Resuls Analysis for Service Contracts - Revenue in Excess of Billing.

Dear Experts,
We are running RA for Service Contracts.
COntract period is 01/11/2010 to 30/10/2011.   Montlhy Value is 1000, Yearly value 12000
1) The Billing Plan is Quarterly Billing (deferred).If we Run RA in KKA3. Planned revenue showing is 12000 / 4 quarters = 3000 .
                             If we Run RA in KKA3 , the planned revenue shown is 3000 instead of 12000.
2)                          We have incurred some cost for the month of November 2010.   If we RUN RA on KKA3 for the month of november 2010 , we should get 1000 as Actual Revenue and 2000 Should be shown in Revenue in Excess of Billing(REB). But it is not showing as Revenue in Excess of Billing.
Please help.

BOM IN CRM Only for Service Contract

Hello
We want have a BOM explosion working in CRM for service contracts
Here are the details :
We have replicated the materials from ECC to CRM. We are not maintaining any BOMu2019s in ECC.
The idea is that we maintain the BOM Structure in CRM only, as we donu2019t want to have the Items as a billable item in a position, only for information purposes (or later on for metering)
We have maintained the product category for the header product in CRM so we are able to maintain depended components
(Relationship type SCDEC S Dependent Components (DC) )
Not we are able to assign dependent component to the header material
Item category groups:
We understand that the standard item category groups that should be used are ERLA for the header product and LUMF for the Item product.
In order to support the same functionality for the given item category group , maintained at the product level in ECC we copied the same setting for the item category group from the standard to
our settings.
Standart
Tx type     Item Cat Group          item category     structure scope
TA             ERLA                TAQ           A single level Explosion of Structured Product
TA         LUMF                TAP                   A single level Explosion of Structured Product
So we have copied TAQ to ZTAQ and TAP to ZTAP.
ZS01 is a copy of SC (service contract)
Tx type     Item Cat Group          item category     structure scope
ZS01     ZLEI                       ZTAQ          A single level Explosion of Structured Product
ZS01     LEIS                       ZTAP          A single level Explosion of Structured Product
But when we use a header product in the service contract, we cannot see the BOM is exploding.
We have also created some products in CRM with exactly the same Item Category groups as the standard and when we create a standard order (TA) in CRM, the BOM is NOT exploding.
Questions:
Is it possible to have the BOM setup only in CRM, like we try to do it?
Is it possible to use our own item category groups in CRM more is the functionality only working with ERLA and LUMF?
Is it possible to use the BOM Explosion in Service contracts as well ?
What steps are we missing to get the BOM explosion in CRM ?
Thank you for your help

Thanks Nablan, I could do that for multiple header coming in file. But I have a question for you on BAdI ALM_ME_006_GOODSMVT. I have implemented this BAdI , and this BAdI is called by a function Module ALM_MEREP_006_CREATE. When I test this FM giving the Material , Orderid and Movement type entries, this BAdI is triggered when giving a breakpoint. I've given this code for changing the movement type to 961. Cause the stanadrd scenario does not maintain Movement type 961 in Mobile Asset Management. The Movement type 961 for unplanned Materials comes to SAP and changes to 261 as maiantained by TCOKO table. To bypass this & retain the movement type 961 in SAP I'm using this BAdI.

Changing Billing Schedule Level for Service Contracts created in OM

Hi,
When we create a Service Contract from Order Management, the Billing Schedule Level is always set to Top Level and only one Billing Stream gets created.
Can we get the Billing Schedule Level changed to other Levels viz., Equal Amount or Covered Level using any setups.
Has anyone did any customization/extension to be able to change the Billing Schedule Level.
The basic requirement is to have multiple billing streams for the contract, created from Order Management.
Gurus, any ideas/suggestions to get this accomodated.

Sid,
I don't think you are on the right track (in my opinion). You are right that we can only create service contract from the order management (service or Extended Warranty Lines).
If I understood correctly, you sell electronic subscriptions (like my internet service I have at home) and you are looking for way to take it from the order management so that you can bill it from Contracts and not from OM. As this is electronic service, looks like you do not have fulfill any tangible product (like magazines) from contracts. Hence you do not care about the schedule for the contract shipments. Is that correct?
As this is not something Oracle offers (I did not find anyway), you may want to consider extending OM workflow or a batch program to create a subscription contract once the order line is fulfilled (not the program where we create service contract). This way you have flexibility to create the contract the way you want it.
But you can always create a service contract covering a subscription item as covered product. Like I have internet service as subscription but they cover me for any incidental visits of technicians for this subscription charging me some amount every month.
Thanks

Automatic invoice generation for service contract

Hello,
I want to create the automatic invoicce generation for service contract based on the order.
whenever i raise service contract order system should create the invoice automatically.
could please let me know the settings?

