Usage based contract

Hi all,
can any one tel me the best practise for usage based contract
and demo, how to create it like web blog.
Please help me on this.
Thanks,
Priya

Hi Pete,
Thanks for you input.
We are recrding the daily readings in Measuring points of the Equipment. At the end of the month, I could get the Total value of each Components.
My idea is to
1. Create a Sales order w.r.t to the Contract --> copy all the line item with rate per unit or hour
2. User has to enter (manually) quantity of each parameter
3.System will calculate the amount for each parameter ( Qty X Rate per unit / hour)
(Rate (condition value) of 3rd parameter (Stoppage die to supplier) is negative (-200))
Is it right the right way of approaching this requirement? Is there any other possibilities available in SAP?
Thanks,
Babu.K

Capturing Counter Readings for Usage Based Contracts

Hi,
I need clarification regarding capturing the Counter Readings for Usage Based Contracts. Which is it better to capture Counter Readings..in Service Contracts module or in Install Base ?.
I am new to Usage Based Contracts and need to understand this.
Gurus, Appreciate your quick responses.
Thanks,
Sid

Hi All,
Has anyone used the API's for capturing the counter readings.
As far as I know, we need to use the public APIs of CS_CTR_CAPTURE_READING_PUB in the following sequence:
CS_CTR_CAPTURE_READING_PUB.PRE_CAPTURE_COUNTER_READING--retrieve the counter_group_log_id and pass it to the next api
CS_CTR_CAPTURE_READING_PUB.CAPTURE_COUNTER_READING and then call the API
CS_CTR_CAPTURE_READING_PUB.POST_CAPTURE_COUNTER_READING.
Has anyone used the API CS_CTR_CAPTURE_READING_PUB.PRE_CAPTURE_COUNTER_READING?
I want to know what values are passed into the record type CTR_GRP_LOG_Rec_Type.
Can anyone tell me what has to be passed, please?
Thanks!

Billing value should not exceed contract(value based contract) value

Hi,
We are using value based contract and in item category we set E in incompletion rule which stops me to create relaease order where its value exceeds the contract value.
But via release order we recognize revenue(service based revenue recognition) and we do billing directly through contract via milestone billing plan,
At present i can bill more then my contract value.Now i want to system should not allow me to bill mre then contract value.
I checked the option in VOV8 and VOV7 but all those are meant for release order not for bliing.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Satya
You can set the billing amount in milestone billing plan itself. based on that value billing will done.

Usage Based Optimization Wizard not finding Queries for Selected Measure Group (2008)

I have configured my analysis services server to capture queries in an OLAP Query Log table. The connection string points to a table on a SQL Server relational database. I have verified that the dbo.OlapQueryLog table was created. I have set it to
capture every 5th query. The table has been collecting query statistics for several hours. I opened my model in BIDS, clicked on the cube and opened the Aggregations tab. I click on the measure group partition and select the Usage Based Optimization
button. The wizard opens up and I click next. In the "Specify Query Criteria" dialog, there is a warning that there "are no queries in the log for the selected measure group". The problem is that there are queries but the UBO
Wizard doesn't seem to be finding them. Do I need to set a property in the BIDS to point to the location of the query log file in the relational database?

Hi David,
Is your SSAS database name and ID are same? We came across same kind of issue while ago. We initially created our database with one name and later renamed the database.
The database name and ID should be same in order to perform Usage Based Optimization.
To do so,
On the solution explorer the top node is the database.
Right click on that node and click edit database. In the property windown you should be able to see ID. The ID and the name of the database should be the same.
If both are not same, Change the database name to match ID.
Please mark as Answer if this helps!

Hello
Pls check the below:
1. Before RESRSE, the respective sales figures should be available in the Contract or if no sales available Tick Zero Sales upto the period for which the sales settlement you would like to do.
2. In RESRSE, in addition to default fields like Co Code, Contract No, etc select Settlement Method Simulate, Settlement Type as Standard, Settlement schema as Using Actual AP, Settlement step as 05 Simulation of Posting Costs.
3. In Selection of Sales Rule tab, give Settle Upto Date.
4. In Parameters tab, give Text, Posting & Doc Date, Posting Period, Baseline Date as per the requirement.

