Valuation for Service Sector
hi Experts,
Pls explain What is Valuation? and how for service sector?
I will illustrate it with an example as below:
Scenario: Company ABC having Business operation in India and Singapore. Hence the Orgainsation Structure for SD will be as follows:
Company Code:
0001 - ABC Singapore
0002 - ABC India
Sales Organization:
0001 - ABC Singapore
0002 - ABC India
Distribution Channel:
01 - Domestic
02 - Export
03 - Intercompany
Division:
10 - Consulting
Possible Sales Area (Sales Organization / Distribution Channel / Division):
0001 / 01 / 10
0001 / 02 / 10
0001 / 03 / 10
0002 / 01 / 10
0002 / 02 / 10
0002 / 03 / 10
Plants and shipping points requires to be configured as per requirement.
Try to keep the Organization Structure simple, which will further facilite master data maintainance.
Hope the above is helpful.

Rajesh Banka

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 MHi 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

Different GR/IR account for service entry and GRN for non-valuated material
Hi,
Our requirement is GR/IR account while doing service entry and GR/IR account while doing GRN for non-valuated material (UNBW) should be different.
Though we maintain valuation class for material group (Transaction OMQW), system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting. The system is ignoring the respective valuation class G/L account. Also if we maintain valuation class for service masters, then also while doing service entry sheet system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting
Had i missed out any other setting. Pls help.
RegardsHi,
In OBYC, please maintain a GL for valuation class 3200 for services and a GL for val class 3300 for Non-valuated material in WRX.

Enter Invoice before Service Entry for Service POs?
Hi,
I have a question that I am hoping someone can answer.
As per standard process, in order to enter an invoice for a service PO, the service entry should be posted and accepted. This is the standard service procurement process, i.e. a 3 way match process for service POs (PO - Service Entry - Invoice).
We have a request to be able to enter an invoice for a service PO (that will go on block) before entering the service entry sheet; once the service entry sheet is entered and accepted, the invoice should be unblocked and paid.
Currently, based on our testing in ECC 5.00, the system does NOT allow the user to enter an invoice for a service PO unless:
1. the service entry has been posted and accepted in the system (when using GR-IV checked, GR checked); or
2. the service PO is created such that the GR is non-valuated (where GR-IV is unchecked):
a. GR-IV unchecked
b. SR-IV unchecked
c. GR checked
d. GR non-valuated checked
In option 2 above, since it is GR non-valuated, as soon as the invoice is posted, the consumption account is hit, and offset by the vendor account (the GR/IR account is not impacted in this scenario). When the service entry is created and accepted, no accounting postings are made as it is GR non-valuated. Therefore, it looks very similar to a 2 way match process.
We also read in SAP Note 1166693 that says an invoice cannot be entered before service entry unless you activate Enterprise Public Sector, however, this conflicts with option 2 mentioned above.
Has anyone come across a similar requirement, implemented Public sector, option 2 above, or have any other solutions? Does anyone see any negative impacts with implementing option 2 above?
Cheers,Hi,
I think you can use this functionality using LIV tolarance key DW ,please explore Spro>MM>LIV>Invoice block>set tolerence limits
By creating PO IV based you can block invoice till GR is posted, check it
Thanks

Purchasing - A/P Transaction Processing for Services and Non Inventory Item
On of the main areas of concern that businesses have is in the area of Purchasing, Goods Receipts and AP Invoices Processing - There is a requirement that businesses have widely referred to as 3-way matching.
While SAP Business One has this functionality covered quiet well via the following, there is still some need for enhancements so that the application can correctly reflect the AP Accruals:
- Purchase Order processing with Approval Process (if configured)
- Ability to perform Goods Receipts for Services.
- Matching of AP Invoices to Goods Receipts with AP Invoice Approval Process (if configured)
The above transactions serve the 3-way matching quiet well for all purchases however when it comes to accuring for Services that have been provided, the application does not do this. The Goods Receipt transaction processing to acknowledge the service delivery is allowed however the related posting to the allocation account is missing.
The process that is followed by the application is same for Items that have not Inventory Items in Item Master.
As a result of the above, the business have to manually work out what the Accurals for services provided but not invoiced should be.
With little enhancement to the product this shortfall could very easily be overcome.Hi,
Once there are transactions, we cannot make existing Inventory type item to Non Inventory type item.
Check SAP note:937297 which states as follows :
Symptom
Changing the status of the Inventory Item checkbox (in Item Master Data) for items with inventory transactions and documents, might lead to inaccuracies in the calculations of inventory value.
Other terms
Inventory Item, Non-inventory Item, Item Master Data, Continuous Stock, Perpetual Inventory, Inventory Valuation, 2004, 2005, 2005 A SP01
Reason and Prerequisites
Consulting Note
Solution
The status of an item (Inventory Item/Non-Inventory item as selected in the Inventory Item checkbox in the Item Master Data window), cannot be changed once an A/P, A/R, or Inventory document is posted for the item.

