Third-party back order process

Hi,
We created a third party sales order which in turn created the purchase requisition. The requisition is converted to PO and received a partial quantity.
But when I ran the back order processing transactions V_RA or CO06 the sales order is not appearing in any of these reports.
We are unable to activate the "Req/ Assembly" flag in the schedule line item category. Is there any way we can show the backorders for third-paty.
Thanks,
Srini

I think that the Third-party process is like a make-to-order process, so you cannot assign/remove availability because it is strictly related to the purchase order created from the sales order.
All you can do is a availability check (even with tcode V_V2) to syncronize the dates maintained in the puchase order back to the schedule lines in the sales orders.

In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer

Hi SAP SD Gurus,
In Third Party sales order processing how we come to know that the customer is recived the Goods from the vendor?
Thanks & Regards,
Sreenivas.P

From a high level view, the behavior should work like this:
- Sales order placed from customer PO via Tcode VA01. Purchase Requisition created upon saving the order
- Purchase order created with reference to Purchase Requisition via Tcode ME21N
- Receive confirmation from vendor that goods have shipped via EDI
- Create invoice receipt to vendor via Tcode MIRO
- Create billing document to bill customer via VF01

Third party sales Order processing

Hi gurus,
During Third party sales order processing, Purchase requision has been generated with account assignemnt category 'X',
While converting the Purchase requisition to Purchase order the system is not allowing me to save the purchase order,
As soon as i hit the save button the Pricing conditions are being deleted in purchase order ?
When i hit the save button again System is throwing me out giving a message
System error (error in method PO_CHECK)
Message no. ME816
This is happening only when a purchase order is being created for third party sales order processing.
Has any one faced this issue before, if yes please advise gurus,
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Gopio.

Hi
The account assignment category X has been maintained in
schedule line category CS and it is recommended by SAP
Yes perfectly right
SAP recommends only X as account assignment category for CS
If the PR is created successfully then there is no problem with related to SD configurations
The error message is more of an MM error
You need to check with an MM expert why that happens while creating PO from PR
I feel since this happns while saving the transaction there might be some userexit used which may be root cause
System error (error in method PO_CHECK)
Message no. ME816
As per my knowledge this is not a standard error
Because of activation of some userexit this is triggered
Functionally this is a MM area error
From SD side everything is correct

Third party Purchase order processing

Dear Experts,
In one of our business scenario we are purchasing materials from vendor and directly supplied it to customer,physical goods receipt is not done at our location,for third party account assignment in mandatory.
I have given account assignment as sales order ( C ) and in item category I have mention(THIRD PARTY- S ).
When I go for Invoice posting I am getting error ie.Enter GL Account
Please advice how to resolve this issue.Also mention what setting are needed for Third party order processing against account assignment as sales order.
Thanks

Hi
If you are doing third party order processing,
While creating the Sales order, it will create a purchase requisition in the back end. ( For thid in sales order line item, item category should be TAS)
While converting the PR to PO( all the account assingment would be copied).
Check the line tem of PR or PO - Account assignment Tab - G/L account and Sales order no).
I beleive it will automatically pick the sales order no and account assignment( G/L account) for the line item while creating PR.
Check it out.

Invoice entry - Third party sales order processing

The process is below:
- Trading Company A, enters a sales order at its system.
- Production Company B, makes the delivery to the customer.
- An invoice with respect to the delivery is created from Company A to the cıstomer and another invoice is created from Company B to Company A.
The revenues are posted to the related accounts at both companies. Do we have to enter incoming invoice for the purchase activity to be posted at the related accounts at Company A (trading company) or is creating an invoice from company B to A enough?

- Production Company B, makes the delivery to the customer.
- An invoice with respect to the delivery is created from Company A
Comp A will not issue the goods, so you can not create invoice wrt: delivery, It should be wrt: Order.
Once MIRO is done in Comp A: ( which is sent by Comp B against the delivered goods), then only you can create invoice wrt:SO, which is controlled in billing relevance - F Order related billing status according to Invoice (MIRO) quantity.

Third party Sales Orders in V.15 Back Order Report

Hi,
Is there any standard setting to incorporate undeliverd third party sales orders in the standard V.15 backorder report.
I need to get the list of third party SOs which are backordered??? similar to drop ship and stock orders (TAB & TAN).

