Third Party Sales Process

Dear All,
When creating a Third Party Sales Order, the PR gets generated but the system asks for a WBS element in the incompletion log (the field is not maintained in Incompletion Log).
The Account Assignment Catagory in Schedule Line is for Third Party (with only GL as mandatory option.)
The Requirement Class/Type combination has also been maintained with Account Assignment as blank (Notification not required), The valuation field is also blank so that Sales Order/Project Valuation should also not come into the process.
The Stratogy Group of the Material is not maintained and as per standard the system should follow the following logic
1. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.
2. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
MRP Group is also not there
3. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
Material Type is also not controlling this
4. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
Item catagory is maintained but not the MRP Type (although the MRP Type is maintained in Material Master)
5. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
6. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements.
I have also maintained the option of Determination Of Requirement Types Using Transaction as 1.
Could anyone help me out with the issue?
Regards,
N

Hi,
3rd Party is nothing but trading business. you Receive a order from your customer (sales Order) n Issue/raise Purchase Order on Vendor. and ask ur vendor to delivery the goods directly to your customer.
steps in R/3
1. Create Sales Order (VA01)
2. System will create PR in backgroud (ME53N)
3. Convert PR into PO. (ME21N)
4. Create GR (Optional) (MIGO-101)
5. Create IV(Vendor Invoice) (MIRO)
6. and finally Generate SD Billing (VF01)
This is SD-MM Integrated business process.
hope this will clear you.

  • Cannot do MIGO in Third Party Sales Process with shipping notification

    In the Third party sales process with Shipping notification,the item category for the material is TAS (Billing relevance=R),item category group is BANS.
    Intially sales order is created,then using me21n with reference to purchase requisation purchase order is created,then in MIGO stage i used the PO No there but i get the message no item found in PO.
    what adjustment have to be done in order to do MIGO

    Refer following SDN thread, by that you will be able to get overview on best practices about Third Party Sales & necessary configuration you need to follow for statistical GR:
    - Third party direct shipment (II)
    Further maintain Billing Relevance for Item Category as G - Order-related billing of the delivery quantity.

  • Query about third party sale process

    Hi,
    SD experts,would u please tell me the acctual spro configuration of "third party sale process".

    Hi Anirban,
    First, there is a note 550388 which is the FAQ note for customizing of third-party process.
    Actually the main configuration is just the item category and schedule line category.
    You could refer to TAS and TAB in standard system to create third party order and individual purchase order.
    You could also refer to the online documentation at

  • Third party sales processing issue

    Hi,
    I have a batche managed materail which i am processing for the first time with Third party sales.
    I have created deklivery for the material . but when i am creating the Billing docuemnt , system is asking for Goods issue.
    As there is no stock in system, how this should be processed?

    Hi
    Delivery is not a part of third party process. Please go through the third party process again and configure.

  • Third party sales processing

    hello sap gurus
    i have a doubt regards third party sales
    while creating standard sales order i have different 3line items on that one is not available for that i did third party for 1 line item
    item category is TAS in one sales order. if i dolike this system will give purchase req no. i want to create one invoice for standard and third party order is it posible or not if it is posible please explain detailed.
    thanks for advance

    Hello,
    Whether your reuirement is possible in SAP is a second question.
    First question is that whether this is practically possible? Because out of three line items, two will be delivered by your Company & one (third party item) will be delivered by Vendor.
    Now the actual Delivery date & time to Customer of 2 items sent by you & Third party item item sent by Vendor may happen on different dates, thus creating Invoice for all these Items togather may not be a good idea.
    Also Vendor too may not have the entire stock & send the goods to customer partially or on different dates.
    Also in future you may like to have a seperate report of third party Invoices for profitability & other analysis. This will also be difficult if you have single Invoice for all Items.
    Now coming to your requirement, it may be possible if you Item Category - Billing Relevance for TAN is A & for TAS is F or G.
    Now in VF01, enter Delivery Numbers for two items sent by you & also enter the Sales Order Number & go to selection list & select the Third party Item. With this you will be able to create single Invoice for all the Items.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

    p-101 10

    step-2
    Purchase requisition created and from vendor delivery happened

    now the issue is for p-100 and p-101 it showing being process and p-101 it showing status as completed
    please suggest m