GR/IR clearing acc for services
Dear Experts,
i need to assign seperate G/L account for GR/IR clearing account(WRX) for services how can i do this.
Regards
prakashThe valuation class from the service master is not used for the GR/IR clearing account determination (Transaction WRX) when posting the external services management. Instead, valuation class ' ' is assumed.Thus, the same account is found as if you make a posting for a purchase order with material number 0.
userexit EXIT_SAPLKONT_011 is available which you can use to set the account grouping code for transaction/event WRX in relation to the characteristics of the purchase order. Thus the determination of the GR/IR account can be controlled separately for material andservice orders via the user exit. -

Not able to perform j1iex for service tax capturing
The service PO is similar to that of any other PO in terms of taxing.
In service tax we will have
Service tax - 12 %
Education cess - 2 %
Surcharge - 1%
So for service tax code we will be maintaining three rates in the Tax code.
Follow the below process for Service Cycle :-
1. AC01 - Create Service master in AC01 and assign the Valuation Class for the Service Masters and do Account
Determination in OBYC for A/c Key GBB and Valuation Modifier VBR (to this Assign the Service Expense A/c) and
for A/c Key WRX, assign GR/IR Clearing A/c
2. ME21N - In PO (ME21N), use Item category as "D" (Services) along with Account Assignment Category "K" (Cost Center)
and In "Services" tab, specify the Service Master and pricing details
3. ML81N - Create Service Entry Sheet w.r.t. Service PO
Service Expense A/c - Dr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr
4. MIRO - LIV for Service Entry Sheet or Service PO
Service Vendor A/c - Cr
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Dr
Service Tax A/c - Dr
Ed Cess on Service tax - Dr
Sec Ed Cess on Service tax - Dr
In normal purchase order having excise duty we would perform a t.code j1iex once for capturing excise and again for posting excise duty.
we want same step between step 3 and step 4 for service tax also. can anyone tell us how to achive that.Hi
We dont have the provision to maintain registers for service tax.
so there is no question of capturing service tax thro J1IEX.
Service tax is posted to a G/L account at the time of MIRO.
We will utilize this service tax input credit at the time of monthly utilization (J2IUN) where in there is option for giving this G/L account.
then the amounts of input service tax will be populated in the screen.

Automatic GL account pick for service PO
When I raise PO with account assignment u2018 Ku2019 it ask cost center and pick the GL account automatically from OBYC table. But when I raise PO for service with item category u2018 D u2019 and account assignment u2018 k u2018 it picks different GL account. I think that GL account pick which is assigned for service material group. Any one can tell me how and where from that GL account pick. Anywhere else GL account is assigned for service material group?
Hi,
In the SPRO you have groups defined and for these service group you assign the valuation class.
Path - SPRO - MM - Purchasing - Material Master - Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master
Then in OBYC against these valuation class you assign the GL accounts.
Thanks & Regards,

PR Price Adopted to PO for service item
We are using idocs which uses BAPI_PO_CREATE1 to load the legacy PO's into ECC. Even though we supply the PO Price which is different than the PR Price for service item, the price is still adopted from PR which we don't want. I checked ML91 and there is a flag which is "Ignore Requisition Price in PO", but for online process, PR price must be adopted to PO for service item. Any Ideas if something can be done with configuration or any enhancements I have to look at.
Hi,
As you needed, use t.code OMET & define functional authorization, choose u201CAdopt PO Priceu201D and u201CRef. to Purchase Requisition" & save. Now in t.code SU01 assign your user ID with parameter ID EFB.& save. Now create PR & then create PO wrt PR, see the valuation price of PR will be taken to PO automatically.

POs for service and account assignment
Hi,
I'm crearting a purchase order for services with item category P and account category K.
Actually the system doesn't assign automatically the G/L account in the field Account assignment of POs.
I set in T030, in transaction GBB, valuation modification 0001, general modification ZCO, valuation class (S001) and the G/L account.
Best regardsHi,
While creating the PO, enter the material group and assign the valuation class to this material group in the folowing node, (Material Management --> Purchasing -->Material Master --> Entry aid for items without material master).
Once you assign the valuation class to material group, it will pick the G/L code from GBB in the OBYC setting (Table T030).
Hope it answers your problem.

Urgent.... Multiple OBYC settings for Service WRX
Dear Experts,
My client wants to have two separate GR/IR accounts for service procurement. one general a/c and another for transportation. But in OBYC setting we can only give the a single default G/L for service. We can differentiate by valuation class in case of material but no such thing is available for service.. So how to differentiate that. Please help me plz plz.
Thnx in advance,
SankhaHi,
If you will create Service master in AC01 then you can assign valuation class there also.
And then do account determination for WRX in OBYC as per the valuation class as you do for maerials -
Manual for service entry sheet and service master
hello all,
if someone is having manual available for service entry sheet and service master....
regards,
Rahul Bhardwaj.You have to configure service category in SPRO for service master and you can assign the number range in SPRO
The path is SPRO is:
Materials Management-External Services ManagementService Master---Define Service Category
Service Master is created using AC03
The service master record counts as part of the master data within External Services Management and serves as a source of data for you to draw upon when creating service specifications. This enables you to save time and reduces the frequency of errors, since you need only enter the complete service descriptions in the service master record once.
A service master record contains the following principal information for the unique description of a service:
Service number
Service category
Descriptive texts (short and long text)
Base unit of measure
Material group
Valuation class by which G/l account is determined
when you reference it in the PO, all the data gets transfered and you avoids the mistakes -
Dear SAPians,
I have a scenario from the client, they want to default the GL account for services while creating the PR. I have assigned a GL to val class 3200 in GBB VBR. I have also assigned GL to the service group in transaction OMQW.
Am i missing something?
Let me knw.
Thanks.

The answer is Yes, as its coming by default on my system. Read the last message in the link, instead of material master you can input it in service master.
I've managed to solve the problem.
I've created a new valution class and assigned the GL Account to the valution class. Thereafter, I assigned the valuation class to the material group and set the valuation class in each of the material code in material master.
Now the GL Account will be defaulted during PR creation.