As per my knowledge, in standard Third party Sales Orders process,
-On availability check.
-there is no GI.
-no movement type.
-TAS - I Cat - is not relevant for delivery.
The Standard process is
Create Third Party Sales Order (VA01/VA03 - retrieve PR num)* - Create Purchase Order (Display list of PR with ME57 and convert to PO with ME58) - Approval/Release of PO (if required - ME28) - Invoice Verification (MIRO)**
- Billing (VF01/vf04)
The PR number is automatically created in this step.
The incoming invoice from the vendor updates the billing quantity, so that the customer-billing document can only be created after entering the invoice from the vendor.
So, in standard TP sales process, Back order processing is not possisble. If you any other business process scenario, do share with us.
Thanks & Regards

Come here and discuss the business process of Third Party Purchase Order?

come here and discuss the business process of Third Party Purchase Order?
when this po is used and the following process is what?

Hi YuLin
It is a vague topic..anyways i will tell you one important scenario of the 3rd party order :Third Party Without Shipping Notification(its imp one)
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.
In this scenario, the vendor does not send a shipping notification. The incoming invoice from the vendor updates the billing quantity, so that the customer-billing document is only possible after entering the invoice from the vendor
Function List
The following functions are provided to support the Third Party Without Shipping Notification (J55) building block:
When the order is created, the specification of material numbers, quantity and conditions takes place at item level. As the material is not available on stock, a purchase requisition is created directly within the sales order.
Purchase Order Processing
The purchase requisition can already be automatically assigned during creation. If not, it is possible to assign the purchase requisition manually. The purchase order is created with reference to the purchase requisition. The quantity and the material are transferred from the sales order. The purchase order price can now also be determined using condition records.
Vendor Invoice Verification
The vendor invoice verification must take place before customer billing. The quantity of the invoice updates the quantity to be invoiced in the sales order.
Billing Documents
The billing documents are carried out on the basis of the order. Since the vendor might not deliver the exact quantity ordered, quantity adjustment takes place through the quantity in the vendor's invoice.
Controlling
The revenue and costs will be posted to CO-PA via the billing document
Key Points
As no shipping notification is available, the customer invoice can only be created after having finished vendor invoice verification.
Normal process you can refer in help.sap.com under this link

Capture cost of procured materials in a third party sales order scenario

Dear Experts,
I'm developing a third party sales order solution to my company following the recommended third party scenario by SAP.
Everything is working fine from creation of sales order, automatic creation of purchase requisition, create purchase order using the purchase requisition ect...
The problem I have is the in the Sales order, the cost of the material is not getting captured correctly. The condition maintained in the sales order is VPRS and it is deriving the material cost from the material master record. Ideally it should be deriving the material cost from the invoiced value or else from the purchase order(which is the actual amount we are spending to buy the items). Deriving the cost from material master depicts an incorrect profit in the sales order.
Can someone please advice me how to derive the cost(to be shown in the sales order under VPRS condition)from the invoice or the purchase requisition and Not from the material master.
I'll be grateful if you can describe in a step by step proceedure.
Thanks in advance

Hi Lakshmipathi
Thanks alot for your response.
As u mentioned, at the point of sales order creation the price does gets picked up from the Material Master.
But during Billing, it does NOT get updated to reflect the purchase order price. If that happens, then its perfect.
I did a complete testing cycle and the material master price remains unchanged throught the process upto billing.
Is there any special parameter that I should maintain in VPRS condition for this to happen?
Anyway thanks again for ur reply, appreciate it alot. Let me know your views on this.
As u advise I'll post it on the sales forum as well.

Randika

No CO-PA document on Third party Sales Order

We are doing Third Party Sales orders with Purchasing and Invoice REceipt, via the following process.
1 Sales order, 2) automatically creates the req via sales order, 3) delivery of sales order, 4) create the purchase order from the req. 5) post goods issue on the delivery, 6) Post goods receipt on purchase order, 7) bill and 8) invoice via miro.
the issue we have is that the variance(cOGS-PPV) account on the Miro does not go to CO-PA .
I believe that it is due to the Third Party sales order . re- oss 322497 and 772345.
Has anyone found a solution or have a similar problem.
I know that this is different from normal third party which does not deliver and receives PO and MIRO before the billing.

