Manage Purchase Contracts (F1600)

The figure displays information for a purchase contract.
Purpose
With this app, you can get an overview of all existing contracts. You can create new contracts with a specific validity time frame and a target quantity or a target value. You can also renew contracts for which the target quantity or target value has been reached. Note that you can only access contracts if you have authorizations for the respective purchasing group, purchasing organization, and purchase contract type (quantity contract and value contract). You can create a contract template, enabling you to reuse data from the template whenever you create a new contract. In addition, you can check the contract value that has been consumed so far by all the release orders issued against this contract, along with the release order details. You can display the contract leakage percentage. Contract leakage is a KPI that identifies the spend of purchase orders that do not have a contract reference, although an existing contract could have been used.
Key Features
Search for contracts based on different criteria, such as creation date, validity status, supplier, purchasing organization, and purchasing group.
Display, create, edit, or delete contracts and contract templates.
You can create a contract with or without reference to a contract template.
Renew an existing contract from the list.
You can change or extend the validity period, target quantity, or target value of an existing contract. Note that in this case, no follow-on contract is created.
Search for legal transactions and assign them to a contract.
You can also display the legal transactions associated with a contract. For more information on the legal transactions, see the documentation for Legal Transactions.

Manage Purchase Orders (F0842A)

The figure displays the Manage Purchase Orders app viewing an individual purchase order.
Purpose
With this app, you can create and manage purchase orders to ensure that you get the ordered items on time, at the correct location, and in the required quantity. As a purchaser, you can manually order materials as well as services. The list of purchase orders that is displayed is based on the header level of the purchase order (PO), so the information shown relates to the entire PO. On the overview, you can immediately see the number of overdue items for each PO. The following item categories are supported: consignment, standard, subcontracting, and third party. The following product type groups are supported: material and service.
Key Features
Create a new purchase order.
Jump into the details of a specific purchase order to review it.
See details for ‘Advanced’ Purchase Orders.
When you click on the icon ‘Advanced’ Purchase Order, you can see a list of unsupported features for each purchase order. Because these features are not supported in the Fiori app, you can only edit or display the purchase order using the classic apps (Change Purchase Order – Advanced and Display Purchase Order – Advanced). You can click on each unsupported feature to see which database entries are filled and therefore prevent you from using the Fiori app.
Edit an existing purchase order. Changes you can make to an existing purchase order depend on the status.
Use the button Withdraw from Approval to cancel the approval process for a specific purchase order, provided that you have the required authorization for changing purchase orders. You can then make changes to the purchase order and submit it again for approval.
Create, edit, and display additional information to your suppliers in the form of texts in the Notes section.
Note
You cannot edit texts containing formatting (SAPscript) using the Fiori app. Changing formatted texts that were created using the classic UI technology (SAP GUI for HTML) is not possible with the Fiori app.Add attachments to the PO.
Save your personal filter criteria as a variant.
View output items.
Create a new item for lean services.
You can enter master data under Material (which must be of the product type group Service), or you specify the required services by entering a short text and choosing the product type group Service.
Create limit items for lean services.
You can define a value limit for unplanned services, that is, services that cannot be specified in detail at the time of ordering. This also applies to services that are of such low value that you want to reduce the administrative efforts involved in processing purchase orders and follow-on documents. You can define both an expected value and an overall limit. For a limit item, you must enter a time period. The services must be specified later in the service entry sheet when the exact services and their price and quantity are recorded.
Create limit items for materials.
You can also create limit items when ordering unplanned materials (using free-text entries). For a limit item, you must enter a time period. Goods receipts are not possible in this case. The invoices are posted directly with reference to the purchase order, provided that the specified value limit is not exceeded. Please note that you cannot create limit items for materials with master data records.
Use the subcontracting process.
Subcontracting is a form of procurement where the required product is manufactured by a supplier (in this case the subcontractor) to whom you provide certain components. You can provide these components either directly from one of your plants, or indirectly through one of your suppliers. Using the components you provide, the subcontractor completes the manufacturing process and delivers the required product to the ordering party.
Exclude a purchase order from Intrastat reporting.
In exceptional cases, you can decide to exclude a purchase order from Intrastat reporting, even if the formal requirements for Intrastat reporting are met.
Copy single items as well as entire purchase orders.
Add from document.
You can reorder purchase order items with reference to one of the following purchasing documents that already exist:
A purchase order item
An info record
A purchase contract item
If the field supplier is not filled in the header of the purchase order, then all the data from the referenced purchasing document is taken over.
Use the Info Record Update checkbox under the section Source of Supply. If you select this checkbox, the info record is automatically updated with data from the purchase order when you choose Save.
Assign a purchase order item to several accounts. You can distribute costs on a percentage basis.
Create several schedule lines.
Use the functionality provided by the flexible workflow. When you create a purchase order, a simulation of the workflow is triggered. If errors occur, you can use the error messages to analyze the issues.
See details concerning the approval process, such as the processors involved and the status, under Approval Details.
See all changes made to a purchase order (both on header and on item level) in the corresponding printout document of the purchase order.
Use the checks related to International Trade Compliance. Please note that you cannot create a purchase order that violates one of these checks.
Use the features available for Budget Availability Control, which are also integrated in other apps for logistics processes (namely Manage Purchase Requisitions and Manage Supplier Invoices) that result in cost postings.
Note
Please note that you can no longer change the account assignment of a purchase order item if a service entry sheet has been created for this item.Note
If the extended material number has been activated in your back-end system, it is automatically displayed in the Material field in this app.
App Extensibility: Manage Purchase Orders (F0842A)

