PO rel procedure carried over to Outline agreements
Hi Experts,
Release procedure created for Purchase order has become active for Contracts & Scheduling agreement also. Infact system doesn't allow to process (MIGO) scheduling agreements (agreement type: LP) without being released.
Is this valid? if yes how do I avoid this carry over.
Thanks,
Rajoo
Hi,
In the classification of the release strategy, create one caracteristik as Document category.
Maintain the value "F" for PO.
It will not pickup the outline agreement

Master Agreements fields carry over to child Agreement.
Hi,
How can I carry over the fields set in the master agreement module to a child agreement?
I believe I need to have a script definition on the creation of child agreement. but how can I get the reference to the master agreement fields? Any sample code?
Also if not for script definition is there any other way out?

Adding to what Sudipta has said, you can also use the workbook technique for accomplishing these type of changes. That way you can achieve all hover text changes in one shot across all MA tabs.
The 2 main tabs in the wokbook to be changed are: 'Localized Resource' and 'UI overrides' tab.
As an example, suppose you want to add the following text for Master Agreement External Category field:
"This field is a classification hierarchy to describe the products or services of the event and/or agreement."
So in the Localized resource tab, fill out the following:
BUNDLE: custom
RESOURCE_ID: xxx
RESOURCE_KIND: APP_TEXT
DEFAULT_VALUE: This field is a classification hierarchy to describe the products or services of the event and/or agreement.
Then refer the same attributes in the UI Overrides tab:
UI_ID: contracts.agreement.ui.buyside.default
FIELD: EXT_CAT
ATTRIBUTE: Description
VALUE: Same as Resource ID used in localized resource (xxx above)
Hope this helps,

Very imp outline agreements.
hi experts,
1)in which type of outline agreement does the price updates in info record .
2)i created a quantity contract and created a pur order with reference to contract, now i want to see how much quantity is still left in the contract target quantity.
please advice me
regardsHi,
Point wise answers as below:
1) For value contact and Scheduling agreements will update the info record but it depends upon the indicator you are setting in additional data of agreement.
2) Go to T.Code: ME33K and to item Over view and select line item> Item > Statistics > Release documentation (or Ctrl + Shift + F12)
Here you can see u201COpen Target Quantityu201D

Service entry against expired outline agreement
Hi Everyone,
Is it possible to raise a service entry sheet against an expired outline agreement?
Thanks in advance for your responses.If you can see the validity end date is over in purchase order.
Then you might have face the message SE242 - Runtime of entry must fall within runtime of purchase order (& - &).
But you can continue by configuring this message as warning.
In short, yes, you can create Service entry sheet with regards to this purchase order, which has created with regards to contract and the contract is expired.. -
Outline Agreement of FS Contarcts
Dear experts,
I'm struggling to try to understand how CRM Outline Agreements works.
Basically I can see that the standard solution privides two kinds of OA:
1. Promo Agreement: trans type DP, item categ DPI
2. Master Agreement: trans type MA, item categ MAF.
II succeeded in understand Promo Agreement, with which I can add third party subvention going to automatically add a Third Party Relationship on the FS contract, according to the access sequences defined in customizing.
Regarding Master Agreement, I already noticed that the determination on contract is customized differently in of respect DP, but is not such a problem.
I'm facing great difficulties in managing price agreements, payment structure and in reporting the results on the FS contract.
Do anyone has a "Best practice documentation" on how to manage and customize an Outline Agreement MA?
- Price agreements: It often gives errors (i.e.: when you try to maintain condition records pricing agreement the condition record is disappears from display during creation.).
I currently assigned a cond function group to the item category MAF to which is assigned a condition type with an access sequence containing the following accesses:
10 SAP00090
20 SAP00099
30 SAP00089
- Payment structure: I cannot insert flow categories in the payment structure of the OA item because the system gives the following error:
tem 1000: Payt struc.: You must enter a flow category before the first program run
Diagnosis
You have not entered a flow category for a step in the payment structure. You must enter a flow category before the first program run, otherwise you must change the flow category later. However, you are not then permitted to change the flow category group.
Procedure
Delete this row and insert a new row in the payment structure. Enter a flow category before the first program run.
When I create an FS Contract and the OA is determined in it, I cannot see any result such as, for example, the price agreement.
Do anyone knows how the outline agreement MA affects the FS contract?
Do anyone knows how to insert the payment structure on the outline agreement's item?
Thanks and regards
DarioHello,
Item category 'W' in a contract is not meant for automatic creation of a purchase order. It does not have a net price, where do you expect the system to pick this price from? Tax code only comes in later. Your error also talks about that.
The material group contracts can be used to keep track of orders so that they do not exceed a value limit.
In case, you do not know the material at the time of contract/ or have many similar type of materials use item category 'M' Material instead. In this you can specify price as well as tax code and use for auto POs.

