Service Entry Sheet creation!!!!

Hi all,
I am working on service procurement with ECS scenario.The Service Entry Sheet in the backend R/3 system is subject to release strategy(for a material group).
Whenever I create a Service Entry Sheet(SES) based on a EBP PO, then the SES is subjected to a release strategy.
Whenever I create a confirmation in the EBP system(which doesn't have a workflow for confirmation), the follow-on document i.e. Service Entry Sheet is getting created in the backend with absolutely no release strategy whatsoever.
Why is the SES getting created automatically,even though there is a release strategy attached to it at the backend?? This release strategy is functioning fine when I create a SES manually in the backend.
I found a thread { Service Entry sheet auto released when created through EBP } wherein someone had faced the same issue that I faced, but no one gave him a clear picture as well.
Help me!!
Regards
Hari

Hi,
This is standard SRM design.
The Service Entry Sheet created from SRM in ECC is directly released to create a material document (good receipt).
This is because, there is no release functionnality available from SRM.
Thus, if there were a release strategy, there is no way in standard to pilot it from SRM.
If you need a release straegy, you need to use the confirmation WF in SRM that will occur before the Service Entry sheet is created in ECC.
Kind regards,
Yann

  • Error ' Quantity exceeds quantity in PO' in service entry sheet creation.

    Hi,
    I am getting error "Quantity entered 7,000 exceeds quantity 5,000 in purchase order' ,  Message no. SE363" while creating service entry sheet
    PO Quantity - 1 AU
    Service  quantity - 5 HR
    in service entry sheet creation i am giving 6HR instead of what is planned in PO
    Not sure what driving this error, please help
    Thanks

    Hi
    Could you please check if Message SE 363 is set as an E (Error) in the IMG transaction OME0?. If it is set to an error you will not be  able to accept service overdeliveries even if you have the unlimited indicator set.

  • Supress Mandatory field for Service Entry Sheet Creation

    Hi,
    I am using BDC for Service Entry Sheet creation as BAPI cannot fulfill the Business needs.
    During Recording when I click on Service Overview and click on Service Selection we provide the Model Service Specification Number there I can see the Services and select it, but when I select the service and adopt, an error message ocuured to enter the quantity.
    Is there any way to supress the standard error message without using acess Key.

    Hi Aviram,
    Messages type 'E' , 'I' or 'W' are controlled through configurations. Please check with your functional consultant with the message number you want to supress. It can be made as 'I' or 'W' through configuration.
    Similarly if you do not want that particular field as mandatory field ask functional consultant to make it optional.

  • Service entry sheet creation thru bapi for multiple line items

    HI All,
    WE are using BAPI_ENTRYSHEET_CREATE bapi for the creation of service entry sheet against service PO.
    We are able to create the service entry sheet successfully with single sevice line item using this bapi,but when we are going for multiple service line items in item services tab in aPO, we are able to create the service entry sheet with only one service line item although there are 4 service line items in the item service tab in the po.
    We know that this bapi cannot support more than one po line item as it has provision for only one line item at the header leavel in the bapi
    will be rewarded for the best solution.

  • Service Entry sheet creation - Using a diffent contract diff from line item

    Hi,
    Here is the scenario...
    I have a services purchase order referring to contract  and its service item with services ( service masters) attached to it.
    And the PO  item is a limit item with some limits maintained on the limits tab, but contract reference is specified at the limits level it is only at the line item level.
    System version : ECC 6.0
    Lets say PO number : 123456789
    Lets say contract number and item is : 2323232323  item 10 ( Account assignment U )
    My supplier is : 111111111
    Now I am creating the Service Entry sheet  and I am trying to add the services  ( services selection button)  I get a pop up to  search for services  by certain selection criteria  and one of them is purch document ( remember it doesn't pre-populate and grey out the purch doc field with that the contract number from the item level) and now I can select any service contract that belongs to any supplier and select the services from it and complete my  SES.
    So lets say the contract from which I chose the service is : 3232323232
    And the supplier on the contract is 2222222222
    Is this a valid scenario or not?
    Has any body ran into this situation  before?
    Hope I was clear in explaining my scenario....  
    Thx,
    Krishna.

