2 Introduction

Below the SAP exercises of this course will be given. These exercises have to be dealt with completely. A mark will be assigned only in case the complete processes have been executed.

The SAP-exercises will be carried out for the wholesaler Pulles. Pulles cooperates closely with the vendor/supplier: van Lierop. Van Lierop is a well-known player on the market for electronic equipment and Pulles is one of the major customers.Despite this close cooperation the quality control has not been shifted to van Lierop. The quality control remains the responsibility of Pulles. The quality control is performed at the goods receipt.Pulles has organised a quality management system in the plant in Maastricht. The plant in Amsterdam is lacking this facility.The customer: Luiten is a major customer of Pulles. In addition to these existing trading partners, additional trading partners will be created by you.

Following the assignments, the criteria, which apply for the determination of the mark, are given.Next the logon procedure, to logon to the SAP system, is given. The sign in codes will be handed out at the beginning of the learning arrangement.Finally a number of default settings and other useful hints are given.

For a global time scedule see the course manual.

5 Master data purchasing process

5.1 Introduction

5.2 Material master data

5.2.1 Introduction

The table below shows several departments of the company and additional data fields that these department includes as information in the SAP system.

Organisational level/department Additional data fieldBasic Product allocationSales Cross distribution

chain material statusPlant Hazardous material

numberPurchasing Order UnitQuality management Catalog profileAccounting Price determination

In the following the additional data fields are explained:

Product Allocation: The procedure of product allocation determines how a product allocation is carried out. An info structure is assigned which influences the criteria used when product allocations are stored in the planning hierarchy. There is also the possibility of assigning several objects to the product allocation. Each object then has its own validity period. The corresponding planning hierarchy contains the product allocation which is determined for each object.

Cross distribution chain material status: For all distribution chains the cross distribution chain material statues indicates whether the material my be used in individual functions in Sales and Distribution. Through this status the usability of the materials is restricted for the distribution chains.

Hazardous material number: The hazardous material number indicates whether the material is hazardous or dangerous. This number assigns hazardous material or dangerous goods data to the specific material.

Order Unit: This field indicates the unit of measure in which the material is ordered. It differs from the base of unit measure.

Catalog Profile: Is a key of the report schema which is the basis for the message. It is used in plant maintenance and customer service.

Price determination: This data field provides information about how the price is determined. Two options how to determine it are given. Either the activity-based determination which calculates the moving average price. Or the single-/multi level price which calculates the periodic unit price.

Page 10: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Additional department relevant in the material master record:Theoretically, there is a possibility to found a customer service and repair department, assuming that there is none until now. This department would handle customer complaints and goods for repair.

Additional material type:An additional material would be raw material which is needed for the company to produce finished goods.

5.2.2 Material list

The screenshot above shows a part of the material list provided through material master data. The material Standard Lightning Purchase/Sales are shown for the two production plants in Amsterdam PA41 and Maastricht PM 41. 42 indicates the material number for the Standard Lightning Purchasing/Sales. (Name will be changed later into: Standard Lighting Purchasing/Sales)

Description of the data fields (the F1 function was not possible at this time):

Base Unit of Measure: is the base for the stock in which the materials are managed. Quantities which are entered into the system are converted into the base of unit of measure. It is also possible to define alternative units of measure and the corresponding conversion factor.

Delivery Plant: Indicates from which plant the material will be delivered to the customer. This plant is automatically copied into the sales order as a default value.

Scale Quantity: The scale quantity might be for example the number of pieces to which a scale refes.

Net Price Condition: Depending on the document the net price can be determined by 3 different tables. These tables stand for the net price conditions.

Tax Indication for material: The tax indication for material is used to determine the tax code for the purchasing process. Within the process of price determination this indicator helps to facilitate this process.

Goods receipt processing time: This data fields indicates how many workdays are required for the inspection and placement into storage of the material after receiving it.

Inspection Setup: Within SAP this indicator is set when an inspection setup for the material and plant exists. If this setup is activated, also a control key has to be stored.

8

Page 12: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Quality Management control key: As mentioned before for the inspection setup a control key has to be stored. Through this key the conditions which are valid for the quality management are determined.

Standard Price: This data field indicates that the evaluation of the material stocks at this standard price means that the goods movements are valuated at the same price throughout an extended period.

