Service of third party material

dear experts ,
I have a scenario wherein i want to sell a third party machine to a customer wherein my client acts as a middle man & no sale purchase agreements are made directly with the vendor & customer.
Further my client also wants to provide regular maintenance service for the same material .
How can this be mapped in SAP ?
Thanks

Hi
Third party sales means that material is not manufactured by us and the same is supplied to our customer from a third party vendor
We receive the sales order from our customer
Up on receipt of sales order or saving a purchase requestion is created automatically by the system
Then MM department process this purchase requestion and make a PO and that is send to a vendor
The vendor delivers the goods to our customer and he gives us the invoice
Upon receipt of invoice from the vendor we bill our customer
This a normal third party process
These whole settings are controlled by item category group and item category and schedule line category
For a third party material item category group defined in sales org data 2 tab of MMR is BANS
The item category determined in sales order will be TAS
The schedule line category determined in sales order will be CS
Thre are some very important settings in item category TAS and schedule line category CS which controls these whole 3rd Party Sales
There is another process is also practised (not so commonly) sometimes that is from vendor we take the goods to our plant and inturn we deliver to our customer
The item category determined in this case is TAB
the issue i think relates to this

  • Plant Determination for Third Party Material as Child Item in Sales Order

    Hi All,
    We have an issue with the Plant Determination for Third Party Material as Child Item in a Sales Order.
    Even when a Delivering Plant is maintained for the child item which is a Third Party Material, the plant of the Parent Item is only populated as the Default plant in the Sales Order
    Can someone explain the reason behiind this determination.
    P.S.- For all non -Third PartyChild Items (with non-Third Party Item Catefory & Material Type), the Plant is population correctly as per Delivering plant in Material Master.
    TIA.

    However, can someone suggest work around to deal with this issue.I mean if any one has been doing any work around for this issue then please let me know.It s becoming critical for me.

  • Allow desktop interaction within Azure Cloud Service with third-party desktop app (automated via code)

    Hello,
    I am developing a wrapper service as Worker Role which will take request from Service Bus and automate a third-party desktop app to produce an output file and then upload result back to our web server.  The automation is accomplished with the app's
    built-in .Net remoting based API.  This all works on my local development machine.  I am using code as below to start the desktop app.  In Azure:
    If I am not logged on to RDP and run the app as SYSTEM (or whatever the default WorkerRole account is), it waits forever for the MainWindowHandle.
    if I start the app manually in the RDP and try to get a reference to the running process (again as SYSTEM), I get Access Denied from WaitForInputIdle.
    if I start the app from code as the RDP user (ProcessStartInfo assign user/pass), I get InvalidOperationException - the app might not have a graphical interface from the WaitForInputIdle.
    Could anyone suggest the proper strategy for starting processes in a Worker Role that must create a window?
    For reference, I only care about the window to the extent that I need to make sure it's there.  All other interaction with the process is via the .Net Remoting API.
    private void GetOrStartThirdPartApp()
    _process = Process.GetProcessesByName("ThirdPartApp").FirstOrDefault();
    if (_process == null)
    _process = new Process();
    _process.StartInfo.Arguments = string.Format(@"-I ""{0}""", config.GetSetting("RolePath"));
    _process.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = config.GetSetting("WorkingFolder");
    _process.StartInfo.FileName = config.GetSetting("ExecutablePath");
    _process.StartInfo.LoadUserProfile = true;
    _process.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
    if (config.GetSettingAsBoolean("StartThirdPartAppWithRunAs", false))
    _process.StartInfo.UserName = "user";
    var password = new SecureString();
    foreach (var c in "thepassword".ToCharArray())
    password.AppendChar(c);
    _process.StartInfo.Password = password;
    _process.Start();
    while (_process.MainWindowHandle == IntPtr.Zero) Thread.Sleep(50);
    _process.WaitForInputIdle();
    _process.Exited += _process_Exited;

    I'd keep the app with the UI and the queue reader in the same process and account - not a worker role.  On start up you launch the desktop application and the queue reader in the same account, one after another.
    From what I've experienced, two users don't have the same
    Window Stations, so you can't pass a window handle in a different logged-in account across that boundary.  Read the Window Station documentation - you may find something that helps.
    You could use other techniques like sockets to communicate cross-process and cross-window station, too.

  • How to remove SMTP service from third-party cert

    I mistakenly assigned the SMTP service to my commercial cert.  I say this because I did not include the server name on the cert (the cert has the
    CASarray.domain.com, webmail.domain.com, and autodiscover.domain.com names).  I've tried just clearing the radio button in the wizard, but it does not remove the service.  Can someone please tell me how to do this?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    We don’t need to remove the SMTP service. Just generate a new certificate with the server name on the certificate and assign SMTP service to it.

    Hello venkat,
    A simple explanation for item category determination is given below..
    Item category determination enables the system to propose the corresponding item category for sales document type through item category group.
    T-code: vov4
    Fields in the item category determination are:
    •     sales document type
    •     item category group
    •     item usage
    •     higher level item category
    •     default item category
    •     manual item category
    The usage is used to determine the ITEM CATEGORY, it is maintained in CUSTOMER MATERIAL INFO RECORDS, and in the bottom most part of the screen u can see it.
    feel free to ask any doubts..
    <b>**PLEASE REWARD POINTS IF THIS HELPS**</b>

  • How To: Get Quickly To Music Services without Third Party Apps!

