Hi

I think here there is a confusion. Using item category is not the only way to procure services. You can use material type DIEN also. In that case you don't have to give any item category. You have to use only account assignment category. Depending on your business requirement you can do GR or Direct invoice verification. (You have config to skip GR). But service entry sheet is not possible.

Hi,

Create 1 line item for service i.e item category "D" and enter the service number.

In other line item, enter the material which is to be ordered.

Do Service acceptance for 1st line item and Post GR for 2nd line item

Then Process the standard MIRO cycle.

I hope this will help

Hi

Will you please let me know scenarion under which you want to create service PO with material code?

Service PO is raised with item category D and account assignment ( K, P etc) which does not permit to assign any material code, only description of service is mentioned at header and details of service is entered at item level. If service code is created in AC03, enter it at item level, all details mentioned in service master will be fetched else you will have to mention details of services manually.

creation of service code is not mandatory and also not much useful. it helps in reporting and automatic GL determination which can be mapped with the help of material group.

Hope, it must have enlighten some knowledge.

Hi

If you have to use service PO but with materials then there one more way left out, Please use DIEN-Service material type and create materials and use, but the again it will be just like a normal PO with material code , but with difference no qty updation and value updation.

Sir,

You can not create SERVICE ORDER or WORK ORDER with using matcode

You can alternatively use service codes..

matcodes can only be use for purchase of material..

not for service

You can use t-code AC01 for creation of service code,,

Hi,

For service PO u need to enter the service number not material codes.

Service number can be created by using transaction code AC01
