No CO-PA document on Third party Sales Order

We are doing Third Party Sales orders with Purchasing and Invoice REceipt, via the following process.
1 Sales order, 2) automatically creates the req via sales order, 3) delivery of sales order, 4) create the purchase order from the req. 5) post goods issue on the delivery, 6) Post goods receipt on purchase order, 7) bill and 8) invoice via miro.
the issue we have is that the variance(cOGS-PPV) account on the Miro does not go to CO-PA .
I believe that it is due to the Third Party sales order . re- oss 322497 and 772345.
Has anyone found a solution or have a similar problem.
I know that this is different from normal third party which does not deliver and receives PO and MIRO before the billing.

Hi Jeffrey,
If the corresponding purchase order belongs to a third-party deal,
please have a look at note 322497.
This would explain the behaviour that you are describing.
As explained in the note, during goods or invoice receipt for a
third-party transaction, as of Release 4.6, the system no longer
writes a line item in the costing-based profitability analysis.
Unlike the processing of a third-party deal in front of release 4.6 the
update of the goods receipt or the invoice receipt is not therefore
anymore required from the release 4.6 in the costing-based profitability
analysis.
You may find further information on the topic in SAPNET

Please go to FD32, check any default risk category and credit limit is maintained for the customer.
Also check OB45, any default risk category & credit limit is maintained for the credit control area.
Also, which order type u r creating sales order? for that order type, Goto VOV8, remove the credit grp and credit check settings.
Also goto XD02, check in sales area data, billing tab, credit control area field, please remove that also.
Hope it Helpful.

In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer

Hi SAP SD Gurus,
In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer is recived the Goods from the vendor?
Thanks & Regards,
Sreenivas.P

From a high level view, the behavior should work like this:
- Sales order placed from customer PO via Tcode VA01. Purchase Requisition created upon saving the order
- Purchase order created with reference to Purchase Requisition via Tcode ME21N
- Receive confirmation from vendor that goods have shipped via EDI
- Create invoice receipt to vendor via Tcode MIRO
- Create billing document to bill customer via VF01

Third party sales order report

Hi
I got to prepare a report and the description is as follows:
"Report for discount pricing conditions manually entered in third party sales orders."
"Discount price reporting for manual pricing conditions in sales order processing (not in billing)"
"The report should reflect manual pricing discounts captured in the third party sales order.The relevant (third party) document types will be confirmed.Currently we have the following pricing condition type used for manual discount: YRD2- Manual Distr. Discount % YRD3- Manual Distr. Discount fixedThis report will facilitate the monitoring on the discounts given to the distributors.We still need to confirm the complete list of discount pricing conditions for the report.The report should extract the manual discount information based on the following criteria:Sales organization, period, sales order, customer (wholesaler and/or third party) and pricing condition type.Summing per sales order, customer, period should be enabled.The discounts should be displayed in document (sales order) currency. "
I didnt understand the following to get the purpose of this report:
1. what is this third party sales order ?
2. What is manual pricing condition?
3. what is manual pricing condition? how many types of conditions are there like this?
4. What is the actual analysis that can be made from the output of this report?
Please explain them in detail. Thank you.