5.2.4.1 Introduction

Pulles is interested in extending its lighting product range. Lighting materials range from basic lighting equipment to very expensive lighting systems. Therefore, a new material has to be created. The master data for this material is shown in the table below and will be entered into the SAP system.Organisational level Data field ValueBasic Base unit of measure ST

5.2.4.2 Creating master data new material

The advantage of an external number assignment is, that the number means something for the user of the system, as the user is able to assign this number on his/her own. A disadvantage would be that chosen terms might already been used by other records. If an internal number

9

Page 13: SAP Purchasing/Sales

assignment is used this problem is not likely to occur, since the system itself will choose and set the numbers.An advantage of the creation of a master record centrally is, that it is easier to restrict the system. One central department can create these records, which is positive as this department has the full overview of the master records. A disadvantage would be, that the workload of this single department is pretty high and the communication level at the company must be very advanced to avoid communication errors. The creation of master records decentrally would mean less burocracy. Nevertheless the usage by several users might be confusing and end up in faults of records.

Page 15: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Purchasing SalespersonAdditional data fields:

The data field Region is a possible addition to the vendor master data displayed under addresses. It allows to appoint specific geographic regions (e.g. Limburg in the Netherlands) to a selected vendor and refers specificly to general adress data.

Under Withholding tax code a default per business partner can be defined. Since tax information is of explicit interest for the finance department it is integrated under accounting.

As additional information for purchasing the Salesperson datafield highlights a specific contactperson for dealings with this specific vendor. Only the purchasing department is in need of this specific information.

5.3.2 Vendor list

The screenshot above shows the vendor list, with the different vendors of the company Pulles. The vendor number, which is important for any entries in the SAP system is mentioned (34) as well as the address of the vendor.

Page 17: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Country: Identifies the geographic location of a vendor in code (e.g. NL) and text (e.g. Netherlands).

Language: Shows the native language of the vendor in order to simplify communication.

Reconciliation account: Account on which movements of sub ledgers, e.g. debtors, creditors and investments are notified.

Terms of payment: Appoints terms of payment for transactions with vendors according to agreement.

Incoterms: Incoterms are globally accepted regulations for the international movement of goods. By using this field the purchaser is able to appoint procurement contracts and sellers' duties (e.g.Ex Works).

Schema group vendor: Determines the pricing procedure, which is used in purchasing documents of a specific vendor. This schema is appointed by reference to a certain schema group. Consequentaly the conditions can differ between different documents.

Purchasing group: By utilizing this data purchasing activities of a purchasing group can be analysed. An overview of receipts, receipt positions and their allocation can be realized.

5.3.4 Master data new vendor

Advantages and disadvantages of the creation of a new vendor:

Advantages of creating new vendor using a reference vendor: ideally abridges the creation process by carrying over default values from the system counteracts errors made in haste in particular in regard to standard data streamlines the data input when dealing with vendors with similar backgrounds

Disadvantages of creating new vendor using a reference vendor: abets wrong inputs and by doing so requires prudence user can continue to spread previously wrong data to new vendor master data can lead to longer input times

5.3.4.2 Creating master data new vendor

As a reason of the process above a new vendor Konig does exist now. The vendor number 145, which is important for any entries in the SAP system is shown, as well as the address of the vendor.

The following table shows the master data of the new vendor, which has now been entered in the system.Organisational level Data field ValueAddress Vendor (number) 145

Page 20: SAP Purchasing/Sales

This screenshot as well shows the net price conditions for the existing material for the vendor Van Lierop. Both indicated through the referring numbers. The difference to the first screenshot is the amount of 60,00 in the lower part of the screenshot. The price difference is due to different plants, which the screenhots refer to.

5.4.2 Price element freight costs: ZFRA

The screenshot above shows that there are not freight conditions for the plant in Amsterdam yet. Since the procedure did not result in a value for the freight costs, the freight costs for both plants (PM41 and PA41) had to be created first. This was handled through application of the “create” function. The screenshot documents the first step of the creation process.

In a second step the existing vendor (34) was entered into the system. As a result of the process above the freight conditions had been entered in the system. The vendor number 34 as well as the description show that this screenshot refers to the vendor Van Lierop. No amount has been set yet for a quantity of 1KG.