    Apologizes everyone I tried to provide quick links to Spotify music service profile pages, but the coding on the board has dramatically changed now. You will have to copy and paste the profile URI's and paste them into the search box in the desktop app and hit enter to go to those profiles. Edited to change the URI's over to HTTP links instead. Note if you want them to open in the new desktop app just copy and paste them into the search and hit enter on the keyboard. Blue Note Records - http://open.spotify.com/user/bluenoterecords Pitchfork - http://open.spotify.com/user/pitchforkmedia Billboard - http://open.spotify.com/user/billboard.com Last.fm - http://open.spotify.com/user/lastfmofficial Rolling Stone Magazine - http://open.spotify.com/user/rsedit Anyone can add to the thread as before.

    For those who used the Filtr App in the Spotify service you can get to the profile pages here: Global Filtr Profile Page - http://open.spotify.com/user/filtr Filtr US Profile Page - http://open.spotify.com/user/myplay.com Filtr Sweden  - http://open.spotify.com/user/sonymusicentertainment Filtr Germany - http://open.spotify.com/user/playlists.germany Filtr Espana - http://open.spotify.com/user/mejoresplaylistsspotify Filtr Danmark - http://open.spotify.com/user/sonymusicdenmark Filtr Norway - http://open.spotify.com/user/sonymusic Filtr UK - http://open.spotify.com/user/sonymusicuk Filtr France - http://open.spotify.com/user/iloveplaylists Filtr Switzerland - http://open.spotify.com/user/sonymusicswitzerland I think users get the idea, just use the word Filtr in the search bubble and select show all results, and then choose the Profiles option for all Filtr profile pages.

  • Free of charge third party process.

    Dear Gurus,
    I want to create a sales order with a third party material with zero price, create a PO and invoice the PO with zero value.
    Could you please tell me how this can be achieved and what are the necessary settings in config to be changed?
    Thank You
    Kumar

    Hi Kumar,
    the third party process is as follows:
    1.Customer will order the material from the Company X.
    2.Company X will not have stock of the material.
    3.Company will raise a PO for the material to the Vendor & asks the Vendor to deliver the material to the customer.
    4.Vendor will directly deliver the material to the customer & will send the invoice to the Company X.
    5. Company X will then raise a invoice to the Customer wrt on the Sales order.
    Create a Sales order with item category TAS, Schedule line category CS(standard).Once the SO is saved, go to the change mode of the SO, go to Schedule lines tab, & note down the PR number.
    With reference to the PR, create the PO & then MIGO and MIRO.
    Then create the invoice wrt the SO.
    Let me know if you hav any problems.
    Regards,

  • Return process in third party

    Hi sap gurus,
    please find one senario mentioned below
    i have raised a sales order with 630 units of a third party material, followed by
    630 units of Tata Swach Crystal were sold to M/s Friendu2019s Combine Indore (Madhya Pradesh) through third party sale order from TWGZ plant (Uttarpradesh) on 30/11/2011.
    It was a CST sale. Here all the sales are made against advance payment.
    Materials were purchased from The Supreme Industries Noida. Since it was a third party sale, initially Third Party Sale order (SO No - 2010209914) was created. Order type ZTPS.
    From the sale order Purchase requisition was generated (PR No -3900009137 ) and then PO was generated (PO No - 4100007931).Based on the PO vehicle was loaded and GR (GR No -  5105605330) and Miro was done  and then invoice (Invoice No u2013 2644001743) was generated in the warehouse (TWGZ plant).
    Invoices were handed over to the driver and vehicle was dispatched for delivery of goods to Indore. Goods are invoiced on delivered basis (Vehicle is arranged by company).
    Now on the way to Indore (in MP) vehicle met an accident and 50% of the materials got damaged.
    50% good stocks were kept at transport go down for about 1 year where it took time for investigation to complete for insurance claim. In the mean time company has come up with a new warehouse at Indore (TWID plant).  Now that the investigations are over, company wants to take GR/build up  50% good stocks in TWID plant.
    Also note that after the accident to cater customer requirement, credit for 630 units were given to the customeru2019s account. Now it is also important to normalise customeru2019s account as because customer had already paid the amount in advance. 
    Now please suggest the ways to build up the 50% good stock in TWID plant.

    Hello,
    Firstly, let me request you not to disclose the Client's business details (like Customer Name, Vendor Name, Material Name, Plant codes, etc) on Public Forums.
    Now, coming to your question, there are many angles to your question.
    1. The Transaction has happened sometime in November 2010 & you too would know that MM & FI Periods would be closed by now.
    2. Your client would have already filled Excise & Sales Tax Returns to espective authorities by now.
    3.  You have mentioned that after accident Credit of 630 Units was given to Customer? What do you mean by this statement? Was a Credit Memo was issued? or the Advance Payment received Entry was reversed? or another Delivery of 630 units was made to Customer?
    4. What about Vendor? Has he already beed paid?
    You will have to throughly discuss this matter with client & ask them what is that they exactly require to be done now & then explore the options.
    Hope this helps,
    Thanks,
    Jignesh Mehta.

  • In Third party sales, Part of MM..?

    Hi guru's
    Can explain about third party sales and what is major part of work for MM in that.
    1.Please send me the overall flow in Third party sales process  with Transaction codes.
    thanks

    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.
    Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales
    Customize the third party sales in summary:
    Prerequisites for 3rd party sales,
    Purchasing org,
    purchasing group,
    assign the Purchase org to company code
    assign Purchase org to plant,
    should not maintain the stock in material, it should be trading goods,
    1. Create Vendor XK01
    2. Create Material – Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
    3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
    4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
    5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
    6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
    7. Goods receipt MIGO
    8. Goods issue
    9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and, therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.
    10. Billing *--