    Hi Krishna,
    the External Services Management distinguishes between planned and unplanned services.
    In case you have ONLY limits, no planned services in the PO item, it does not matter if you have entered a contract number into the PO item - in this case this contract will be not a real reference for your services.
    If you have entered limit values only as overalllimit and expected value and you did not enter a contract limit on the contract limit tab, then you will not have a special contract reference on unplanned level neither.
    In this case it is NOT an error when you start the entry sheet creation and you can select services from other contracts or purchase orders against your limit values in the PO into the entry sheet.  The system does NOT check for a different vendor when you select services from other documents than the contract which you have specified in your PO item, because it is NOT a real reference - nor on services level as you have only limits in your PO item, nor on limit level since you have NOT entered a contract limit into your PO item.
    In order to understand this process please study the unplanned scenario and contract reference scenarios.

  • Service Entry sheet Creation for Shipment cost Document

    Dear All,
    While creating a shipment cost document .A service PO is getting generated in the back ground based on which a service entry sheet is created and LIV is made.But in the configuration we are mapping the Transportation planning point to Purchase organisation alone.
    Can some one let me know whether the generation of PO in the back ground for a shipment cost document in the back ground is a standard SAP feature if so can you tell me the configuration steps.
    Regards,
    K.Vivek

    Hi,
    Creation of Service PO in shipment cost document is based on the following SPRO setting or T-code.
    T code : T_56.
    SPRO > LE > Transportation > shipment cost Document > Shipment cost types and item categoires.
    Get into the details of item categoires, you can see the indicator Generate PO.
    hope this helps.

  • Service entry sheet creation from PO without selecting line item of PO?

    Dear SAPIENTS,
    While creating service entry sheet for one frame work order (PO) i do not want to select line item of PO. I want all the service of PO line item should come automatically in single service entry sheet number.
    At present whenm i enter the PO number its taking line item 10 as default because of this service of that line item is coming and for every line item i have to create different service entry sheet.

    Hi,
    in ML81N please enter the entry sheet header data, then go to full screen services, push the button for
    "service selection" and after that  a popup appeares for the service selection (SAPLMLSP
    0500). On the bottom of this popup you have the button "complete" = adopt all = F9. If you hit this
    button all of your services within the service specification will be copied into the entry sheet
    at the same time.

  • Service entry sheet creation for planned services

    Hi,
    I have created a service purchase order with planned services. After this I am trying to create a service entry. During ML81N, I give the P.O number and then click on create service entry.
    However, to adopt the services from the purchases, there is a service selection tab which takes the user to the services tab of the purchase order and then the user must select the relevant service and click on the adopt button to bring the  service into service entry sheet screen.
    However, in my  case, the service selection tab is not appearing on the service entry screen. Hence I am not able to call the services from the purchase order. I am on ECC 6.0 version.
    Am I missing some step in config or in procedure ?
    Kindly advice.
    Regards,
    Rajeev

    Hi,
    This doesn't sound like a config problem.
    If the services are on the PO then you should be able to select the option to choose them from the PO services.
    A remote (very remote) possibility is that you may have an authorisation problem, stopping you from being able to use the PO details? Is this possible? do you have authorisation to change this PO via ME22N etc:?