17

Page 21: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Finally a specific amount was entered on basis of the given information (2,00 EUR/1 KG). Incoterms are special trade terms, which are given rules that traders have to follow. These are referred to for this vendor.

The freight costs for both plants (PM41 and PA41) can now be displayed under the overview. In this case the screenshot only shows the freight conditions for Plant PA41, still the conditions for both plants are equal.

5.6 Bank account posting

5.6.1 Introduction

In order to be able to execute its primary processes, Pulles should have a positive bank account. For that reason, a business plan is discussed with the account manager of the bank and a loan is granted to Pulles at an amount of 100.000 Euro.

5.6.2 Posting on the bank account

19

Page 23: SAP Purchasing/Sales

The screenshot above shows that the company Pulles raise a loan of the amount of 100.000 Euro. The account affected by this process is the loan account 46020, which is indicated through the account number at the top of this screenshot. Furthermore, it is indicated that the loan is due after one year resulting in a deduction of this amount from the loan account.

5.6.3 Posting document

As a reason of the raise of a loan in the step before the account of the loan 46020 is affected negatively. Whereas the bank account is raised at the amount of 100.000. This is the exact amount that the loan shows. The amount of 100.000 Euro is now available for the company to operate with.

5.6.4 Balance sheet

20

Page 24: SAP Purchasing/Sales

The screenshot above shows the Balance Sheet of the company CC41. It normally should show all accounts that the company has an activa and passiva. Due to format errors this is actually not possible. As a reason of the process described before only the two accounts affected by this step are shown. The accounting document already showed that through the raise of the loan this account decreased or was credited and the bank account increased, was therefore debited.

The following graphic shows the process flow diagram of the new material.

22

Page 26: SAP Purchasing/Sales

23

Page 27: SAP Purchasing/Sales

In the following the process data flow of the new material will be explained:

Availability and stock quantity checkingThe logistics department is responsible for the availability of the materials. On a regular basis, the availability is checked.

Creating purchase requisitionAs a result of the availability check, the logistics department creates a purchase requisition. The new material is requested because no stock is available at all. The purchase requisition is sent to the purchasing department, where the vendor for the material will be determined. Since the purchase requisition covers materials for both plants, the purchase requisition is sent to the purchasing group A. The standard policy within Pulles is that purchase requisitions, dealing with both plants, have to be dealt with by the purchasing group A.

Selecting potential vendorsA purchase employee determines potential vendors for the materials of the purchase requisition. For the new material, only the new vendor will be considered.

Creating RFQThe purchase employee sends a RFQ for the new material to the new vendor. The RFQ distinguishes between plant PM41 and PA41 In this way the vendor can offer different prices, depending on the plant. The RFQ informs the vendor about the price elements and the price calculation the vendor has to meet.

Maintain quotationThe prices offered are different for both plants. The quotations are entered in the SAP system by the purchasing employee.

Creating purchase orderIn case of the new material, the purchase order is based on the quotation, offered by the new vendor. The purchase order is created for the new vendor.The vendor is requested to send a confirmation, as soon as the purchase order is received.The vendor is also requested to send a shipping notification, shortly before they deliver the materials. This shipping notification has to inform about the arrival date and the quantity of the material to be delivered. The amount of the shipping depends on the purchase order.

Creating confirmationOnly the new vendor sends a confirmation, indicating that they will be capable of delivering the materials ordered for the requested delivery date.

Creating shipping notificationIt turns out that the new vendor is not capable of delivering the ordered quantity in time. Therefore, a shipping notification is received. The quantity of the shipping notifications may vary depending on the vendor’s ability to supply. At a later stage a second shipping notification will be issued for the remaining quantity (see the last process steps). If another notification will arrive this has to be adjusted with the purchase order created before.

24

Page 28: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Creating goods receiptThe new material, which is received at the plant PM41 from the new vendor, is stored in the quality control stock area of the storage location SM41. The new material, which is received at the plant PA41 from the new vendor, is stored in the storage location SA41 as unrestricted use stock.

