Value Contract- Order- Invoice

Hi
I have Created Value Contrace of Service material.
I am Creating SO with ref. to Value Contract.
Since material is Service material it doesnot have "loading Group" in material Master, so it Neither determine Shipping point in Sales Order nor allows me to enter manually.so SO is incomplete & doesnot allow to Process.
There is no Delivery involved.Is Plant & Shipping Condition necessary in Processing SO-> Invoice?

Hi,
This problem is due to the Incompletion procedure assigned to your Sales order type.
At Incompleteness procedure, we add only mandatory or minimum fields (data), that user has to fill in the sales order without which system should not allow to save the sales order.
As this incompleteness procedure must be assigned keeping the business requirement for finished products.
Hence, you will need to copy the existing Sales order Type and create a new or Z/Y sales order Type for Service Materials.
For newly created Sales Order assign new "Incompl.proced" and don't include the fields used for Finished Products.
IMG->Sales-> Basic Functions->Log of Incomplete Items.
at VOV8-> sales order type-> you will need to assign this incompleteness procedure
Thank You.

Single Invoice (Normal & Value Contract)????

Hi,
As we are creating the invoice with two different ways e.g. normal and with reference to value contract. Generally, the discount on invoice with reference to value contract is applied higher than the normal invoice. So is it any way to do both invoice of same customer at same time in one process to save time.
means Can we get the one single invoice Normal and through Value Contract? if anybody knows please share T code with me along with process.

Release Order for Value Contract WK1

i dont want to create sales order with referance to contract.
i have done below.
1. i created assortment module in wsv2 tcode for value contract
2. i created value conract (type WK1) in va41 tcode
3. i created (messages about outline agreement) "check at item level and copy if unique" sales doc type OR in tcode vov8
so, when i created a sales order (OR) without referance to value contract, i want the sales order to find the related contract at item level and copy
but sales order cant find the material in the assortment module that i created in contract type wk1.
where am i doing wrong?

Hi,
Firstly, I assume you have properly setup all the copy control of of the document types you want to use and also properly defined the document types and item categories you want to use.
Maybe you want to check/try the following: -
1. Check the validity of the assortment module you have created.
2. Try to create the assortment module again using tcode WSO1.
3. In your Order Type "WK1" and under the "Contract", maybe include the subsequent Order = OR
4. Check that your material has the product hierarchy properly setup?
5. Finally, try to use indicator "B: check at item level" instead of "D: check at item level and copy if unique". You would not get a dialog box in OR if you use indicator D as it will automatically copy to the OR if there is exactly one reference document created.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Release orders for value contract

Hi Folks,
I have question on value contract.
Customer contract is fullfilled by issuing orders against the contract. When a release order is created for the contract, the system automatically updates the released values in the contract. The release order value is calculated from the total of the open order and delivery values, plus the value that has already been billed to the value contract. System checks this value with "Outline agreement target value" in value contract and issues warning or error message depends on configuration settings in value contract item catagory.
We have business scenario where system has to check net value of value contract rather than checking "Outline agrrement target value" in value contract. Because we offer some discounts to customer in value contract thus net value of the contract differs from agreement value. So that system will issue error message when release order value exceeds net value of value contract.
Is there any customizing settings available to meet the requirement?
Awaiting for your inputs.
Regards,
Prabhaharan

Hi,
In transcation VTAA at item level have your own cory requirment code which will calcullate net value of the doc, hope this works out

Sale order 'value changes' after invoice creation

Experts,
A sale order was created / shipped / invoiced. The invoice did not go to accounting because of credit auth error. We have a procedure to fix it and then release it to accounting (transaction VFX3). All OK until this point.
While fixing the auth error, an user changed the freight condition value in the sale order. Then invoice is released to accounting. Now, the value of freight in order and invoice match. How is it possible to change the value of an invoice after its creation?
Any input would be appreciated.
UV

when the value is changed in the sale order, it would automatically transfer
the new pricing to the existing open SD invoice pending accounting entry??
Certainly not. The control is in VTFL where if you select the billing item category for the combination of your delivery type and billing type, you can see a field "Pricing Type". If you maintain any value other than "B", system will copy the price from sale order to billing and you can, as I said above, can change manually in billing. On the other hand, if you have maintained "B" in the above field, system will not consider sale order price but will check your pricing condition maintained in VK11 which you can check in VK12 or VK13.
thanks

How to find Value contract details used as reference in order

Hi SAP team,
We are creating a order with reference to a Value contract line item. After saving the order, from the document flow we can see the value contract number and line item it is referred. But before saving the order, is there any way to see value contract and line item number it is refered to.
Regards,
Madhuri.

Hi Madhuri
Its not possible to see the preceding document when u raise a order with reference to Contract.
After saving the order only u can see the preceeding document in number in Document Flow.
When u r in create mode of sales order u cannot see the document Flow button .. Only after saving the order only v can see the document flow..
Because at the time creation the system gathers information only. after saving only it will confirm the number of preceeding document.
I tried in my system ..

