Service PO Amendment

[former_member222120]

Hi SAP Experts,

Greetings to all...

I wish to ask following question:

I have created a service PO for 100Rs and posted the Service Entry Sheet for this. Later I changed the purchase order to 120 Rs. Now when I am trying to post the MIRO of the PO the system is not letting me to post the PO because of the tolerance (FYI - I have set the tolerance as zero and set the message M8083 as error message).

Where as the same is working with the material PO.

I create a material PO for 100Rs and posted GRN. Later I changed the PO price to 120 Rs. When I post the MIRO for 120 the system doesnt show me error message because of the tolerance.

Please note in both of the cases (service and material) service based IV and GR Based IV is ticked.

So I would like to ask why the behaviour of service po is not same as material PO as far as tolerance is concerned.

Please suggest if I can do something to post the service po same as material po.

Thanking you in advance,

Regards,

Uday Kumar.

Hi,

Must remember in Service order, you have quantity 1 (In item level) as activity unit and once Service order released, you should not change the price of service for same line item. Also accounting document created for 1st line item(100 Rs) on releasing of service entry sheet for Service order. If needed by business, you can   add new line items of 2nd line item(20 Rs) to the Service orders in transaction code: ME22N, Release again the Service order. Now go for creation and releasing of service entry sheet for Service orders for 2nd line item.

Now you can do invoice verification for  service order with 1st line item(100 Rs) and 2nd line item(20 Rs).

which is equal to your invoice value of 120 Rs.

Hi Bijay,

Thanks for your response. And Bijay I am really thankful to you for helping me several time.

yes you are correct that ideally the user should add additional line item rather than amending the purchase order after the GRN/SES. But the business is something that we will have to make changes in PO after the Service Entry Sheet is posted. When I try to post the MIGO with reference to the PO it should have allowed to post for 120 RS and if I post MIRO with reference to Service Entry sheet then system should allow me to post for 100. Where as currently the system is allowing me to post MIRO with refrence to PO for 100Rs.

Please suggest if there is any note or setting is needed to be implemented.

Thanks & Regads,

Uday Kumar.

Hi,

Once Purchase Order/Service Order released and send to vendor,price should not be changed for same item as  Purchase Order/Service considered as committed document with all pricing and delivery condition!

As you and business needed, you can  creates Contract for service and do maintain the different price for service with validity period .Create Purchase Order/Service  WRT Service Contract, do SES WRT Purchase Order/Service.

Thanks Ajit and Anoop for prompt response.

Actually the behaviour is different when I am posting MIRO when PO is amended after posting GRN or SES.

In the above example I am allowed to perform MIRO for 120 in case of material. Where as in case of service the system allows me to post MIRO for Rs 100.

Where as the expectation from client was to post the MIRO of 120 after amendment. It will be great if someone can help me on this.

Thanks to Ajit and Anoop once again for response.

Dear Uday,

In case of service PO, at the time of MIRO, are you posting invoice against Service netry sheet.

If yes, then invoice will give you an error message.. because even if service based IV is ticked in PO the invoice is against SES which is 100...

Kindly let me know if it is another case...so that i can help you on this..

Hi Priti,

Thanks for your response. I am posting the MIRO against the service PO (not against the service entry sheet) so my expectation is that the system should allow me to post MIRO for 120 Rs where as the system is not allowing me to post for 120 Rs.

Please suggest if I am missing something in this.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Uday,

GR-based Invoice indicator has the same functionality and control for both the services and materials.

[ajitkumar]

when GR based indicator is ticked for service PO, it works the same way as material PO