Recording inspection resultThe quality inspection occurs according to the specifications of the quality management department at the plant PM41. For that purpose the material is forwarded from the quality control stock area to the quality inspection area. Of course the new material have to meet different specifications and will be inspected independently. The result of the quality inspection is recorded for the new material ordered.

Creating usage decisionBased on the quality inspection results the usage decision for the new material for plant PM41 is taken. All materials will be accepted and forwarded to the unrestricted use stock.

Creating invoiceThe invoices are sent by the new vendor after the goods receipt for both plants have occurred. One invoice is received from the new vendor, covering both goods receipts.

Releasing invoiceThe release of the invoice of the new vendor is postponed until the remaining materials have been received as well.

Creating outgoing paymentThe final document of the outgoing payment is created by the new vendor.

These processes might be repeated for several shipping notifications, this however depends on the purchase order. If the purchase order is divided into e.g two halfs the process described above will be repeated twice.

Page 31: SAP Purchasing/Sales

End lead time:Availability is only checked up to the finish of end lead time. If the material availability date is calculated on the basis of the current date to lie after the end lead time for the item, the item itself can be confirmed despite insufficient stock being available. In this case, the system assumes that any quantity requested by the customer can be procured by the material availability date and considers the goods to be available.

7.2.2 Stock quantity

In the following the stock quantity of the new material in both plants is shown. Obviously there is no existing stock for this material.

The screenshot displays the purchase order with the two line items. At the button the first line item is referred to. It shows that an invoice was created, which is indicated through IR-L and the invoice number 510560972.

As the first screenshot, this one also refers to the purchase order of 4500000208. This time to the second line item. For this an invoice was also created with the number 510560972, which is the same as for the first line item. The reason for this is the same purchase order number which indicated the same vendor for both line items.

The screenshot displays the purchase order 4500000198, also containing two line items. Ths screenshot refers to the first line item and the invoice created with the number 510560971.

55

Page 59: SAP Purchasing/Sales

This screenshot refers to the same PO as mentioned before, this time to the second line item. The reason for the same invoice number is the same as with the first purchase order. The vendor is the same, and therefore there is no need to have several invoices.

This screenshot shows the first invoice referring to the new material and the new vendor Konig. The purchase order this invoice is referring to, is mentioned in the bottom part of this document. Furthermore, the total amount of this invoice is indicated in the upper part at 31,371.38 Euro.

The screenshot shows the second invoice 510560971 referring to the existing material from the existing vendor Van Lierop. The two line items of the purchase order are displayed as well as the total amount for this invoice of 4,581.50 Euro.

This screenshot is more or less the same as the one before, but the other vendor account is affected, which indicates that the new material is the matter of this invoice. All accounts affected are mentioned.

The financial statement shows all accounts which were affected in the last tasks. The reason for now changes in the bank account is, that there have not been any outgoing payments, yet. The loss rom external product price differences result in the discount that will be given to our company.

For the second half of the purchase order referring to the new material there was also a document created for the goods receipt referring to the remaining 25.

This overview shows the second line item of the same purchase order as the overview before. It indicated also the goods receipt created and the remaining quantity to be delivered.

The document displays the material document which refers to the first line item of the purchase order of the new material.

66

Page 70: SAP Purchasing/Sales

This overview refers to the second line item of the purchase order which was divided into two halfs. This one refers to the Plant PA and therefore the stock type is “unrestricted use” in comparison to the first line item, which has to go through a quality inspection.

As with the first part of the purchase order this time as well the account 23100 is affected through price differences due to the discount which will be given. The financial document refers to the higher quantity of 25, indicated through the higher amount.

67

Page 71: SAP Purchasing/Sales

The second line item quantity is lower as from the first one, therefore the amounts mentioned here are lower. Still there is a price difference due to the discount which will be given at the outgoing payment.

This overview shows the purchase order document number which this inspection is referred to. It only concerns the items at Plant PM41, as at PA41 there is not Quality Management division for an inspection.

There has not been any changes in the bank account yet due to the fact that it has not been subject of happenings yet. No outgoing payment has been stated so far. GR/IR clearing, trading goods and loss from external product price differences were the only accounts affected by the goods receipt.

8.1 Customer master data

8.1.1 Introduction

The table shows organizational units and additional data fields of these.