    Dear Amar,
    please see the billing document which you have cancelled and see the status of the item as well as you are saying,
    that two items are cancelled, so i believe it is the sap functionality that it is showing the uncancelled item as complete.
    also if the user has cancelled the whole document
    kindly check all the documents again and then tell me
    revert if helpful

  • Third Party Sales Returns process

    Hello All
    We have a third-party sales process which is automated i.e Sales order and Purchase requisitions(VA01) are created using the data coming in the incoming EDI file, the Purchase requisition is automatically converted to a Purchase order, the Invoice Reciept(MIRO) is posted and the Sales Invoice (VF01) is posted.
    The question is how do we handle the Returns or the Credit process?
    Is there a way I can configure the system to create a Returns order which will also update the Pur.Req quantity then the Purchase order quantity  or directly the Purchase order quantity. I can then use this information to raise a credit to the Vendor Invoice.
    I don't want to just raise a credit memo and update the sales side and leave the purchase side open.
    I appreciate your reply.
    Best Regards
    Rama

    Third Party Return Process
    Please check this extract from the sap library :
    If the vendor grants you a credit memo on a quantity or a value basis, you can then send this credit memo directly to your customer.
    The billing type Third-party credit memo (G2S) is available for this. The billing type Third-party credit memo works with the item category TASG (third-party credit memo item). The Billing-relevance indicator F is set in Customizing for Sales for this item category. This means that the cost is not created. In Customizing for Sales, the item category TASG is set at item level in copying control for the billing type G2S (copying control sales document by billing document) as the target item category (source: TAS-> Target:> TASG.)
    Process Flow
    Create a billing documente with billing type Third-party credit memo (for further information, see the section Creating a billing document in the Billing document). Enter the third-party order as a document still to be processed. The quantities are automatically removed from the invoice.
    The above is the process for giving a credit memo which can be adapted for return goods.

    Rajesh Banka

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

    Hi guru's

    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,

  • Third party sale scenario: COGS not allowed as automatically posted.

    Dear Gurus,
    I have come across this error during execution of third party sale scenario.
    When the user enters a PO with reference to PR which is in reference to SO, one error pops up which says COGS cannot be automatically posted only.
    When I deselect the "Post automatically" tick, the PO can be saved.
    Process we are following during third party sale process:-

    5. Sales Invoice: Customer Dr. To Sales Cr.
    6. MIRO: GR/IR Clearing account Dr. To Vendor Cr.
    I have my own doubts on the statistical GR part. Can you pls. validate the same.

  • Payment Terms in Third Party Sales Invoice.

    Hi Experts,
    We are facing the problem in third party sales process.
    Suppose X is our customer and Y is our vendor, here Y is supplying the material directly to X and Y sending us the bill of entry and other documents to us, and then we create the sales invoices to X, we are following all process like first we create SO to X then with the PR we create PO to Y then we do migo and miro of vendor invoices then creating the sales invoice to X.
    The main problem is that we want that the payment due date to our customer invoice starts from the vendor bill of lading date which we enter at the time of migo and miro (document date), but in our system, in sales invoice to X, system is calculating payment terms which we have entered in the customer master of X.
    How to get above functionality activated in sap.

  • Third Party Sales - Automatic Purchase Order Creation- via  SO event

    Dear SAP Gurus,
    We have a requirement to have automatic PO Creation for Third Party Sales Process.
    To achieve it what I have done is
    a) I have created an event linking using transaction SWETYPV:
    Object = BUS2032, Event = ALECREATED and ALECHANGED ,
    Funtion module  = PUR_ORDER_CREATE_VIA_SD_EVENT.
    Also I have modified the Sales Organization data to pass Purchasing Organization,  Purchase Order type and Purchasing group . Its working fine . Its creating purchase order automatically.
    My question here is , I'm I doing the wright method for automatic PO creation as soon as a sales order is created.
    I beleive this will call for PO creation for all Sales order not only restricted to third party sales . Will it affect performance of the system or will it ignore since there is no purchase requisition.
    Please advise on the pros and cons of this process

    We use a fairly standard Third Party process. We use the Item Category to drive the Schedule Line Category, which is flagged as Third-Party. On the Material Master (Purchasing view), the Material is flagged for Automatic PO, same on the Vendor Master. Workflow automatically kicks in on SO save to trigger the creation of the PO for the Purchase Req.
    Unfortunately, Workflow is a bit of a dark art to me, so I couldn't tell you what we have in place. My feeling is that it is bog standard though.
    Cheers, Paul.