THIRD PARTY SCENARIO
In third-party order processing, your company does not deliver the items requested by a customer. Instead, you pass the order along to a third-party vendor who then ships the goods directly to the customer and bills you. A sales order may consist partly or wholly of third-party items. Occasionally, you may need to let a vendor deliver items you would normally deliver yourself.
Process Flow
The processing of third-party orders is controlled via material types. Material types define whether a material is produced only internally, can be ordered only from third-party vendors, or whether both are possible. For example, a material that is defined as a trading good can only be ordered from a third-party vendor. However, if you manufacture your own finished products, you may also want, from time to time, to be able to order the same type of product from other vendors.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Sales
Third-party items can be created automatically by the system, depending on how your system is set. However, you can also change a standard item to a third-party item during sales processing manually.
Automatic third-party order processing
If a material is always delivered from one or more third-party vendors, you can specify in the material master that the material is a third-party item. During subsequent sales order processing, the system automatically determines the appropriate item category for a third-party item: TAS. To specify a material as a third-party item, enter BANS in the Item category group field in the Sales 2 screen of the material master record.
Manual third-party order processing
In the case of a material that you normally deliver yourself but occasionally need to order from a third-party vendor, you can overwrite the item category during sales order processing. For a material that you normally deliver yourself, you specify the item category group NORM in the material master.
If, as an exception, you use a third-party material, change the entry TAN to TAS in the ItCa field when processing the sales document. The item is then processed as third-party item.
If address data for the ship-to party is changed in the sales order in third-party business transactions, the changed data will automatically be passed on to purchase requisition and also to the purchase order ,if one already exists. In the purchase order, you can display the address data for the ship-to party in the attributes for the item.
You can only change the address data for the ship-to party in the sales order for third-party business transactions, and not in the purchase order.
Processing Third-Party Orders in Purchasing
When you save a sales order that contains one or more third-party items, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition in Purchasing. Each third-party item in a sales order automatically generates a corresponding purchase requisition item. During creation of the requisition, the system automatically determines a vendor for each requisition item. If a sales order item has more than one schedule line, the system creates a purchase requisition item for each schedule line.
Purchase orders are created from purchase requisitions in the usual way. For more information about creating purchase orders, see the Purchasing documentation. During creation of the purchase order, the system automatically copies the delivery address of your customer from the corresponding sales order. In a sales order, you can enter purchase order texts for each third-party item. When you create the corresponding purchase order, the texts are automatically copied into the purchase order. The number of the purchase order appears in the document flow information of the sales order.
All changes made in the purchase order are automatically made in the sales order as well. For example, if the vendor confirms quantities and delivery dates different from those you request and enters them in the purchase order, the revised data is automatically copied into the sales order
You process third-party items by creating a normal sales order. In overview for the order, you can then overwrite the default item category (TAN in the standard system) with the special item category for third-party items: TAS
Billing Third-Party Orders
If relevance for billing indicator for the item category has been set to B (relevant for order-related billing on the basis of the order quantity) in Customizing, the system includes the order in the billing due list immediately. If, however, the indicator has been set to F (relevant to order-related billing on the basis of the invoice quantity), the system does not include the order in the billing due list until an invoice from the vendor has been received and processed by the purchasing department. In the standard system, item category TAS (third-party order processing) has been given billing-relevance indicator F.
In the first case, the third-party order is considered to be completely billed only when the invoiced quantity equals the order quantity of the sales order item. In the second case, each time a vendor invoice is received, a customer invoice is created for the quantity in the vendor invoice and the order is considered to be fully invoiced until the next vendor invoice is received.
If you have activated billing-relevance indicator F for item categories in Customizing, billing can refer to the goods receipt quantity instead of the incoming invoice quantity.
You can control whether the invoice receipt quantity or the quantity of goods received is relevant for billing in Customizing for copying control for billing at item level.
FOR YOUR PROCESS Individual Purchase Orders WELL GIVE THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Individual purchase orders are used when your customer orders goods from you that are not in stock and must be ordered from one or more external vendors.
Process Flow
During sales order entry, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition item. The purchasing department creates a purchase order based on the requisition and the vendor ships the goods directly to you (unlike third party order processing, where the vendor ships directly to your customer). You then ship the goods to your customer. While the goods are part of your inventory, you manage them as part of the sales order stock. Sales order stock consists of stock that is assigned to specific sales orders and cannot be used for other purposes.
Goods receipt will be posted when ever the vendor ships the goods to our customer.
We will do this transaction in SAP using MIGO.
Invoice receipt is done when the Vendor sends us the invoice.. ( I.e Billing ).
It can be done using MIRO.
THe above two steps are standard and manual. There are many other ways that the actual process can happen. If the client follows EDI standards then the Goods receipt and Invoice receipt can be done through IDOCs automatically.

Third party sales order bringing goods into inventory

Hi gurus,
I have a scenario where a third party sales order will be created for which a purchase requisition is created in sales order itself. Now i have converted the PR into PO. While doing goods receipt it should come into storage location. then we should goods issues from the delivery documents. In this regard i would like to know the required coming for itself.

Hi,
What you want makes no sense.
In third party process the goods won't arrive in your warehouse (SLoc) physically, because your vendor sends them directly to your vendor. Since the goods won't arrive at your site, there's also no point in speaking about creating delivery and posting goods issue.
Please check SAP help how the process works:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/dd/560287545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
If you want the goods to arrive at your location - even tough they don't arrive physically -, you can use the individual PO scenario. This would be a workaround - but I think you shoul revise your requirement and way of thinking.

Third Party Sales Order in COPA - adjusted cost

We have a third party sales order which creates the Preq and then the pruchase order. We have statistical conditions on the purchase order. We have switched the billing relavency on the item category TAS to a B to allow billing before the invoice recipt from the oversees vendor. Billing block is on the order until inbound delivery is updated.
A purchase order is created with statistical conditions for an accrual amount (palletization charge). When the goods receipt is performed against an inbound delivery and the billing block is removed, a customer invoice is created and the correct value, cost plus the accrual amount, posts into the customer billing document vprs condition and posts accordingly to co-pa.
The issue is that when the invoice receipt is performed against the purchase order, the normal FI document is created against the vendor and gr/ir account. However, at this time an adjustment to the vprs is posted against the original billing document vprs condition for the statistical condition on the purchase order. This adjustment to the vprs condition then creates a copa document which reduces the cost of goods sold value field.
Any ideas on how to prevent this adjustment to the co-pa cogs value?

Hi,
Process
VA01 - Create sales order (Schedule line CS and item category TAS) >> ME52N - PR is generated after save of sales order >> ME21N - Convert PR in to P.O >> Then vendor will send goods to customer and will send invoice to our company >> MIRO - Invoice receipt from vendor >> VF01 - Final invoice to customer
When you enter vendor invoice then you come to know that vendor sent qty. same will be billed to customer(Billing relevance in item category should be F)

Third party Sales Orders in V.15 Back Order Report

Hi,
Is there any standard setting to incorporate undeliverd third party sales orders in the standard V.15 backorder report.
I need to get the list of third party SOs which are backordered??? similar to drop ship and stock orders (TAB & TAN).

