3 Overview This document describes a process called Direct Subcontracting. The process is similar to a third party scenario, but the difference is that here instead of a vendor; a subcontractor ships the final product to customer. Functionality Our client was using customer consignment scenario, where the ownership of the good lies with my client till the time customer withdraws the goods. But, my client has gone for new set of agreement with the customer. And the customer has agreed to take the ownership of the material within say for example between 1 and 90 days of receipt of product. This means, technically based on the product receipt, sales billing can be generated. The new process is between a consignment and direct subcontracting process. So there was necessity to phase out the consignment process. The phase out of consignment process also triggered a new set of process improvement initiative. The high level requirement for the new functionality is as follows: 1. The sales process should trigger a subcontracting purchase order 2. Based on the subcontracting purchase order it should be possible to send components with serial numbers 3. When the subcontractor ships the final product to the customer he will send a shipping notification; with this notification an inbound delivery should be created 4. When this inbound delivery is used to perform the goods receipts, then the subcontracting components should automatically get back-flushed. 5. The sales order billing should only be possible when the statistical goods receipt is done for the purchase order SAP AG 3
4 The flow chart of this functionality is included here.

5 Implementation This asset is built on SAP 4.7 version, but it is scalable across to the latest version ERP 6.0. We need to have following changes to SAP. Changes on Sales and Distribution Customizing: 1. Create a new item category group 2. Create a new item category 3. Assign the new item category to the item category group 4. Create a new schedule category with Item category 3 and account assignment X 5. Assign the item category to the new schedule line category 6. Maintain the copy control settings for the new item category Step for item category definition and assignment 1. Create a new item category group ZTSU Configuration path: IMG Sales and Distribution Sales Sales Documents Sales Document Item Define Item Category Group 2. Create a new item category ZTSU Configuration path: IMG Sales and Distribution Sales Sales Documents Sales Document Item Define Item Categories 2009 SAP AG 5
6 3. Assign the new item category ZTSU to the item category group ZTSU Configuration path: IMG Sales and Distribution Sales Sales Documents Sales Document Item Assign Item Categories 4. Create a new schedule category as ZD with Item category 3 and account assignment X Configuration path: IMG Sales and Distribution Sales Sales Documents Schedule Lines Define Schedule Line Categories 5. Assign the item category to the new schedule line category ZD Configuration path: IMG Sales and Distribution Sales Sales Documents Schedule Lines Assign Schedule Line Categories 2009 SAP AG 6
7 6. Maintain the copy control settings for the new item category Transaction: VTFA Changes on Material Management: Configuration changes on Materials Management: For automatic determination of item category in inbound delivery for the delivery type, item category group, usage (purchase order) and item category (ZTSU), default item category ELN (Shipping Notification) will be assigned. This would be done at customizing path: Logistics Execution Shipping Deliveries Maintain item category determination in deliveries. We have to maintain the configuration to allow the combination of usage of item category Subcontracting and Account Assignment Category (Sales Order without GR X). The customizing path is: Materials Management Purchasing Account Assignment Define combinations of Item Categories/ Account Assignment Categories. Changes to purchase order form: There would be one change on existing PO form. As in this process vendor is directly delivering it to the customer, Vendor would need reference of the customer PO number for delivery. This information can be extracted from PO reference field from sales order. The below logic should only get triggered for the purchasing process: Sales order with no GR and Subcontracting (Account Assignment Category X and Item category 3 Subcontracting) The customer reference number can be taken with help of tables: Account Assignment in Purchasing Document (EKKN) and Sales Document: Business Data (VBKD). With help of the given PO from table Account Assignment in Purchasing Document you can get the sales order number. With this sales order you can go to table Sales Document: Business Data, and get the purchase order number SAP AG 7
8 This derived purchase order number should be printed below the text customer reference on PO form as shown below: Demo Details The detailed demo is included in user manual for this process. This demo also contains the test case confirming that the asset is tested and working as expected. The user manual steps are given below: Material Master Changes To ensure that the item category ZTSU (Direct Subcontract) is picked up automatically on sales order creation, it is necessary to have item category group as ZTSU on Sales org 2 view in material master SAP AG 8
