Value Contracts question

Hello All,
We want to use Value Contracts in our organization. I was testing
release orders created with reference to the value contract.
If I create sales order 1 with reference to the value contract, the
system updates the 'value released' of the value contract with the sales
order 1 value. However, at times, we have a requirement to create sales
order 2 with reference to sales order 1. In this case, the 'value
released' amount in the value contract should be increased by the sales
order 2 amount.
Also in certain cases (like consignments), the subsequent sales order
values might be a credit. In this case, the 'value released' in the
value contract should also be credited accordingly.
Currently, in both cases, when subsequent sales orders are created, the
'value released' in the value contract is unchanged.
Can someone please tell me if a value contract can be made to look at
all subsequent orders to update its 'value released'? If yes, could you
please tell me how?
Thanks,
Rugmani

Thank you for your response.
Such a requirement arises in case of Consignments. We are using consignment orders (fillup, pickup, issue, return) for the customer. Hence, we create a consignment fillup order when we are sending out a material. If the customer returns the old material within a specified time, he should not be charged for it. Else, he would be charged and in this case, a consignment issue needs to be created. If, in special cases, we decide to accept the old material (beyond the warranty return period), a Consignment return will be created to credit the customer.
When the value contract comes in play, we need to deduct the value remaining for the customer when we create a pickup, increase the value remaining when the customer returns the material etc. The problem occurs when the amount needs to be put back. As the consignment orders need to be created with reference to one another, there is no link to the value contract and hence the value remaining does not get updated correctly.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions for this requirement.
Thanks,
Rugmani

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.

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

Problems in creating a Value Contract

Hi,
I'm trying to create a value contract using VA41.
The process succeeds for one sales organization, but for another sales organization, I am getting a line in the document incompletion log, saying G/L account data is missing. This is despite the fact that a G/L account IS assigned to this sales organization in VKOA. Even when doubleclicking the error message, and getting to the Analysis Account Determination, it is clearly seen that the system did find a G/L account!
After getting deeper into this, I found that the problem is caused by the item category of the contract line item, which has Revenue Recognition category B (Service-related revenue recognition). If I change this value to blank or a different value in the item category definition (VOV7), then I am able to add the line and save the contract.
The question is whether there is a place where this sales organization (or the company code above it) is defined not to be able to accept lines with Revenue Recognition B? Or maybe I am misunderstanding this whole thing, and the problem is of a different kind?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Amit

Hi Sri,
Thanks for the quick response.
The item category group is not NORM but our company's own item category group - YNOR.
This is not the issue, as this item category group is assigned to the material also in the sales organization that works...

How to include the promotion and sales deal in the value contract ?

Question : Can a value contract contain other special pricing agreement ?
If yes, how to include the promotion and sales deal in the value contract ?
Thanks for your input.
Oscar

Hi Oscar,
I have not worked on this aspect as such but once you create a value contract I think you as well create a promotion and sales deal for the customer with whom you have value contract with in the validity period of the contract and system should pick up data accordingly as the customer is same (Contract) and is within the validity period.
Pl give feed back.

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.

Target value in value contracts

Hello people. I have an issue with value contracts in ECC 6.0 (trx VA41). Usually when you put the target value in your resume screen, that value goes directly to the WK00 condition (because I´m working with the standart price determination Wk0001). But that doesn´t happen in my instalation. The system gives me a error of price calculation: missing Wk00 condition (message V1801).
I checked other 2 systems, but they are working fine. I checked the configuration (conditions, price determination, items, header, copy control) between that systems and mine, and it´s the same.
Additionally, I found this sap note (549875), which says:
+2. Question: What is a value contract characterized by in SAP?
Answer: The completion rule of a value contract item is E (TVAP-ERLRE) that is, the item is completed if the full target value is referenced. The target value of a value contract item is saved as a condition, for example, WK00, on item level. +
In other hand, I checked OSS notes and this forum, but I couldn´t find the answer. Anyone have any idea to solve this issue? Thanks a lot.
Edited by: Rodriguez Gutierrez German Sigfrido on Nov 17, 2010 7:56 PM

Hi,
The error suggests that the WK00 is present in your pricing procedure, but is missing.
Check If you have any other pricing condition type like ZK00 (Copy of WK00), and both WK00 and ZK00 are both present in pricing procedure. WK00 is a manual (no access sequence) and required entry in standard value contract pricing procedure.
If you are not using any other customization in pricing and using standard WK00 condition type, then the error should not occur.

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.

Target value on value contract avail. for pricing

Hello, I have a question and perhaps somebody had a similar situation or has an idea that could help me. On a value contract I would like to get the value of the target value (ZWERT) into the pricing procedure. The goal is to be able to accrue this amount. I can ask users to enter the amount twice but wanted to see if there would be a solution without userexits.
Thank you and regards,
Christian Richter

Hi,
Just check with the routines we maintain in the pricing procedure... Seek help from a tech guy for this...... I think we can do that through routines by putting the logic in the price routines....
This can be requirement routine which should be created and maintained......

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.

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.

Value contract - Need restrcition of amount in PO for contract line item

Hello Guru,
I want to create a single value contract (WK) for multiple years .. say 3 years with target value as 450K USD with three line items for each year of value 150K USD. I would like that when buyers create a PO system should not allow them to create release purchase order for each line item more than 150 K for the year. Can somebody tell me how to configure that?
Here is my current config example :
Contract #ABC - Target value 450 with validity date 1/1/11 until 12/31/13
Line item 1 - 150 K
Line item 2 - 150 K
Line item 3 - 150 K
Now when I create PO with respect to contract#ABC line item 1 - system allows me to create PO with more than 150 K but gives me error message only if I exceed more than 450 K (because message 06/042 is error in config).
The requirement is to create a single contract for the vendor. Can somebody help me to figure out the way to restrict PO amount by each year limit by standard or custom configuration?
Thanks, Sachin

Hi,
As far as I remember it was simple logic!
Something like
Goto EKPO select KONNR ;
If KONNR != blank (Not equal to blank)
Do not allow to change condition type u201CPB00u201D
Also incorporate addition date check for your need

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?
Edited by: manas han on Jul 6, 2010 11:14 PM

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 Value Contract Report

Hi,
As we can get individual customer released value contract amount through T Code VA43 and report Via T code Z_XX_SD_059 for mass customers which is usually not giving the correct amount of released from value contract. The report which is extracted via T code Z_XX_SD_059 normally not reconciled with the end result of T Code VA43.So, Is there any other T code for getting correct release value contract report for multiple customers? Please share if anyone knows.
Regards| Adnan Mahmood

Hi,
tcode Z is an in house development. Check with an abaper why there are differences with respect to VA43.
