Hi

for Creating a contract for a service there should be a requirement for that service , if the services are being utilised Continously then we enter into a contract with the Vendor.

Create a PR for the service , Find service providers & createa a contract with One of the Selected vendor

The contract if created with reference to the PR , then the contrcat number will be displayed in the Purcahse requisition Line item status tab.

Thanks & Regards

Its up to you. PR is not mandatory for Contract Creation. You can also create Purchase order with out PR.

Hi

The Contract can always be created ahead of the PR.

A contract - as it says is a long term agreement with the vendor for the service or goods on a predefined conditons.

whereas a PR /PO is an one time creation activity for a particular material/service.

Also , Its not necessary to create a PR for the services.

You can very well create the PO referring the Contract.

Hi Buddyy,

For STD process its not necessary to have a PR for Contract .

1 > In ur issue u can have Service PR for a pre fixed duration and have Service PO for same .

Or

2 > If u want Contract then u can go as Contract lets considered a Value contract and then PR or directly PO wrt to this contract

As per me the first one is better and no much thigns requried and same process is used by me too

Kindly check n revert

Hi,

It is not mandatory to have a PR to create a Contract/ Service Order. You can directly create a Service Order for Taxi Service or create a PR and refer the same in creation of a Service PO.

Hi,

PR can not be created w.r.t. Contract directly. Contract works as a source of supply in PR.

Also you can create PO directly w.r.t. Contract, PR is not mandatory for this.

As per standard SAP, source determination is done in the following sequence;

1. Quota Arrangement (MEQ1)

2. Source List (ME01)

3. Contract / Scheduling Agreement (ME31K / ME31L)

4. Purchase Info Record (ME11)

The above sequence decides the priority of the source determination.

So create Source list and enter the contract for this and at the time of creating PR, refer Contract as Source of Supply.

You can also refer Contract as Source of Supply w/o maintaining Source list
