  • Repair Purchase Order without Service Master

    Good Day Guru's
    I need your help please.  A little history....
    I have recently took a position at a company as their SAP Admin and quit the consulting world.  We go live first of December....While looking at some config, requirements, etc. one of the things  I ran into is  that there was not a process in place for a delivery order being created for a repair order (Misc PO), STO or for  a Sub Contract PO.  I spoke with the Purchasing Manager in reference to this; and she said she was never told about a delivery order as an option....I suggested we should have an automated process in place for a repair PO.  As the design sits now, the buyer will have to manually take the PO to the shipping department, there is not a delivery order, packing list, etc being created.  The functional consultant with the company we have implementing our solution, set up a MISC PO without delivery and did not explain the functionality of a delivery order to them so the company could make a good sound judgement on a process.  I then had a meeting with the Purchasing Manager, Functional Consultant, and also his superior.  He was then asked to put a process in place and come back with a solution.  Well, they did this yesterday (I was out sick).  He stated that "since no service master" for the repair process and external operations that it is not possible to create delvery since these PO's are for service; so go with current design."  Since the STO and the Sub Contract PO did not have delivery orders either that our company wanted to see a demo on the delicery order process before they say yes. 
    In my experience you can create a delivery order with the sub con process with an enhancement ...or at least I thought (been a while since I worked with purchasing).  Has this changed?  Why would I need to set up the Service Master for this (I know it is SAP best practice but  all I wanted was a delivery order process), our requirement was not to track every step of the repair on the PO as an operation.....
    My question comes down to this.   Is the reason I can't use the repair order as a sub con process due to the fact they are using the sub con process for a true sub contract?  Can this be set up as two different categories so both could be used?  Is there another way to get a delivery order created for a repair po (in this case misc po)?  Is there something I need to suggest differently in order to show it is a repair PO versus a true sub contract?  I would appreciate some guidance on this that I can pass to the functional consultant....
    I just find that not using the delivery order process not very efficient and not to mention placing a manual task for shipping material out to vendor for repair.  Hopefully I made this clear.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    You need to show purchase cost in some GL account. System recognises GL account through material master or material group with account assignment combination. Without these two you cannot identify to which account postings should happen. Assign a valuation class to a material group in OMWQ and assign a GL account to valuation class in GBB - VBR for automatic picking of GL account in purchase order. However you can overwrite this GL account as per the requirement.
    Thanks

  • Creating Service Entry Sheet without using Service Master/Service lines

    We are invoking the BAPI_EntrySheet_Create to create the service entry sheet. We are currently facing this issue...
    1) For assigned PO's, we are getting the PO item and Account assignment information from BAPI_PO_GetDetail. We are using these values to populate the parameters/tables to invoke BAPI_EntrySheet_Create. For population the Entrysheetservices table, we are not using information from Service Master/Service lines but use the information we get from an external system to populate the Service lines(ESLL). We do not provide a Package No/Service information when invoking the BAPI but populate the service lines with short text, quantity, Gross price etc without service information like package no, outline indicator etc. The BAPI creates a service enty sheet successfully(this is without the SES Acceptance indicator not being set) but when we lookup the SES# from ML81n transaction the ESLL details lines are not displayed.
    When displaying the SES using transaction ML81N, the header information is displayed correctly but the lines are not displayed. The Header information is correctly populated in ESSR table and detail is also populated in ESLL table. I think the cross reference information is correctly set in ESLH table to pull up the detail when ML81N as it is missing the package/sub pack information.
    Your expert advise in resolving this issue is very much appreciate. Please advise.

  • DIEN vs. service master record

    Hello gurus,
    I know there are two ways of maintaining master data for services:
    - Material master records with material type DIEN
    - service master records
    Now, what are the pros and cons of each alternative?
    One thing I found out is that if I use DIEN-materials there is no way to record the provision of the service because there can be no goods receipt for DIEN-materials, correct?
    What factors did I miss?
    Thanks
    Alicia

    Thank you to both of you,
    first of all, Kishore, you are perfectly right: A goods receipt can be performed for DIEN-materials, too. I got that one mixed up with service items in purchasing orders.
    But then, the two answers unfortunatlly are a little contradictionary. In my view DIEN-materials can be used for procurement, too. So the sole difference for the process is that service master records are more detailed in reference to recording what exactly has been done and how long it took?
    That means, if I only nead a means to record if a service has been provided or not (without recording any times etc.), DIEN materials are sufficient, correct?
    Thanks again