  • CATS - Service Entry Sheet creation

    Hi Experts,
    I'm trying to create a Service Entry Sheet via CAT2 but have been unsuccessful up to this point. I have been unable to solve this issue thus far and I've spent quite some time. I was hoping that someone out there might have some information that could aid me. At this point, I've done the following:
    I've created Info Types 0315, 0000, 0001, 0002, 0006, 0007, 0003, 0105, 0024, 0016, and 0019. In addition, the Personnel Number has been set up as with an Employee Group of 9 - External Employee. At this point I'm unable to actually create the Service Entry Sheet via CAT2 and I unable to figure out why.
    Kind Regards,
    Jason

    Hi Jason,
    if u merely create an employee with necessary infotypes thats not sufficient tobe able to access the timesheets thru CAT2. a data entry profile needs to be assigned to the userid along with appropriate authorisations.

  • Issue with service entry sheet creation using synchronous service

    Hi,
      I am using a synchronous service inside that i am calling bapi bapi_entrysheet_create with testrun
    set,so that commit doesnot happen inside the bapi,then outside i am explicitly calling commit work.
    Still database table is not updated,commit is not working.

    Hi Venu,
       But I cannot set test run as initial because if testrun is set to initial bapi_entrysheet_create logic
    is written in such a way that it calls commit work inside the bapi....and so we cannot rollback later
    in the synchronous service.

  • Service Entry Sheet in ECC 6.0 shipment costing security object?

    Does anyone know what security object is being checked during service entry sheet creation?  When I run the shipment cost create process in foreground (RV56TRSL) VI04, the program creates and settles the shipment cost, but in background only the shipment cost doc creates the settlement remains open (status A) and I get a message:
    You have no authorization for this transaction with movement type 101
    My assumption is a different object is being called in background versus foreground but my traces are not showing me anything useful. 
    thank you

    Shipment settlement in ECC 6.0 requires the users to have some version of the MIGO object to prefrom the goods movement.  this is a change from 4.7 and prior.

  • How to block WBS or Network element field in Service Entry Sheet ML81n

    Hi Guru
    Would like to seek your advise on the following query.
    We use Service master to trigger Purchase Order Service related (Item category = D; AAC = P).
    Then, user will use T\code ML81n to create service entry sheet by reference to Purchase Order and service master document. During Service entry sheet creation, usually WBS element or Network element field will be populated automatically based on the information from Purchase Order.
    However, user could overwrite the WBS element or Network element in service entry sheet. Thus, it creates discrepency WBS\Network element between PO and Entry Sheet.
    1. Is there any way we could retrieve Service entry sheet not to allow user to update the WBS\network element field?
    2. What will be the impact if we block the field from user.
    Please advise

    Hi Rag
    Thanks for your reply.
    When I trace the service master, there is no specify field to input WBS element.
    Also, I have checked the service master entered by user, it seems that only the following fields are filled:-
    Service Category
    BuoM
    Mat\Service Group
    Valuation class
    The rest of field are remained as blank as it might due to multiple WBS element shared 1 same service master
    Please advise how I should block the WBS element from service entry to prevent overwriting.
    Thanks

  • MM Service Entry Sheet Release Problem - Plant Not Considered

    Dear Experts,
    I have a problem in Service Entry Sheet Release as it does not consider plant although it is maintained in Release Strategy.
    I have created 1 Class for Service Entry Sheet Release.
    This class contains 3 Characteristics, 1st for Plant, 2nd for Value of Services and 3rd for Purchasing Group.
    Now the problem is that during the Entry Sheet Release, system does not consider the Plant in deciding the Release Strategy.
    It considers the first Release Strategy found for Purchase Group and Value of Service combination, thus ignoring the Plant Characteristic.
    Characteristic for Plant is having 'Released' Status
    Please suggest what to do so that the Plant is also considered in Release Strategy.

    Dear Charlie,
    Thanks for your reply.
    When I go to CL40N and check then system gives correct Release Strategy as it considers plant there.
    But when actually the Entry Sheet is created/saved then system gives wrong release strategy as it does not consider Plant.
    Let me tell you that my Release Strategies do contain common Purchase Groups but the Plants are different. So each Release Strategy is unique in this way.
    But during Service Entry Sheet Creation system does not consider Plant in determining Release Strategy.
    Please Help.