Organisational unit/Department Additional data fieldAddress TelephoneAccounting AuthorizationSales Customer Group

The telephone data field, for example, which is regarded as general data, is only relevant for sales and distribution. However, since it is not based on the sales and distribution organization of the company and is always unique for this customer, it is not considered part of the sales and distribution data.

Access to master records can be restricted in order to prevent unauthorized changes from being made. The user can assign different authorizations for different types of processing. Authorizations are specified during system configuration and assigned to each user in his or her user master record. In this case accounting data is affected and therefore it is reasonable to leave the responsibility for data adaptions in this department

Allows the company to group its customers by industry or by sales figures. This way the individual classification system can be used to find objects that match the required criteria.Since the sales department is in direct customer contact it can most effectively classify clients into distinct groups.

Description of the data fields (the F1 function did not work, therefore, we were forced to think of explanations ourselves):

Under the country data field the user can assign a key for the country-specific formatting routine to each country. Countries that have a routine contained in the standard system, these fields are predefined accordingly.

The input under this data field determines the standard language used within the customer master data (important for language specific characteristics e.g. cedilla).

The delivering plant refers to the plant from which the goods are to be delivered to the customer, within a specific sales organization and distribution channel. The plant can be automatically proposed by the system when processing a sales order, if it has been maintained in one of the master records.

Incoterms are special trading rules that traders/retailers need to stick to. The incoterms are internationally recognized and from great importance for traders. These rules facilitate international trade as it help traders from different countries to understand each other in trade business.

Payment terms or terms of payment are special conditions under which traders make a sale. These terms normally specify the period allowed to a buyer to pay of the amount of an invoice.

Customer pricing procedures define a group of condition types in a particular sequence. This determines among others which sub-totals appear during pricing. To what extent the pricing can be processed manually, which method the system uses to calculate percentage disounct and surcharges and which requirements for a particular condition type mustbe fulfilled before the system takes the conditions into account.

The reconciliation account is in its essence a balance sheet, which cannot directly be altered. Thus all postings made in the subsidiary ledgers are posted through the reconciliation account to the general ledger. The recon. Account is kept for a certaingroup like vendors or customers In this case the value indicates the effected customer account.

If the distribution channel is created with the master data of an existing customer as a reference customer the advantage is that data can be easily adapted. The system can assume the data for the customer referring to the distribution channel, which simplifies the process of creation. The data does not have to entered again in the system, which decreases the work load.

9.3.4 Description process steps

Display Customer Master record All data needed  for the sales process can be found under the customer master record. Creating Customer Master recordWhen dealing with a new customer the new data has to be entered into the system. Important organizational levels like sales, accounting or general data have to be filled in.

Checking inquiryAs a first step of the sales process the inquiry of both the existing and the new customer are checked on the basis of the Customer Master data.

Creating inquiryThe existing customer sends an inquiry to the sales department for the existing and the new material. The delivery plant is the plant in Amsterdam. The new customer sends an inquiry to the sales department for the existing and the new material. The delivery plant is the plant in Amsterdam. In this way the data of the delivery plant is set. The inquiry needed for the quotation is the document created in this step.

Creating quotationPulles creates a quotation for each inquiry. The quotation informs the customer about the prices and the delivery date. On the basis of the inquiry the quotation is set up and sent to the customer. In this way the customer is able to confirm the quotation.

Redistribution available quantitiesIt turns out that the quotation quantities can not be delivered in time. For that reason it is decided that the unrestricted use stock in Amsterdam will be shared in a fair way by the two quotations. This redistribution is considered in the quotation document.

Creating orderFor each quotation an order is received from the customer. There have been changes to the quotation due to redistribution in the step before. These changes are considered in the quotation document. On this new basis the order of both customers are adapted.

Creating outbound deliveryThe orders are the basis for the outbound deliveries, which are created in a next step. The document for this step is therefore the outbound delivery.

Creating picking The quantity of the outbound delivery is picked from the unrestricted use stock. The picking process refers to the outbound delivery, which was created before.

Creating goods issueThe materials are loaded into the truck and sent to the customer. The quantity issued refers to the picking in the step before.

87

Page 91: SAP Purchasing/Sales

Creating invoice/billAn employee of the accounting department creates the invoice for the goods, sent to the customer. The customers both receive an invoice for the quantity that they will be supplied with. By reason of the invoice a financial document is also created within SAP, which is only for Pulles use.