    An Example Of Third Party Sales
    Scenario:
    2 companies are created in system - India & Singapore Customer places sales order for particular material on Singapore.  Singapore is not able to produce the same. They pass on the order to India for processing.  After processing India ships the material directly to the customer along with necessary documentation.  Invoice copy is passed on to Singapore.  Final Commercial Invoice will be raised by Singapore.  How can the above scenario handled? 
    By: Balaji
    You can do this using third party sales.
    The third party sales process is as under.
    1) Singapore company creates an order for the singapore customer.
    2) Because of the configuration settings of the sales document type, item category & schedule line category, as soon as the order is saved a PR (purchase requisition) is automatically generated. This is converted into PO (purchase order) and sent to the Indian company.
    3) Indian company supplies the material directly to the Singapore customer.
    4) Indian company sends the invoice to the Singapore Company.
    5) Singapore company does the invoice verification in MM using tcode MIRO.
    6) Singapore company raises the invoice to the singapore customer.
    In standard SAP, item category TAS is used for this. The schedule line category is CS. Here you can see a field 'order type' with value 'NB'. This triggers the automatic creation of the PR.
    Plus in the material master also you need to do certain settings.
    1) If you are always following a third party process for a material then you have to create the material using item category group BANS. The procurement type should be marked as external procurement (F) in MRP 2 view of the material master record.
    2) If you are not always allowing third party order processing then you can create a material master record with item category group as NORM and the procurement type should be marked as (X) meaning both types of procurement (in house manufacturing and external procurement).
    In the item category the billing relevance should be 'F'.
    Third party order processing is as follows:
    Assume three companies X, Y and Z
    X - The company,
    y - The customer
    Z - Vendor
    When ever X gets a PO from Y to supply some goods, X has an option of either manufacturing those goods or procuring those goods.
    If he is procuring the goods, there are two methods that are generally followed:
    Method 1)
    After receiving the PO from Y, X creates a sales order against Y.
    Now at the same time he also creates a PO to a vendor Z to produce the goods
    Z produces the goods and supplies to X
    X receives the goods from Z
    Then X delivers the same goods to Y.
    After that X invoices Y and Z invoices X.
    Note : Here there is no direct/ Indirect relation between Z and Y.
    This process is known as Trading Process. and the Material here is created with Material type HAWA.
    The other method is a Third party order processing method:
    Here the glaring difference is that instead of Z supplying the material to X and X in turn supplying the same material to Y.
    X authorizes Z to supply the material to Y on his behalf and notify him once the delivery is complete.
    Now Z supplies the material to Y and acknowledges the same to X.
    Z will send a copy of delivery acknowledgement and invoice to X.
    After receiving the delivery confirmation and invoice from Z, X has to verify the invoice and this process is known as invoice verification and is done in SAP through Tcode MIRO.
    The next step for X is to create an invoice and submit to Y
    Only after the invoice verification document is posted then only X can create an invoice for Y.
    This is the business flow that is followed for third party order configuration.
    There are few steps that have to be configured to enable the system to function as mentioned above.
    Step1)
    If you are always followwing a third party process for a material then you have to create the material using item category group BANS.
    The procument type should be marked as External procurement (F) in MRP 2 view of the material master record.
    if you are not always allowing third party order processing then u can create a material master record with item category group as NORM and the procurement type should be marked as ( X) meaning both types of procurment ( in house manufacturing and external procurement).
    step 2)
    the item category in the order should be manually changed as TAS.
    For that you need to confugure the item category determination
    ord type + item cat grp + usge + Hiv level = Item cat + Manual item cat
    OR + NORM + + = TAN . + TAS
    OR + BANS + + = TAS
    Step 3)
    make sure that during the item category configuration for TAS you need to mark relevnat for billing indicator as F
    step 4)
    The schedule line cateogry for this type should be CS.
    make sure that you mark subsequent type as NB - purchase requisition in this schedule line category as this will trigger the purchase requision order immediately after the creation of the sales order and the PO to vendor is created against this purchase requiesion.