  • Control over delivery in service master

    Hi,
    we have purchasing value key which is assigned in material master.the value set in this key help to control the over delivery in the PO. is it possible to restrict unlimited receipt for service PO.
    Regards,
    Anjali

    Hi Anjali Kumari ;
    I think that you do not want to maintain in service master data. Also , you can procure with or without service master, it is possible.
    I recommend ;
    1- Create a screen layout - required fields : delivery tolerances - tcode OMF4
    2- Maintain EFB parameter , add this layout Z01 type. Assign it users.
    3- After that this users create PO when they have to fill this area in po.

  • Service Master Records Utilization

    Dear all,
    I am currently implementing service master records for my client who used to be having free text entry for services.
    As for the service master records, I have the following requirements:
    1. Service master records will not be the lowest detailed level.
    2. However, the client wants to have a rigid way of controlling unit rates.
    3. For example, "IT Consultancy" will be a service master created for procurement purposes. However, different service providers would have different unit rates for each level. Say, Manager Daily Rate, Consultant Daily Rate etc.
    The question is, what is the best alternative to represent these unit rate (reflecting them in PR, PO), without having to create service master records for each of them? Please advice!
    Thanks!

    Anyone could share some suggestions?

    Hi Manish
    I assigned valuation class in service master and using same service master for service PO creation, but while doing GR system picks WRX account without valuation class but not the GL account assigned to the valuation class in service master?
    I tried with assigning service group/ material group at PO item over view to same valution class in OMQW but still not able to post to separate GL account in OBYC. Is there anything missing?
    As far as my understanding service PO WRX entries will be posted to the GL account witout valuation class.

  • How to remove the Mandatory indicator of Activity Number in Service Master?

    Hi,
    Can some one tell haw can I remove the mandatory indicator of Activity Number field in Service Master (AC03)?
    Regards.

    Hi,
    In ACNR the number range is assigned based on the service category.
    Go to SPRO - MM - External Service management - Service master - Define Service Category, please untick the check box for External Number Assignment Without Validation against the respective Service Category and save.
    Now try creating a new service master using AC01, it will pick the service master No. from the internal number range maintained against the Service Category

  • Problem in service master (AC01)

    Hi,
    My client is using SAP 4.7 ECC.  In the client system, unit of measure field set as mandatory field in Service master (T.Code- AC01). As per system setting, system should not allow to create a new service master via T.Code – AC03 by keeping unit of field blank. However, occasionally system allows the user to create service master without entering any thing in the unit of measure field. Once the service is created with unit of measure field as blank, system not allow the user to enter into edit mode of service master (T.Code – AC02). System give massage ‘Please maintain unit of measure’.
    Can any one so kind to help me for resoling this issue.
    Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
    Regds,
    sp sahu

    Hi,
    If unit of measure field set as mandatory field in Service master how system will allow you save service master without entry of unit of measure? Just check the following path:
    SPRO->MM->External Service Management->Service Master->Field Display for service Master->Define Field Selection for Service Master (List Entry)
    And check here base unit of measure is in position of ‘Input” or “Required”, Display” or “Hide’ Or “highlighted”

  • Contracts - Service master price update

    Hi All,
    There was requirement in which the contract service master prices were required to be changed.
    To update new condition price in the condition records, we created a program to update these values using ML52.
    Eg. Contract A - item 10- Service S - old price - 100 - Valid till yesterday
                                             new price - 200 valid from today
    We have a few problems here
    1) Contract A always show old price even though valid price for this service today is 200 for the service S.
    Is there any standard program which will correct this contract and get the new price seen in the contract based on the valid date. I.e. the service prices in the contract should always reflect the valid condition record price from ML52.
    2) While updating ML52 there were two kinds of records. One with Plant specific and others without plant. Now when I go to contract, select services and select a service line item and click on the new condition record which is valid today and come back. If the condition record is plant specific, the new price 200 is immidiately seen on the contract service master screen. But if the ML52 value was not plant specific, it always shows me 100. What could be the reason for this.
    I have tried to give as much details as I can. Let me know incase any more information is required.
    Regards,
    Shahu