As per my knowledge, in standard Third party Sales Orders process,
-On availability check.
-there is no GI.
-no movement type.
-TAS - I Cat - is not relevant for delivery.
The Standard process is
Create Third Party Sales Order (VA01/VA03 - retrieve PR num)* - Create Purchase Order (Display list of PR with ME57 and convert to PO with ME58) - Approval/Release of PO (if required - ME28) - Invoice Verification (MIRO)**
- Billing (VF01/vf04)
The PR number is automatically created in this step.
The incoming invoice from the vendor updates the billing quantity, so that the customer-billing document can only be created after entering the invoice from the vendor.
So, in standard TP sales process, Back order processing is not possisble. If you any other business process scenario, do share with us.
Thanks & Regards

Purchase Requestion for Third Party Sales Order

Hello Team
I want the system to create Purchase Requisition automatically and some times Manually (Possible if both Option are available) for the Sales Order which belongs to Third Party.
How to achieve this?
Thanks
Nick

Hi Nick
Following are the steps of third party:
1) Creation of third party sales order
2) Generation of automatic purchase reqisition through the configuration of schedule line CS in SD.(schedule line is determined by the item categoty and the mrp type.
please dont maintain mrp type in the material master.so that it will determin CS directly.
in the tcode VOV6,please check whether the document type NB is maintained for CS.
This will created auto PR).
3) You can check the PR Number in the schedule line tab of sales order.PR requirement will not be available in the MD04.
4) Manually create a PO for vendor with item category S.
5) There will be no GR in this case.
6) Create an invoice verification document.
7) Create an invoice from the SD side w.r.t Sales order.
Hope this might have answered ur question

In Automatic PR generation during 3rd party sales order,the account category determination depends on following configuration:
Step 1:
Sales & Distribution-->Sales->Sales Documents->Sales Document Item->Define Item Categories--
Check this configuration
Step 2:
Sales & Distribution-->Sales->Sales Documents->Sales Document Item->Define Schedule line CategoriesUnder this configuration ,for your scheduline item category ,check following entries ,Order type-NB ,Item Category---5 & Acct.Assingment category (3rd Party).
Step3:
Sales & Distribution-->Sales->Sales Documents->Sales Document Item--->Assign Schedule line Categories
Then Assign the schedule line category to 3rd Party Item category defined .
From this when PR get generated then acct.assingment category get populated automatically .

Capture cost of procured materials in a third party sales order scenario

Dear Experts,
I'm developing a third party sales order solution to my company following the recommended third party scenario by SAP.
Everything is working fine from creation of sales order, automatic creation of purchase requisition, create purchase order using the purchase requisition ect...
The problem I have is the in the Sales order, the cost of the material is not getting captured correctly. The condition maintained in the sales order is VPRS and it is deriving the material cost from the material master record. Ideally it should be deriving the material cost from the invoiced value or else from the purchase order(which is the actual amount we are spending to buy the items). Deriving the cost from material master depicts an incorrect profit in the sales order.
Can someone please advice me how to derive the cost(to be shown in the sales order under VPRS condition)from the invoice or the purchase requisition and Not from the material master.
I'll be grateful if you can describe in a step by step proceedure.
Thanks in advance

Hi Lakshmipathi
Thanks alot for your response.
As u mentioned, at the point of sales order creation the price does gets picked up from the Material Master.
But during Billing, it does NOT get updated to reflect the purchase order price. If that happens, then its perfect.
I did a complete testing cycle and the material master price remains unchanged throught the process upto billing.
Is there any special parameter that I should maintain in VPRS condition for this to happen?
Anyway thanks again for ur reply, appreciate it alot. Let me know your views on this.
As u advise I'll post it on the sales forum as well.
Regards,
Randika

Generate PO from third party sale order

Hi expert,
When we save a Third Party sale order, it will generate a purchase requisition to buy items for us. I wonder if there are any methods to generate Purchase Order directly (Not via PR) from sales order ?
Thanks so much.
Edited by: Truong Tran on Feb 26, 2009 12:30 PM

Hi,
As you know - only PR will be automatically getting genreated in case of third party sale order or individual purchase order.
This is because of the schedule line category - CB and CS.
When the item category is TAB/TAS - it will determine the schdule line categor CB/CS which leads to generate PR automatically.
There is an item category 'ALES' (Create PO Automatic - check box in VOV7 - will be checked) - which will create both PR and PO.
I have not used that item category yet.. I think - though we use ALES item category - it won't create automatic PO.
Except ALES item category.. - I do not have idea on ALES item category..
(i.e., PO will never be automatically created without using the transaction.)
Thanks,
Venkatesh.S.P

UNBW Material in a third-party Sales Order (error: account determination)

Hy @ll,
we receive the following error message when entering a non valuated material (MTART UNBW) in a third-party sales order item.
System is asking for the calculated budget and after the manual entry of the budget the following error message appears.
(the schedule line customizing populates the account assignment category X for the PR)
"Not possible to determine a consumption account".
any ideas? my assumption is that account determination OBYC can not be error source, because it´s a non-valuated material...
many thanks,.
