAP documentation, but it says that if the license is found for the first partner function in the group then it will not check the later one.
But, in my case the sales document has 2 partner functions in the group and as well as document, but it executes for only one, then my requirement is not fulfilled.
Actually, I will generate rules for both partner countries and both should be determined (Ultimate consignee ctry and Ship-to ctry) if the license determination rules is not found even for one then it should block.
It has to check for both license rules.this is my requirement.
Thanks in advance,

License Determination for Sales Return process

Hello SAP GTS Experts,
We have a situation, where we need to create Return sales from Customer &
in the same Return order, we will send the repalcement product to Customer.
In this case, good movement type 653 (return sales) & 601 (Delivery to customer)
will be used.
Can any one help to map this process under Compliance for License determination.
Logically, for Return item, Import License should be picked & for replacement item
Export License under Legal Control.
Need your suggestons to map this process for License determination.
Similarly, we need to think about Subcontracting process in MM, & relevant license
determinaton.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Mayank

Thanks for your Reply Dave.
Requirement is for Country Sweden. Currently Whenever return sales order is created in ECC, system looks for Export License in GTS. As per Goods movements (653) Logic, Import License should be determined here.
Let me explain you the process in Details-- For Repair/Services Process, these return sales orders are created. Here again there are 2 possible scenarioes:-
1. We can return the faulty Item (Movement Type 653) & provide Repalcement product (MT 601) to customer .
2. Return Sales order will be created (MT 653) & Faulty Item will be sent back to Vendor for repair (Using Return PO process, Movement Type 161).
Business wants us to provide Solution for Determining Valid Licenses (export/import) depending upon the situation.
Here We have Bigger challange when the Return Sales order has Both type of Items (Mention in Scenario#1).
Are you sure , there is NO Need of Licenses for replacement/rejection Process??
Please Let me know Your Inputs.

Mayank

Upload License Determination Strategy

Hello,
Does anyone has experience with the upload of license determination strategy? How does this work? Where can I find the appropriate XML structure which is used by the upload program?
Thanks
Regrds
Frank

You may want to first consider how many license determination strategy records you really need. At one client, they had over 40,000 determination records loaded. I reduced this to 8, with no impact on their license determination results, but with a great impact on the ease of use and ongoing maintenance. The simple solution is the best here and can support every country's regulations.
If you do still want to explore uploading strategy records via XML, the only company I know working on this is our partner MK Data Services.

License Determination

Hi,
I have just started working in SAP GTS
Can you please tell me that how License Determination is done for a material?
I am getting this error while creating Delivery in ECC that license determination is not done in GTS.
Thanks
Neha

Hi,
Licence Determination is one of the Compliance Check provided by GTS System.
For example in your export process.
Whenever you create a sales order(export document) in feeder system ECC, the GTS (host system) first checks whether the product you are selling requires a licence and if so you need to maintain licences in the system for such product categories which you get from the custom authorities. This goods which are subjected to license legal regulation are Civil & Military (dual use goods).
For this, you need to define legal regulations and classify products and configure/setupo for license determination process.
better..you study GTS help on SAP site..A bit long way to go, you can't just figure out like this.

To get the company code and country grouping attached to a position

Hi everyone,
I have a position and I need to get the company code and the country grouping that this position is attached to. Could you kindly suggest an FM or a class which would fetch the above data keeping in mind the inheritance tree. That is, if the company code is not maintained in HRP1008, then it should look for the same in the Org Unit that this position belongs to and so on..
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Alpana.

Hi
Check the A011 relationship of the position and get the cost center, from cost center you can get the company code and country grouping from Cost Center Master CSKS.

License Determination in GTS

Hi,
I am trying to configure License determination in GTS system. While I am using SAP configuration guide and Online Help links,I get to know that I need to start with configuring the numbering Schemes.
I am stuck at finding the transaction for "Assign Numbering Scheme of Exp List for License Maintenance", which is the second step in configuration.
Can anyone please provide me link to or any information on how should I proceed.
Regards,
Madhav

Hi Madhav,
The path changed over the versions. Try this IMGpath:
Global Trade Services
General Settings
Numbering Schemes
Assign Numbering Schemes to Legal Regulations of the Application Areas
There you can assign the Numbering Schemes for the different purposes.
Hope that helps.

ESS/MSS for International Country grouping

Hi all,
Scenario: We are implementing Portal ESS/MSS on ECC6 and have loaded the Best Practices with the below components.
SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.0 SP12 with the following additional software components
     BP ERP05 Common Parts 1.0 SP08 (BP_ERP5COM)
     BP ERP05 ESS 1.0 SP08 (BP_ERP5ESS))
     BP ERP05 MSS 1.0 SP08 (BP_ERP5MSS)
     SAP ESS 600 SP08 (SAP_ESS)
     SAP MSS 600 SP08 (SAP_MSS)
     SAP PCUI_GP 600 SP08 (SAPPCUI_GP)
Now, the ESS and MSS is to be implemented for a Country Grouping 99 - International and not any specific country.
Problem: The iViews are not loading for International, when the R/3 config setting is for 99. While it seems to be calling the right iViews for 10 - USA or 12 - Belgium.
Can you please assist on how to link up the Users to the roles and correct iViews.
Thank you.
Sandeep

Hi Anil,
Steps in brief:
0. Once you have implemented the Busin. Packages from SAP you will get all the Portal Content which is country specific. This is the same content being called from R/3 using country specific resources.
1. Go to R/3 -> Pers Admin -> ESS -> General Settings -> Home Page for SS -> Services -> Define Country Srvcs.
Go into Define Country specific srvcs and you will see the view V_T7XSSSERSRVCG
2. This table contains all the country specific implementations offerred by SAP. You can use some of these and copy/create for CGrpng 99 as below. This should be based on what services you want to use on ESS.
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_ADDRESS         99    EMPLOYEE_ADDRESS_BE_SERVICE
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_ADDRESS05       99    EMPLOYEE_ADDRESS_BE_SERVICE05
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_BANK            99    EMPLOYEE_BANK_BE_SERVICE
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_BANK05          99    EMPLOYEE_BANK_BE_SERVICE05
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_FAMMEMBER       99    EMPLOYEE_FAMMEMBER_BE_SERVICE
EMPLOYEE_PERSINFO_FAMMEMBER05     99    EMPLOYEE_FAMMEMBER_BE_SERVICE05
3. Also make sure your CGrpng in Pers Area/ PSA is set to 99, basically Employee shold belong to 99.
Hope this helps in figuring out a few more things !!
Good luck