Negative carry over sholud not be allowed in fast formula
Hi,
I have coded like this so that it will not allow negative carry over (note: no expiry for carry over )
but this will not work since line 8 will bring just carry over from the previous year.
To get absence i can use get_absence function.so if i get no of absence ,total carry over and total accrual pto i can calculte net entilement.
but to get Total accrual PTO in carry over formula , I am not able to use the procedure
PER_ACCRUAL_CALC_FUNCTIONS.Calculate_Accrual.If I use i get error as
ORA-20001: The formula XXCHR_CR_VACATON_ACCRUAL_FORMULA could not be executed because the context ASSIGNMENT_ACTION_ID was not set. All the relevant context values must be set before a formula can be executed.
Action: If this is custom code then please ensure that it sets all the appropriate context values. If this is not custom code then please contact your local support representative.
ORA-06512: at "APPS.PER_FORMULA_FUNCTIONS", line 608
ORA-06512: at "APPS.PER_ACCRUAL_CALC_FUNCTIONS", line 70
ORA-06512
so how do I not allow negative carry over.
1 Years_service = floor(months_between(Effective_date, Continuous_Service_Date) / 12)
2 IF (GET_ACCRUAL_BAND(years_service) = 0) THEN
3 L_Max_carryover = GET_NUMBER('MAX_CARRY_OVER')
4 ELSE
5 L_Max_carryover = 0
6 Max_Carryover = L_Max_carryover
7 l_exp_Effective_Date = ADD_YEARS(Effective_Date,-3)
8 L_tot_carryover = GET_CARRY_OVER(Effective_Date,to_date('0101'||to_char(Effective_Date,'YYYY'), 'DDMMYYYY'))
9 IF L_tot_carryover <0 THEN
10 (Max_Carryover = 0)
11 Process = 'YES'
12 RETURN Max_Carryover, Effective_date, Expiry_Date, Process
tnx in advancethere are seeded Accrual formulas given out of the box, which you can edit for your purpose

BAPI to Change a Purchase Contract
Functionality
BAPI for changing a purchase contract.
Notes
Master conditions
When creating outline agreements, you can specify only one period per variable key. This means that just one period can be specified for the document header (i.e. condition table A019). The same applies to each item (i.e. condition table A016) and to each item/plant combination (i.e. condition table A068).
You can use any periods. However they must not overlap for a variable key.
When conditions are changed, new condition records are nevertheless written.
Because volume rebate conditions are not taken into account in outline agreements, they are not processed.
No subitems (e.g. inclusive/exclusive bonus quantities, display, etc.) are taken into account.
The control key for quality management in procurement (EKPO-SSQSS) and the certificate category (EKPO-ZGTYP) are only taken into account to a certain extent. These two items of information are copied from the reference contract or material master, but cannot be changed; neither are any checks carried out for these two fields.
The revision level (EKPO-REVLV) cannot be changed because various quality management routines were not implemented.
Version management (Document Change Management) is not supported.
External services (planned or unplanned) are not supported.
The creation or changing of configurations is not supported.
Further information
When a purchase contract is changed (activity 02), the following authorization objects are checked:
M_RAHM_BSA Document type in contract
M_RAHM_EKG Purchasing group in contract
M_RAHM_EKO Purchasing organization in contract
M_RAHM_WRK Plant in contract

MM Outline Agreement Screen Flow
Our client has a requirement on contracts and scheduling agreements where they would like to see, displayed, the extended value of the line item and the total value of the outline agreement. I have located the fields needed and they seem to serve the client's requirement, but cannot determine how to get them to display on the outline agreement transactions (ME31,2,3....). The line item extended value field is found on EKPO_BRTWR; the document total is found on EKKO_RLWRT. Is there a way without doing a core mod that I can get these fields displayed on the documents on-screen?
Thanks!hI,
For any document SAP flow will be header detail and item details.the aggrement total value comes in the header like for contract of type WK Value contract will have the total contract value , and will be available in the header screen of the aggrement . and the item cost will be in the item over view screen of the contract, with its qty and value. if you want furthur details like other conditions for that item , select that item and go to the conditions tab in the menu bar , then those details also will come.
Check the table EKKO for the header details and EKPO for the item details.

