Material master (DIEN) x service master

[former_member361810]

Is there any limitation in PS modules , PM or SRM , if we decide to use the material master ( DIEN ) to represent the items acquisition services , instead of using the Service Master ?

for  PM ,  they can make  a  PM  order  for  service and  with respect  to that order  we  can raise  a  service  Po and  do  service  entry  sheet .

OK. But if I would use the material master ( DIEN ) , I would have these same features in PM ?

You  can  use service  master  instead of  material  master.the  below  link  gives  clear  picture

Thanks for the links.

But it was not clear if I would have some limitation if I used the the material master ( DIEN ) , for the PM modules , PS or SRM.

If I decide to use the material master ( DIEN ) , to meet a business rule ( segregation of service items per plant ) , for example, when I deploy SRM (hence there is a year) I would have some limitation or problem?

If I had to segregate the Service Master by plants, I would not be with these doubts. Is there any way to limit the Service Master by plants ?