9 Sales Order Creation Create sales order with transaction code: VA01 or SAP path: Logistics Sales and Distribution Sales Order Create Item category ZTSU should be picked automatically on sales order creation. After the sales order is saved check the costing is done automatically. So, when you go into the changes mode of sales order the document should be completed. Convert Purchase Requisition (PR) to Purchase Order (PO) If the sales order is created without any critical field or credit block, then it will automatically create a purchase requisition. Convert this purchase requisition into purchase order with transaction code: ME57 or 2009 SAP AG 9
10 SAP Path: Logistics Materials Management Purchasing Purchase Requisition Follow-On Functions Assign and Process. Give sales order number in below screen, tick on Assigned purchase requisitions and click Execute SAP AG 10
11 Select the output line item. Click on button Assignments. You see below screen. Place your cursor on while line with text 1 NB 1 and Click on button Process assignment. You get a pop-up, click on continue button as shown below 2009 SAP AG 11
12 The system will take you to purchase order creation screen. Here select the purchase requisition and click on button Adopt as shown below. As soon as button Adopt is clicked all the PR details are copied to PO. Check the storage location (Consignment use) is used while creating the PO. If there are no errors the PO would be saved, you get following message SAP AG 12
13 Releasing the Purchase Order (PO) Get the PO released SAP AG 13
14 Check that Purchase Order Reference is Printed on PO Form Check that the PO form has the correct Delivery Address and Client Purchase Order Reference. Send the Components to Subcontractor Now, you can send the components to subcontractor with transaction code ME2O SAP AG 14
15 On the output select the line item and click on button outbound delivery Then for this outbound delivery you can complete picking and goods issue. There is no change to this process. Hence, further details are not given here. Process the Shipping Notification to Create an Inbound Delivery When the subcontractor completes his work and he will ship the goods to customer. The shipping notification will also be send to client via Fax or SAP AG 15
16 Based on this shipping notification you can create an inbound delivery from transaction code VL31N or SAP Path: Logistics Materials Management Purchasing Purchase Order Inbound Delivery Create. Give vendor and purchase order details. You can take PO details from step 5. Note: If you are not able to create inbound delivery check following: 1. Before creating an inbound delivery the PO should be released. 2. Check if the PO line item has confirmation control key as shipping notifications. When you click Continue, you get following screen 2009 SAP AG 16
17 Now, go to tab: Stock placement and give Putaway Quantity As soon as you give putaway quantity and press enter, the overall putaway status is changed from A For putaway to C - Compl. put away. Now, you can save the inbound delivery. You get the inbound delivery number SAP AG 17
18 Perform Goods Receipt (GR) with Inbound Delivery As such this step could be performed via a background job, but for clarity this process is also covered here. You can perform the goods receipt with inbound delivery from transaction code VL06IG or SAP Path: Logistics Logistics Execution Inbound Process Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery Post Goods Receipt Collective Processing Via Inbound Delivery Monitor Give the Inbound delivery number or the PO number in below screen On the output select the line item and press Post goods receipt 2009 SAP AG 18
19 You get following pop-up, click Continue. The material document is created as seen below. Note: If you get error: VL659 (Error when creating document flow for delivery &), then check if the subcontractor has enough stock for the component material SAP AG 19
20 Go to the PO and see the GR document. Click on the material document number. You see that the back flushing of the component is done with movement type SAP AG 20
21 Complete Sales Order Billing Now, as the statically delivery is done for the purchase order, sales order can be billed to customer. Create the billing document with VF01 or from SAP path: SAP path: Logistics Sales and Distribution Sales Order Change You see following screen on VF01 When you save the billing document is generated SAP AG 21
22 See the sales order document flow: With this step the process is complete. Conclusion As we have seen, this is almost completely a standard SAP process, without many changes. It can bring considerable efficiency and productivity improvement in consignment and subcontracting areas. It has benefits like reduced lead time for deliveries to customer, and fastens the billing process. It has good cost saving benefits and can help simplify the overall process SAP AG 22