Selection of Outline Agreement
Hi
Outline Agreements are to be used whenever possible.
What would help is if you can select a vendor, then a service agreement, today this is not easy as you have a know there is a contract and also which branch of the vendor the contract is made with.. If you chose the desired vendor, you won't find the contract. Emerson is all over the world, but where to find the contract?
If you pick the right contract, you will see an error because the selected vendor does not match to the contract.
Can you please help me out.
RahulI believe you are using multiple vendor code for the same vendor based on different vendor location and have multiple contracts created for each vendor code. In this case I would suggest to create only one contract using mail vendor (VN) and enter other vendors in same contract as parter - Order Address (OA), This would help when you create PO. You can choose desired ordering address vendor while creating PO.

Difference B/w Framework & Outline Agreement
Hi Gurus
I am new to SAP MM, can anyone please tell me the difference b/w framework orders and outline orders/ agreement.
General examples of this regard will be very helpful.
Regards
ImranDear,
A Frame work order is :
Purchasing document used for the procurement of materials or external services. Instead of stipulating a specific delivery date, this type of purchase order has an extended validity period. Goods or services can be supplied or performed against it over this period without the need for any further written instruction to be issued by the buying entity.
Framework orders are defined with document type FO. They are used in accelerated procurement processes in connection with preventive maintenance (servicing) plans or invoicing plans, and for blanket purchase orders (purchase orders with specified limits).
A framework order covers multiple procurement transactions over a longer period in cases where the administrative costs of processing discrete POs would be disproportionately high.
An Outline agreement is :
Outline agreement also referred as Contract in SAP.
Outline Agreement can be of 2 types:- Contract and SA.
Contract is where you have a contract with the vendor,may be a for a predetermined quantity or predefined value. So everytime you need the material, you need to make PO ref the contract asking for the delivery of the material. In such instance when PO is ref with contract its called contract release orders or call off orders.
Scheduling agreement is a long term purchase agreement, where you will keep issuing the delivery schedules whenever there is a change in requirement or at predetermined time intervals. The delivery schedule can be on hour/daily/weekly/monthly basis. But it will contain different zones viz. firm/tradeoff/Forecast. Firm zone schedules are confirmed requirement and need to be taken by ordered party. Tradeoff zone requirement is to purchase the raw materails and ordering party is liable to pay raw material cost, in case of requirement cancellation. Forecast zone requirement is to help the vendor to plan his requirements.
SA is also an agreement with the vendor for the supply of matl, may be a quanity or value. The delivery dates will be maintained in ME38 ref the SA which are called delivery schedules.So you can maintain the delivery schedule and communicate the vendor on Forecase basis or JIT basis. And when you need some more matl then will only create SA deliveries using ME38. SA could be of 2 types:- without release documentation-system will transmit the delivery info to the vendor once you save the document.
With release documentation- after creating the delivery schedules you need to create SA release using ME84.
The main difference between contract and SA is volume of docs generated would be higher in contract since everytime you need to make a PO ref the contract and its time consuming, whereas SA can be integrated with MRP such that it automatically creates delivery schedules during MRP run provided if there is a requirement to the matl.

this post, in cases where it's desirable to have two different workflows for two different Lists—is it possible to NOT bring forward a hardwired workflow when creating a new List from a saved template?
I.e. List #2 still has the workflow from List #1 hardwired in. List #1 still needs its workflow but List #2 wants to have a separate Workflow.More importantly, because it's relatively easy for most folks to just start from scratch with a new Workflow—how does one disassociate a carried-over Workflow from the new List?
Use the web-GUI. (List Settings > Workflow Settings)

How to reflect variable price in outline agreement
We procure many very complex tools that have options which significantly affect the price of that tool. We would like to be able to reflect those price differences in the outline agreement by option within the following boundary conditions.
1. Do not want to create a new material master for each option
2. Do not want to utilize BOM
3. We are buying the tool so sales order solutions won't work for us
I have looked at configurable materials where I set up characteristics to reflect the options but I have not been able to figure out a way to price those individual options. I do see how I could create multiple line items on the outline agreement for the same material and put unique combinations of the option characteristics in individual lines but that means I have to create a line item per option combination permutation which is much more painful than simply pricing individual options. I also haven't seen any way to get SAP to select the correct line item based on these characteristics when doing source selection on the PR or PO. I have started looking at variant pricing but that is completely new to me and I am not sure if that is going to go in the direction I want. My fear is that this just allows me to price a combination of characteristics vs. pricing individual characteristics then combining the prices at the time of purchase (no different that having to create an OA line item per option combination permutation). My apologies in advance for the convoluted message but it is difficult to ask about solutions when you are not sure what functionality potentially exists.
Thanks,
BenHi