    Hi,
    Certain condition types can be changed via mass maintenance (transaction MEDL) in a contract, the conditions in all                   
    selected documents are correctly changed. However, even if you display                     
    one of those contracts, the values on item level are NOT updated at all!                   
    This only happens when a MANUAL start of the price determination                           
    occurs, it is NOT performed automatically!
    Nevertheless, the user can be SURE that correct príces are found by the system whenever such a  contract service is selected, no matter what is written in that contract                                        
    itself!                                                                               
    If prices are entered into a contract with different validity periods,             
    the system does not update them automatically, but one has to use the pulldown menu option                
    'prices -> find new' after having selected one item line and switched              
    to the service fullscreen. If you want to update the service      
    contract with latest price then you have to use the following:           
    Me32K->item services->service conditions here goto menu                  
    service specipications -> prices-> find New. Then system updates the      
    price with the current validy date price. In already existing contracts you must carry out a new pricing manually.                               
    Please test additionally the batch input process for price updation in contracts - transaction SHDB.
    I can not answer your question regarding the update of non plant specific data. Sorry.
    Regards,

  • Local contract for service master doesn't picked in PDP

    Dear Experts,
    We are on SRM 7.0 and in using PDP Scenario. Having created a local contract for service master which is released and acting as a source of supply when creating the shopping cart for the service master, however when purchase requisition is being transferred to the SRM system agains the same service master the shopping cart in available in the sourcing cockpit instead of picking the existing contract. Set the option as "sourcing carried without source of supply" , however this scenario works well for material master but not for service master, please advise me on this fix or any limitation in this version.
    Thanks and Regards,

    Wrong assignment of P org with P grp is the route cause, found the error and rectified which is working fine.

  • Valuation class for service master

    Hi Guys,
    I am trying for automatic G/L account determination for Service PO's. My issue i have to enter g/l code for each line item in the PO. I am not sure how the g/l account determination based on valuation class works for Service PO's
    I have assigned the account category reference to the service category and to the valuation class 3200 i have assigned a g/l account for the key FRL.
    Please let me know what I am missing?
    Thanks and regards,
    Siddharth M

    Hi Sidmi
    The account assignment settings made for materials consumption will work for services also .
    You do not need FRL for services (it's for sub-contracting)
    Account category reference decides which all valuation classes can be used for a service category. It does not determine valuation class in a transaction (it's only checks with this setting).
    If you want to determine GL account automatically in your txns, then you have following options:
    1) Spro>Material management>Purchasing>material master->entry aids for items without material master
    For all the material groups you want to use for services , assign a valuation class here.
    2) If you maintain service masters, then you can assign valuation class in service master.
    Best regards

  • Assignment of Service master records

    Hi,
    Can I assign service master records to a company code or to a plant (just like Item s?), if so, how can I view the current service master records that are assigned to a specific company code or plant?

    Hi,
    Service master is a master data like material master, vendor master,G/L master &  HR master.But in the case of service master creation,  Service Category , service group/material group & valuation class play vital role which needed most.You can links material group for service  to valuation class of service in t.code: OMQW & the account determination for service which is without material master are done where  G/L accountu2019s are assigned with respected to material group basis of service.
    Service master is at client level not assigned to any company code or any plant. You can check the service master created list in t.code: AC06.

  • "Expense" of service master

    Hi Experts,
    I need the expert advice...!!
    I have just registered a new service. But, I don't know the meaning of the check box "Expense"....
    Could you tell me the meaning of "Expense" in service master?
    And, does it use in any case? If possible, please tell me an actual example?
    Warm Regards,
    Ryota Ichida

    Hi Ryota,
    Let me explain the difference in the context of a Professional Service Provider (PSP) using ByD.
    PSPs sell services (say "Senior Consultancy", e.g.) to their customers via sales order items.
    These services are set up in the Work Center "Product and Service Portfolio" (without the "expense" indicator being set).
    Usually the "process controls" "Purchasing", "Sales", and "Valuation" are active.
    In addition, sales prices and service cost rates are defined for those services.
    In order to render their services the consultants also need to travel. Such Expenses usually need to be charged to the PSP's customer
    Travel is either some uplift contained in the services sold, then the PSP is done and does not have to care about "expenses".
    If however, the PSP charges travel explicitly to their customers, then they need expenses that are set up in the Work Center "Product and Service Portfolio" as services with the expense indicator being checked.
    They would, for example, create an expense "Travel" with base-unit "each" and include it as one item (item type "Expense - Time and Material (Project)") in the sales order. Then, later on, they can use this expense for invoicing expenses of an expense report or a supplier invoice to their customers.