Hi Jeffrey,
If the corresponding purchase order belongs to a third-party deal,
please have a look at note 322497.
This would explain the behaviour that you are describing.
As explained in the note, during goods or invoice receipt for a
third-party transaction, as of Release 4.6, the system no longer
writes a line item in the costing-based profitability analysis.
Unlike the processing of a third-party deal in front of release 4.6 the
update of the goods receipt or the invoice receipt is not therefore
anymore required from the release 4.6 in the costing-based profitability
analysis.

Forecast Consumption from Third-party Sales Order

Dear SAP Gurus,
I would like to know how can I maintain a forecast that can be consumed by third-party sales order, if there is such standard SAP way to do that. What planning strategy and/or customizing do I need to do?
Thanks in advance for your help and support.
Kindly regards,

SAP Business Systems Analyst

Hi,
Whether SO consumes planned independent requirements or not it depend on your planning startegy.
Please check 'Planning with final assembly' (strategy 40). /Third party sales orders are equal to other SO, so, I think you caanot make difference third party and normal process from planning point of view/

Route determination third party sales order

We are using third party sales order. The process flow is as follows.
Sales order -> Purchase requisition-> Purchase order-> Vendor ships material directly to customer.
Route is currently determinined based on the following:
1. Departure zone (from shipping point)
2. Shipping condition ( from ship to customer master)
3. Transportation Group (rom material master)
4. Destination zone (Transportation zone of the Customer in the order)
Shipping point is in US, but the vendor who ships material to customer is in China. So, we want the Departure zone for the purpose of Route tdeterimination to be based on address in vendor master, and not shipping point.
Is there anyway, we can do this?
Thanks,
Srini

Dear Srini,
Welcome to SCN forum....
I find route determination for third party sales not logical. Just think in Third-Party Orders, theres is no Material-Movement and no Deliveries from our Plant;
In this case Route Determination will not be applicable. Customer has placed order to you and you have placed an order to your vendor, who directly deliver the goods to your customer. And you dont have to decide which route customer's transporter will take?
So as per me you need not determine routes in case of third party sales order.
Thanks,
Raja

Prevent Third Party / Sales order stock for blocked vendors

Hi Experts.
We have scenarios for Third party processing and Sales order stock. We have a scenario of a fixed vendor for a material. The purchasing function frequently does block vendors for purchasing.
However, we find that this does not prevent creation of a third party / sales order stock item in the sales order and a PR is generated. It is only found during the PR --> PO conversion that the vendor is blocked at which time someone has to manually reject the line items.
Is there a way to prevent the system from being able to generate a PR for a blocked vendor ? I guess one possibility is to enhance the requirement routine for PR creation. Is there any other approach ?
Appreciate your help
Regards
Rohit Zalani

Hi
In MK05, block vendor for all Purchasing org and Select Block Function = 03 Block quot. req., order, goods receipt
If you do this setting then user will get error message that "Vendor is blocked" and "Purchase requisition could not be generated for component".

Closed Third party Sales order still showing on Customer credit exposure

Hi,
We had earlier closed the status for a partially Invoiced Third party Sales order ,where Goods Receipt quantity was more than the PO and Customer Sales order quantity from Being Processed to completed through a Z transaction.
The payments for all the quantities delivered to the customers have been received for this particular third party order,but the value of one of the sales order item is showing as an exposure in the customer credit account.
Since there is no outstanding amount for this Sales order,How can this be resolved so as to this Sales order item amount should not appear in Customer credit account?
Inputs regarding this would be appreciated.
Regards
Mohammed Roshan

Hi Jurijs,
Have you checked LVKMPFZ1, LVKMPFZ2 & LVKMPFZ3 to find out if there is any code for credit checks and blocks in these user exits. Also please check FORM USEREXIT_AVAIL_CHECK_CREDIT under include MV45AFZF to find out if there is any code which is entered to not allow the availability check for blocked sales orders and therefore stopping the transfer of requirements inthe form of PR generation.
Don't worry about going into ECC 6.0. Once you will start the upgrade process on ECC 6.0, you will come to know a set of transaction codes which you can run into the system to find out the non standard ABAP code changes which exists in your SAP landscape.