Service entry sheet pick price from Scales based contract

Dear SAP Team,
We are doing the service entry sheet using Transaction Ml81N & facing the pricing issue.
Before doing the service entry sheet a SAP contact which has prices based on the scales as distance is created .We pay the vendor based on the depth where the drilling operation are performed.
Purchase order is created using as limit order as at the time of PO the exact depth & time consumed for the service is not clear.
While creating a Service entry sheet against the PO, when I click on the pushbutton u2018Service selectionu2019 the system prompts me to choose the Service from different sources.
I select the option of service to be selected from the purchasing document (which is my contract number with scale pricing).
After this step, I could see my contract service as below but I do not have the option to select the scale prices based on the depth where the services are performed.
I do not know when SAP has provided the scale pricing in contract & it allows you to select the contract during the service entry sheet then but it does not allow you to select the prices maintained in the contract for the scales. I would highly appreciate any solution provided on it or any other alternative possible.

Hi,
You have two options, just check for to carry out....
OPTION--1:
You can create three service master/activity number namely Pumping depth 0-500 M , Pumping depth 501 -1000 M & Pumping depth 1001-Above and keep base unit of measure for service master/activity number is Hour.
Now create value or quantity contract as per your requirement with three service master/activity number & you can maintain
the cost per unit as Pumping depth 0-500 M is 400$/ Hr , Pumping depth 501 -1000 M is 500$/ Hr, Pumping depth 1001-Above is 600$/ Hr
Then you can create Release Order/Purchase Order WRT contract.
Now during SES creation in ML81N, you can select which activity number performed and accordingly the cost and service number copied to SES & you can save SES and release SES.
OPTION--2:
You can have source list(ME01) & Info record (ME11). In the info record , you can maintain all scales as your requirement
and then create contract & then release order and finally SES.

Best Practice unit of measurement usage in CONTRACT.

Hello All
I have a situation below
MATERIAL 1234 have two UOM Respectively Ordering unit as CAR and basic Uom as EA .
1 car = 10 EA
1 . I create a contract for
item 01 material 1234 with 100 USD CAR .
2. later vendor told us that they can not supply via CAR , they can supply via only EA DUE to their BUSINESS reasons.
3. should i change the item 01 material 10 USD EA ? OR should i lock 01 ITEM 1234 with 100 USD CAR? and add a new item below?
4. 02 ITEM 1234 10 USD EA.
Which one is allowed as per SAP standard.
APPRECIATE YOUR HELP.
Thanks
Muthu

system will create a contract with default Base Unit of Measure maintained in material master data.
The system will automatically do the conversion of CAR <--> EA as per what is maintained in the material master.
Thus, if your base unit of measure in material master is set as CAR, then you can create a contract for 1 Car to order 10 EA and vice versa.
it will be better to add a new line item for UOM as EA
Hope this helps you. let me know if this answers your query.
Regards,
Nikz

Comparing the BOM usage with the actual usage for materials.

Hi All
My client want to compare the BOM usage with the actual usage and have a report for this within a period? More specified they want to calculate the BOM usage, based on the requirement quantity from confirmation - but with out the scrap %. mulitplied with the confimed quantity of the header material.
The actual usage should be based on goods issuing from stock, either as goods issue to order (backflushing) or as goods issue to cost center.
I havent been able to indentiy a standard report for doing this - does some of you know a standard report?
- I was thinking of the following method:
Look at tabel RESB and compare it with MSEG, but I have some diferent problems with this.
- In resb there is no qty before scrap.
- The data amount from MSEG, is so huge so it is not possible to make a data search for a whole period (eg. month)
Br. M

There is one std report MCRX which gives a comparison of quanity in order and actual consumption,
if it doesnt meet your need, you may have to create a custom report.
logic can be find the quantites as per BOM for the produced quantities
issued quantities to the order
tables you may need are AUFK AUFM
AFKO, STAS STPO
MSEG, MKPO
JEST ( if you want to filter using order status)

Best practice followed on CONTRACT

Hello All
What are the best practice needs to be followed on changing the material data information ,
Step 1. created a contract for Material and PO released agains contract. later some times.
Step 2:- material master changes some important piece of data like order Unit/ Deletion or material group changes on MATERIAL.
step 3:- We do the same for the materials in the contract and deactivate the w.r.t line and create a new line item so that my new line item picks up from material master.
What are the other incidents material master team may do on material master so that i can inform the contract team to do the same.
What are the actions material master team may do on MATERIAL and which is relavant for contract data.so that i can alert CONTRACT and MATERIAL master team. so that communication will be seemless.so that every thing perfect and sync.