Manage / Create Supplier Invoice (F0859)

The figure displays the Create Supplier Invoices app.
Purpose
With this app you can create and display a supplier invoice based on the received document. You can specify the purchase order items to which your supplier invoice relates, and you can reference documents to which multiple accounts are assigned. If you select the Simulate or Post function, the system compares the quantity and amount data of each supplier invoice item with the data of the related purchase order item. If goods-receipt-based invoice verification has been defined for a purchase order item, the system compares the supplier invoice data with the related goods receipt data. If the deviation is outside defined tolerances, the invoice is posted, but the invoice is automatically blocked for payment. If the system determines the responsible person, an approval process is initiated. You can use the Supplier Invoices List app to display supplier invoices. In the detail view, you can release or reverse a blocked supplier invoice.
Key Features
Create a supplier invoice. You can also create credit memos, subsequent credits and subsequent debits.
Choose See More in the General Information section to edit, for example, the Assignment, Item Text, and Header Text fields. After posting, the system transfers these texts into the corresponding Financial Accounting document.
In addition, you can change the exchange rate that is displayed according to the customizing settings. You can change the exchange rate until you create an invoice item. If you specify a purchase order reference with fixed exchange rate and you create the invoice item, the exchange rate is created automatically for the invoice.
Create all relevant items for one or multiple purchase order references for which the invoice was received. You can deselect items that are not relevant. In addition, you can create a supplier invoice without a purchase order reference. In this case, complete missing data for the invoicing party, currency, and baseline date.
Add G/L account items.
Enter and check the tax data.
Edit payment terms.
Enter unplanned delivery costs.
Add multiple attachments.
Simulate, hold, or post the supplier invoice.
The Simulate function allows you to display the account movements before posting the document. On the Simulation view, you can also switch the simulation currency, and post the supplier invoice.
One clerk can park the invoice document and another clerk can complete the process and post it.
Reduce the invoice
If you receive a supplier invoice with a deviation either in the amount, or quantity, or both, you can document this difference in the detail data of the invoice item by choosing the Reduce Invoice function. For a reduced invoice, the app posts an invoice and a credit memo at the same time, and creates a letter of complaint.
Display the purchase order history.
You can display the purchase order history, that means the details of good receipts effected or invoices received in respect of a referenced purchase order item.
Output specific business documents.
You can output specific business documents that are created when supplier invoices are created, for example letters of complaint to the invoicing party (invoice reduction).
App Extensibility: Manage / Create Supplier Invoices (0859)

Monitor Purchase Order Items (F2358)

The figure displays the app, Monitor Purchase Order Items.
Purpose
With this app, you can display purchase order items and monitor their status, using filter criteria such as purchase order, material group, material, supplier, plant, and delivery forecast. You can also choose a purchase order item to view its item level information. You can enable your business users to predict the delivery date of purchase order items, as proposed by SAP Predictive Analytics Integrator (PAI). The regression algorithm in SAP PAI is used to predict whether delivery of purchase order items happens earlier than scheduled, on time or with a delay. Based on the predicted delivery date, your business users can take necessary decisions. For more information on SAP PAI, see Predictive Scenario for Monitoring Purchase Order Items.
Key Features
View purchase order items based on filter criteria.
Click on a purchase order item to view its item level information.
Predict the delivery date of purchase orders using the Predict Delivery Date link.

