MM-SUS Limitations

[former_member526144]

Dear Experts,

I have observed following limitations in MM-SUS. please let me know my assumptions are correct or not?

Apart from that if any limitations in MM-SUS then please let me know.

1) Purchase Orders in MM SUS Scenario must always have POR & ASN in Confirmation sequence

2) ASN creation will not be created with serial numbers.

3)MM SUS scenario is used only for materials.

Thanks

1) yes , the sequence is the same if the purchaser wants the follow on documents

first he has to confirm the purchase order --> and this is purchase order response , then he will create advance shipping notification --> and then the invoice.

if the purchaser wants , he can skip any of them --> and again sequence remains the same except for the follow-on document which is not required.

2) ASN --> number is generated by the system --> but i guess --> items of the asn you should give a number

3) services is possible in MM-SUS , but only as an extension > and is not available in standard> is part of consulting --> which is chargeable..

Dear Khan/Claudia,

You mentioned that POR and ASN is not mandatory. Can you please explain me i want to set up only ASN and i do not want POR for my supplier. How do I configure?

Serial numbers: When we are doing GR in MM, buyer can enter serial numbers for corresponding products. the same funcntiolaity is not available in SRM?

Please le tme know your inputs on this...?

in the purchase order in R/3 at the item level --> there will be one tab ---> 'confirmations' --> there the purchaser can specify --> what all follow-on documents are required from the supplier.

the flags here control --> POR and ASN

and in the tab -->'invoice' --> purchaser can specify --> wether invoice is required as follow-on document from the supplier side...

Hi Ravi,

1) Purchase Orders in MM SUS Scenario must always have POR & ASN in Confirmation sequence

--> no, it depends on the seetings in the PO for the supplier

2) ASN creation will not be created with serial numbers

--> ? - it generates the next available number in the number range. are you referring to a different number in parallel to the ASN?

3)MM SUS scenario is used only for materials

--> main focus, yes; services are very limited

Cheers,

Claudia