Creating stock transfer orderIt turns out that the warehouse in Maastricht has sufficient on stock of both the existing and the new material. A purchase order (stock transfer order) is sent to the plant in Maastricht. This happens due to the fact that there was not enough stock in plant Amsterdam to cover both inquiries of the two customers.

Creating outbound delivery plant MaastrichtThe stock transfer order results in one outbound delivery for the open quantity. This outbound delivery refers to a purchase order which was created from plant in Amsterdam.

Creating picking plant MaastrichtThe quantity of the outbound delivery is picked from the unrestricted use stock.

Creating goods issue plant MaastrichtThe existing and the new material are picked from the unrestricted use stock of Maastricht and loaded on the truck to transport the material to the plant in Amsterdam. Here as well a financial document is created for internal use. This document refers to the goods issued.

Creating goods receipt plant AmsterdamThe existing and the new material are stored in the unrestricted use stock of the plant in Amsterdam.

Adapting sales order delivery scedulesThe availability of the sales order line items is adapted. This results in a new order document, which is created through this process.

Creating outbound deliveryThe availability of the material for the order is checked. Following, each order results in one outbound delivery for the open quantity. This results in a new outbound delivery for the second part of the order.

Creating picking The quantity of the outbound delivery is picked from the unrestricted use stock. The basis for the picking is the outbound delivery document, which was created in the step before. Furthermore, the picking document is created within this process.

Creating goods issueThe materials are loaded into the truck and sent to the customer. These materials were picked before and form the quantity of the second order.

Creating invoice/billAn employee of the accounting department creates the invoice for the goods, sent to the customer. For internal purposes a financial document is created, which shows the accounts being affected by this process.

Creating incoming paymentAn employee of the accounting department enters the incoming payment. These incoming payments cover both invoices. Although the first invoice was sent already before.

The reason that there is not confirmed quantity for the new material on the 20.12.2009 is that the stock of the new material is only 10. The first customer already inquiried 8, which leave only 2 items for the new customer. As the total amount cannot be met by the company, Gollum will not receive any item unless the stock is backfilled.

Still both line items with the same amounts of 8 and 10 are displayed. The incoterms are also set. Incoterms are special trade rules, which retailers need to stick to.

This screenshot displays the second quotation from the new customer, indicated through the PO nuber 910CC4120. Also the Sold-to-Party number 137 indicates the customer Gollum. The two line items for the materials 42 and 772 are displayed as well as their quantity. As well as with the first quotation the incoterms are set at EXW.

This is also indicated through the order number 0000000171, which is the next step under the quotation. As the outbund delivery is not made yet, the status of the order is still open meaning incomplete.

As the screenshot before this screenshot also displays the document flow but this time referring to the second inquiry, which is indicated through the quotation number at the top. The order number also differs from the first one. As well as for the first quotation the status of the order is open as the outbund delivery has not been set yet but will be the next step for the completion of the order.

In comparison to the last document flow the status of the order for the first line item is completed now, as the outbound delivery is set. For the second line item the order is still in process. The reason for this is that there was not enough stock to cover the inquiry of the first and the second customer. This problem has to be solved before the order can be completed. Therefore, the outbound delivery for the second line item is still open.

105

Page 109: SAP Purchasing/Sales

The document flow shows that the next step, the outbound delivery has been completed for the first line item. The outbound delivery for the second line item is not yet completed as there were complications with the stock to be used. As the total amount which was inquired by the two customers exceeded to total quantity in stock. Therefore, the order for the second line item also for this quotation is still in process.

This screenshot shows the overview of the outbound delivery. The quantity of the second item was set on 5 items for this delivery as the stock amount was lower than the quantity of the quotation. As indicated at the right of this screenshot the total amount of the delivery should be 10. Therefore, there are another 5 that shall be delivered at some later point in time.

The screenshot shows the outbound delivery for the second quotation, which is indicated through the number at the top ending with 348 instead of 347. The amount for the second line item, which refers to the new material is also set at 5. On the right there is the actual quantity of the delivery 8. So there are an additional 3 items, which have to be delivered to the new customer Gollum.
