Service Material Type & Purchase

Hi,
We have a Material Type u2018ZSERu2019 which is defined as u201CService Materialu201D. Its Item category code has been defined as u2018LEISu2019 (Service w/o Delivery), because itu2019s a service we provide to our customers which need to record in our sales orders. User departments for ZSER type also include Purchasing.
Now if I simply create a Material item of type ZSER, can it also be purchased via o Purchased Order?
If so how can I restrict raising PRs or POs for any materials of type ZSER?

Hi,

don't maintain any purchasing view for material type ZSER in t-code OMS2
without Purchasing view Po can not be created

Service Material Type(DIEN) handling

Dear all
How do we handle Service material Type? if we are not handling services in Ext services management. What will be the cycle of procurement, for example shal I have 1. material master, 2. vendor 3. inforecord, 4. Source list? Can I use Normal PO for ordering the service material, and what about goods receipt and stock and value maintenance and finally how do I handle Invoicing?
Thanks

Hi Samuel,
Procurement of Service material is same as procurement cycle of any material, the only difference is that instead of good receipt we do service entry sheet and invoice verification W.R.T. Service entry sheet.
Yes, you can maintain 1. Material Master, 2.Service Mater, 3.Vendor, 4.Inforecord.
5. You can not use normal PO and have to maintain account assignment category (K or C or P or any one ur requirement) and item Category D in PO (ME21N)
6. Create service entry sheet (ML81N) with respect to Purchase order,
7. Invoice Verification (MIRO) with respect to Service entry sheet
8. Payment to Vendor
Hope the above will help you,

Service Limits in Purchase Requisitions: Where to Insert Custom Code?

The issue is related to finding a place in SAP logic where a BADI, or, an
enhancement can be implemented when inside transaction ME52N for a
Service Limits type Purchase Requisition where K is the Account
Assignment and B is the Item Category for a Service Limit Purchase
requisition. Especially. or initially, at the point of navigation when
going from (within the Limit Tab) and selecting the Account Assignment
Icon to the right.
By finding a good place to insert custom code in between these two tabs
during navigation I am referring to (1)the actuality of the transaction
breaking into this location, and,(2)a place where the global fields can
be read and changed ie. GL Account Number, Material Group, etc.
I have read, and reviewed several SAP Notes: 496082, 627072 and 551863.
Failed Attempts:
1)I have tried finding BADIs via breakpoints inside of
CL_EXITHANDLER~GET_INSTANCE. None that are found are used and are not ofany help.
2)I have attempted to use various user exits within the following SMODs,to name a few:
MEREQ001 |Customers' Own Data in Purchase Requisition
SAPLF0PR |Requests: Account Determination and Checks
SAPMF02H |Function exit: G/L account master data
V45E0002 |Data transfer in procurement elements (PRreq., assembly)
WDFE0001 |Customer-Specific Determination of Requirements Data
COZF0001 |Change purchase req. for externally processed operation
COZF0002 |Change purchase req. for externally procured component
3)I have implemented various custom enhancements inside of SAP Main
Program SAPLMEREQ inside include LMEREQF09, and a few other LMEREQFXX.
4) We previously used BADI 'ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST' to satisfy a similar
requirement, but is of no help for this request.
Thank-You,

Custom tags are different than udfs. Let's stick with udfs. Your location choices are:
1. If only one template is going to use it, you can put it in that template. Otherwise,
2. You can put it in a .cfm file and cfinclude that file whenever you want to call the function, or
3. You can put it into a .cfc.
A little while back, someone ran some tests and posted the results on one of these forums. The gist of it was that Option 2 would run faster than Option 3.

How this is possible. You are creating PO in ME21n, right? It should be there. Look closely.

SERVICE PO using service master and service PO using Material Type DIEN

Dear Gurus can you differenciate between SERVICE PO using service master and service PO using Material Type DIEN ?
Regards
Vinod Suresh Kakade

Hi,
Material type DIEN is used for when you offer "SERVICE" to your customer.
When you are procuring "SERVICE" from your vendor, you can use external service management where service master is used (Steps are PO created in ME21N with Item Cat. "D" with Acc. ***. Cat. "K" or "C", ML81N, MIRO & F-53).
In Standard DIEN material type designed for Sales usage only, but you can use DIEN for Purchase also to avoid External Services Management.

Service master and material type 'service'

Hi everybody.
I am a bit confused about "Service"
There is a service master that we can use to store and procure service.
Also we can use material master to store 'service' using material type 'service' and procure service in that way.
I want to know what is the difference between the two ? When shall I use what ?

Hi
If you do not want to use 'External Service Management', you can use materials of type Service (DIEN).
This will be similar to any other account assigned material PO with free text. Instead of using free text, you are using material master and also helps you in identifyign service purchases from other material purchases. You will not use item category 'D' in this case. You do GR here.
Service masters are used when you use item category 'D' ('External Service Management'). There are additional flexibility of defining service specifications, service outlines, using service entry sheet etc here.

Transfer material type DIEN in ECC system to CRM product type Service

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to transfer material type DIEN in ECC system to CRM product type Service.
How can we do this?

Hi Viswanath,
   I dont think its possible to replicate material type DIEN from ECC to CRM Service Product.
   Service Products need to created in CRM, from here transfer to ERP. To transfer service product from CRM to ECC, you need to enable upload for Service Product in SPRO.
       Customer Relationship Management -->
             Master Data -->
                    Products -->
                        Settings for Product Type -->
                                Allow Upload for a Product Type.
   Now here select the check box for product type 02(service).
To send product from CRM to ECC, open the product you need to send it to ECC in COMMPR01.
         Go To -> Transfer to ERP. Here give the ECCRFC Destination and mapping material type.

Restricting Purchase order for a particular material type

Hi All,
How do I restrict a purchase order document type to be created for a particular material type.
For eample PO document type NB should allow to create for materials with the material type ROH only and restrict the other material types by issuing an error.
Many thanks in advance.
Regard,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
This is not directly achievable in std. You will have to implement the check in a user exit, e.g. the BAdI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST method PROCESS_ITEM.
But why this strange reqmt? Maybe there's another solution whuch would keep you in std?

Reports of service / material purchase orders

Hi,
in my firm receipt of services is done in tcode ML81N
and receipt of material is done in tcode MIGO
is it possible to extract a report of all purchase orders of services, i.e. purchase orders that were received through ML81N,

Item Category for Service item is 'D'. For non service keep it blank.
Below are the Item Categories used for ordering.

For 3 rd pary service provider - what material type could be used??

I am a third pary service provider warehouse. I receive materials from different customers in loose units . After receiving i palletize the material the material. Since i do not have any idea what materials i receive i am planning to use material type nonvaluated but stock material. I do not know how far it will satisfy my requirement.Any suggestion or ideas .....

Hello,
You are procuring the materials, palletizing the same & selling it across. In such cases, you can maintain the material type as HAWA(Trading Goods).
But before changing the materilal type to HAWA from UNBW, kindly ensure that you have to close all the open orders for the material type UNBW.
Hope these inputs will satisfy your requirements.

Mahesh