Hi JP Reddy
You can schedule VF04/VF06 for your requirement, such that VF06 will run every 15/30 minutes and will generate billing document for your contracts automatically.
Else go for Z extension development which will assign as output type to your contract and once triggered it will create invoice.
try and revert

How to get price list line id for service contract line(subline)

Does some one know how to find a price list line id for service contracts line (sub line)?
There is actually a column in table okc_k_lines_b which is called price_list_line_id, but it looks like it is never used (all columns values are NULL). I have tried to investigate reprice API's which are used in contracts authoring form, but they are too huge and it didn't lead to nay result. There is a way (bad hack), by calling OKS_QP_INT_PVT.COMPUTE_PRICE it is possible to get price list line id by which contract line is priced, it would be kina fine if I would need to find line id for some rows, but it wont work for thousands!
Is there some proper way how could I get price list line id by which is service contract line priced?

Hiya...
Billing Plan for Milestone Billing
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine    100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description    % Value Billing Block   Milestone   Billing Status
01-10-94     Contract      10 10,000      -             x           x
01-03-95     Assembly      30 30,000      x             x
01-04-95     Maintenance   30 30,000      x             x
01-05-95     Acceptance    30 30,000      x             x
01-06-95     Final invoice ..    ..        x
Network/Activities
Milestone    Estimate      Actual
Assembly     01-03-95      01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance   01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
    planned billing date for the date
Keep Sapping

Forecasted revenues for Service contract

Hi
We have few service contracts which are in being processed status.
In the service contract if i go to cost report ( enivornment -->cost report) the settlement revenues to COPA is zero.
Why is this amount coming as zero. Should it not be equal to the value of service contract as this is forcaseted/plan revenue.
Thanks and Regards,
Satya

Some additional info:
The billing plan is maintained.
There are 2 partial invoices. with one invoice in the past data. The second partial invoice has a billing block.

POC based Results Analysis for Service Order/ Contract

Issue resolved. Please close the message.
Hi Friends,
We have a process where we create a service order and plan costs on the order.
Later a contract will be created with billing plan. The contract is assigned to service order manually.
After actual costs are booked to the service order the same is settled to Contract.
When I run RA for Contract I dont see the Activity rate planned costs so the POC is not giving correct results.
The planned material costs are being updated though.
I have mapped the activity cost element to a line id and COS in RA configuration.
Please let me know if I am missing anything here.
Thanks in Advance,

Service Contract Revenue as Marketing Metric

Has anyone built a metric based on the revenue from Service Contracts as opposed to Sales Orders?
If you would share your approach, I'd be grateful.
Thanks much!

Hi, Paul!
In CR700 materials there is the next explanation: "Service-based revenue recognition (value/quantity contracts with a target quantity) means that the revenue is realized based on an event. Events are releases that are reflected as service orders or service confirmations. Once again, the billing document is posted to an accruals account first and the revenues are transferred to the revenue accounts in a second step."
Hope it helps

Error in BAPI RETURN for Service Contract

Hi,
I get an error in the BAPI Return for the Uploading the Service Contracts by LSMW. The Error Message is E BS No status object is available for &.Also want to know can we upload multiple line of header text for a Contract by this BAPI. If so then how would I do this , as the BAPI structure BAPISDTEXT has textline upto 132 characters. And I am take only one file in LSMW where the header & details come alongwith text. Or could also tell me the file structure of for the data upload. The legacy system sends multiple text in the header for a Contract.For Eg.
Header1 Detail1 Text1
HEader1 Detail2 Text2
Header1 Detail3 Text3
So I would need this text1TEXT2text3 in the Header Text of the Contracts. Or do I need the change the file structure. Many thanks for your time and help.

Proforma invoice for Service Contracts

Hello,
I know the invoice types F5 for order related proforma and F8 for delivery related invoice. Now I'm looking for possibilities to create a proforma invoice based on a Service contract (Order Type WV) as a periodical invoiced sales order.
I tried to use proforma invoice (type F5) with Service contract but the billing plan will be set on status C (completely processed) so that the same period can not be invoiced again with the real commercial invoice. The billing status in the sales order has been changed as well with the proforma, which should not be the case as the proforma should just generate a printout.
Does SAP offer anything or how can I setup customizing to be able to create proforma for periodical sales orders?
Kind regards
Rafael

Hello,
Thank's for the information.
Finally I tried to copy our existing invoice type and set it up like F5 but the problem is still that the billing plan periods are set to status C - completely processed. The accounting side is OK as no accounting document is being created.
But with this billing plan situation it would not be possible to create first the proforma invoice for one Period and then later create the real commercial invoice for the same period.
Any ideas what I can setup to avoid this problem? I thought of chancelling the proforma after creation so that the billing period will be opened again, but this is no user friendly or professional solution.
Thank's in advance for your ideas.
Kind regards
Rafael