Assortment Module for Value Contracts
This function enables you to define a list of materials that can be released from a value contract. Materials can be assigned to more than one assortment module.
An assortment module is an entry tool and can be called up from the value contract. It is valid for a certain time period.
If you delete a material from the assortment module, to which a value contract refers, you will be unable to release that material.
In the value contract, only materials with the same sales organization and distribution channel as the value contract can be taken from the assortment module. All the other materials in the assortment module are not displayed in the value contract.
To fulfill both these requirements, two types of value contracts are offered in the standard system:
Value contract type WK 1
You can specify a product hierarchy or a assortment module for value contracts with contract type WK 1. The system will always propose this type of contract, if you want to create a contract for several materials or a certain group of materials. All the materials in the relevant assortment, or belonging to the specified product hierarchy are then relevant for release.
Value contract type WK 2 (material-related)
You can create contracts for one material (usually configurable) with this type of value contract. A software company is an example of where this kind of contract is often used. There, a contract for the value of $500,000 is made with the customer for one specific software product.
You can also agree on the length of the contract for this type. The contract duration can be agreed at item level and can be different from the contract duration specified at header level.
You can store special price agreements for the value contract. These price agreements can then be used at any level. For example, a value contract can contain prices for individual materials, or discounts that are valid for every released material.
Release Orders
The customer fulfills a contract by issuing orders against the contract. The contract does not contain any exact dates for deliveries, so you need to create a sales order to release against a value contract.
When a release order is created for the contract, the system automatically updates the released values in the contract. The release order value is calculated from the total of the open order and delivery values, plus the value that has already been billed to the value contract.
The system also updates the released value for subsequent changes (for example, overdelivery of contract release, price changes in the billing document, partial deliveries, returns, rejection of order items, cancellation or reversal of orders, deliveries or billing documents).
You can create a release order in any currency. The system automatically converts this currency into the one agreed upon in the value contract on the pricing date for the contract release order.
Creating Assortment Modules for Value Contracts
Procedure
To create an assortment module, proceed as follows:
1. From the initial screen choose Logistics >Sales and Distribution >Master data.
2.Choose Products >Value contract - Assortment module > Create.
You will then be in the Create assortment module: Initial Screen.
Module type 6 is defined for the value contract.
3. For external number assignment, enter a module number.
You can then use existing modules as a reference by entering the name of the module under reference.
4. Choose Enter.
5. Enter a short description for the module.
6. Enter a validity period for the product proposal.
During a release, the system checks if the release date lies within the validity period.
7. Create the materials that you wish to assign as items to a module.
You can display a list of materials as a product proposal, which you can then copy into the assortment module. To do this, choose Suggest material, enter the selection criteria in the subsequent screen and copy the selected materials to the items. Use Edit > Delete item to delete the materials that you do not want to copy to the assortment module.
8.Save your entries.
Also Please check the copy control in VTAA

Text is not copying into Header Text Type from Contract to Order & Invoice

Salute Masters!!
I have done related configuration in VOTXN for Sales Document & Billing.
After creation of Contract, given Text in New Header Text Type, itu2019s not copying into Sales Order or Invoice.
Although, which was configured earlier one, for that Header Text Type, text is copying into Order & Invoice both properly.
Firstly; I have given the same Access Sequence for the New Header Text Type, It was copying the same matter which was given into Old Header Text Type, then I have created new Access Sequence & assigned changed Access Sequence for the New Header Text Type, even then it is not copying.
I have checked other Configuration those are OK!
Assignment of Sales Document Type to Text Determination Procedure, it is OK!
Please provide the solution.
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,
Sanjai Srivastav

Hi
Hope the issue is resolved , if not please check these settings - VOTXN
1. Create Text Type for your Sales order -S001 and Billing Invoice - B001
2. Create Access Sequence - Z001.
3. Include your Both Text Type in respective Procedures.
Now
WHen you will assign the Text into your Text Procedure - Assign same Access Sequence in both the case.
In your Sales Order text procedure - Assign
1. Assign Text Type S001 and Access Seq Z001
2. Select the Access Seq on the left side in the VOTXN T-Code , a POP up will come and then input Your Access Seq into that
3. You will get another screen, Here give the Seq No-1 and VBBK Header Text and Again Assign TEXT type S001.
Now go to Invoice Text Procedure
1. Assign Text Type B001 and Access Seq Z001 and SAVE.
Once you will do that the step 2 and 3 will automatically get copy in the backend.
To Check
2. Select Access Seq on left side and in the Pop Up input access Seq. Now there you will see the system has copied the
fields from the Order.
Now try running the scenario. same you can do for Contract and Order.
Hopefully this will Help you.
please let me know if any concerns
Thanks

DP90 from service order, and value contract (Resource related billling - DIP Profile)

Hi all, I've this issue:
I have created a value contract with an only position, dummy service material (DIEN) via VA41. Then, I've created a service orden with IW31, related it with sales document (position 10 of mentioned value contract). I've did confirmations for several opertations from the order (an operation --> an activity type). In a zeta DIP profile I've link activity tipes with anothers DIEN material. This DIP profile is in orden.
I can create sales order with DP90, everything ok! But... value released has not been actualized in value contract...
I found this note, number 1176009, "Value contract FAQs", and say it:
Question: Does the value contract scenario support documents that were
created using resource-related billing (for example, DP90, DP91, DP..)?
Answer: No, this function is not supported in the standard system and
results in update terminations in the statistic.
Which is the solution?
Thanks on advance.

Well, I think I find the solution. I did it with BADI BADI_SD_V46H0001, method EXIT_SAPLV46H_001, and this code:
METHOD if_ex_badi_sd_v46h0001~exit_saplv46h_001.
c_vbapkom-wktnr = c_vbapkom-vgbel.
c_vbapkom-wktps = c_vbapkom-vgpos.
ENDMETHOD.
I'm testing, but it's working.

Linking Consignment Settlement (MRKO) with Value Contract

Hi Guys,
We are trying to set up Consignment stock functionality in our company. We have successfully configured and tested it but there is only one problem, we want to link this consignment functionality with and Outline agreement (Value Contract to be exact), so that every time we do a settlement using MRKO, the invoice value is deducted from the total value of the contract. My first question is
1 - Can we link consignment settlement (MRKO) and Value Contract in such a way that each time we run consignment settlement using MRKO , the open/ remaining value of the Value Contract is decreased by the invoice amount. If YES, then how can we do it (Please mention the steps if possible)
2- If NO, then what is the way to achieve above task, is their workaround for it ??

Normally we do not get into consignment arrangements with supplier with value limites or qty limites. It defeats the purpose of consignment, where idea is to reduce inventory carrying cost and yet have full availability of stock.
Also, you will provide a dedicated space in your premises to your Supplier and hence to limit him with total value of your consumption is difficult to achieve. Even if you make some enhancement in system to achieve it, on shop floor how can you control it, if you have inventory open for use? If you have negotiated with consignment vendor based on value, I am sure Vendor will not replenish any inventory once he thinks that overall value limit is breached and hence suddenly one day, without any indicators to you, you will run out of those components which you do not have in your inventory, nor in your consignment inventory.
You can implement any exit, which may stop you post the transaction in system, but I believe if you are entering into such contracts with your supplier, you may need to have some sort of notification once you are close approaching the overall limit, to either re-negotiate the contract or to have those components ordered for your inventory directly to ensure availability of stock.

Report to list all POs & value contracts in a cost center

Hi,
Our client wants a report to pull all the POs and value contracts that are associated with a cost center. This particular cost center has been closed down. So the client is asking for a report from SAP that lists all the open POs and value contracts associated with the old cost center so that the cost center can be updated to the new one.
Can anyone please advise on this issue?
Thanks

Please make use of ME2K , specify the cost centers , purch org and Scope of lIst :- BEST.
The problem would be that the system does a calculation in order to find whether the order is still open or not in case of of partial receipts/invoice.

Value Contract vs. Qty Contract

Hi All,
For Value Contract the system asks for Target Value in the header of the Contract. For example, if the target value is 10,000USD and I enter in the Target Value field in the contract and when I goto Item Overview the system's asking for Target Qty and Unit Price. Does the total of all the line item have to addup to the Target Value in the Header? I still can save the contract with the target value as 10,000USD and just a single line item with value of 50USD.....This doesn't make any sense.....Why is the system asking for "Target Value" when the line item can be under the Target Value???? Then what is the purpose of Value Contract?
Any explanations for this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Contract is the document that consist of terms and conditions (say Max value as you said 10000USD, validity date in value contract) or (maximum qty and validity date in qty contract).
The document created with T.Code ME31K is known as Contract.
With respect to This we need to create a release order in ME21 specifying delivery date, qty and price to supply it to vendor. You can create relese order upto the maximum value or qty specified in the contract with in the validity date.
For given contract document you can create N number of release orers (but shoild be with in max value and validity date).
USES:
This type of document is used where there is bulk requirement of material/service is needed. At each time they won't create PO, they will have an agreement with the vendor and send the signed contract document and vendor will supply/provide service as per our requirement.
Our requirement is specified in relaese order.
Hope will be helpful for you.

Value contract and pricing procedure.

HI All,
I am working on value contracts. I have configured value contract and other related things. But I have some querries:-
1) Can I use standard order as release order for value contract?
2) Do I need to create a different pricing procedure for value contract? If Yes wont it conflict with the pricing procedure determined in the relaese orders?
Kindly guide.
Regards,
Danny.

1)Can I use standard order as release order for value contract?
Ans: If you use the standard order as the release order document type, how would your restrict a particular customer for the orders (release)
For example: you have something as FOC value Contract.
Now when you can create a standard order same as the release order , how will you restrict the users from creation of orders for a particular customer.
2) Do I need to create a different pricing procedure for value contract? If Yes wont it conflict with the pricing procedure determined in the relaese orders?
Ans: To explain the q1 better , take the example of FOC value Contract( Free of costs)
Say : you business offers free products to customers.
Now the release order will can have a different pricing procedure than the Standard.
The difference would only be a R100 condition type which will make the price as Zero but the taxes will be applicable.
This explains why you should have a different order type for release orders.