Manage Workflows for Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services (F3173)

The figure displays the app, Manage Workflows for Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services.
Purpose
With this app, you can use the flexible workflow for service entry sheets, enabling you to define your own approval process. The flexible workflow allows you to use either the automatic, one-step, or even multi-step approval. The app also provides several options for determining the approver, such as the assignment of an approver by using a role, but you can also assign specific users or even teams as approvers.
Key Features
Add a new workflow or copy an existing workflow and modify it according to your requirements. You can configure the workflow as follows:
Define properties such as a description and a validity period.
Under the section Preconditions define start preconditions for the new workflow. These criteria must be fulfilled for the workflow to start. You can define, for example:
The maximum or minimum total net amount of the service entry sheet
The accounting types Cost Center or Project
Add one or more Step Sequences. For each step sequence you define recipients and step-specific preconditions. You can define the order of the steps, and you can delete unnecessary steps.
Accordingly, you can assign a recipient to each step, for example by using the role Person Responsible for Cost Center, or you can assign a specific user as the approver.
Note
If you use either the role Person Responsible for Cost Center or Person Responsible for Project as the recipient, please use either the accounting type Cost Center or Project, respectively, as the corresponding precondition. This ensures that the workflow can find the correct approver.
Activate or Deactivate a workflow
Once you have activated the workflow, you can copy, deactivate or delete it, but you can no longer edit and change it.
Define the Order in which the start preconditions of the existing workflows are checked.
If you have defined several workflows, the start preconditions are checked in the order you have defined. As soon as the start preconditions for a workflow are met, this workflow is used. This ensures that only one workflow in the list of your defined workflows is started, even if several workflows have matching preconditions.
Use the feature Automatic Release of Service Entry Sheet delivered by SAP as a fallback option. By default, this workflow is activated.
Note
We recommend to define this workflow as the last one in the order. So, it is started if none of the other workflows applies. You can also configure your own workflow that is to be used as a fallback option.
Delete a workflow if it is no longer required.
Additional Information
You can search for specific users to be assigned as approvers; only such users are found by the system which have the authorization for using the app My Inbox - Approve Service Entry Sheets and for updating service entry sheets.
You can also assign specific teams as approvers, defined for example by a material group, by a purchasing group, or by a plant. You can define these teams along with tasks and functions using the app Manage Teams and Responsibilities.
The workflow is neither started for externally approved service entry sheets, nor for timesheets. These documents are released independently of the workflow process.
Behavior if no workflow is configured or if none of the active workflows meet the defined preconditions.
No workflow is configured or none of the active workflows meet the defined start preconditions.
An error occurs in the following cases:
If you have not configured any workflow at all
If all workflows have been deactivated (including the Automatic Release of Service Entry Sheet)
If the service entry sheet to be approved does not match any of the start preconditions
None of the step-specific preconditions are met.
As soon as the start preconditions for a workflow are met, this workflow is used. The steps are processed in the order you have defined. However, if none of the step-specific preconditions apply for a service entry sheet and consequently the steps do not apply, the service entry sheet is released automatically. To avoid this, you must ensure that the start preconditions you define match the step sequences you define.
Agent Determination by BAdI
You can implement your own BAdI in SAP S/4HANA Cloud to define rules for the agent determination. To do so, proceed as follows:
Open the app Custom Fields and Logic. (To do so, you require the role SAP_BCR_CORE_EXT.)
Go to the tab Custom Logic and create a new implementation. Use the business context Simplified Workflow For Procurement, the definition description Workflow Agent determination, and define your own implementation description. The implementation ID is then generated automatically. Then choose Create.
As the filter condition, use businessobject = ServiceEntrySheet.
Under Draft Logic, implement your code containing your own rules for the agent determination.
The following input parameters are available:
PURCHASINGDOCUMENT - Purchasing Document Number
WORKFLOWSCENARIO - Workflow Scenario (Task ID)
As the output parameter, use the following parameter to which the user IDs should be appended.
APPROVERLIST - Actual Agent of Work Item
Choose Save Draft and then choose Publish so that the implementation can be actively used.
Note
You can create only one implementation for each filter.
Configuration
To activate the flexible workflow functionality, you must make the required settings using the configuration app Activate Flexible Workflow for Service Entry Sheets under Manage Your Solution > Configure Your Solution.
Effects on Existing Data
Once the flexible workflow has been activated, the approver of the service entry sheet is no longer maintained in the app Manage Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services. After the activation of the flexible workflow, the following cases may occur depending on the approval status of the service entry sheets at the time of activation of the flexible workflow:
The service entry sheet is in status In Process: You must remove the input from the field Personnel Number before you can send the service entry sheet for approval.
The service entry sheet is in status In Approval: The person responsible (as defined in the field Personnel Number) can approve or reject the service entry sheet using the app My Inbox.
The service entry sheet is in status Approved: The person responsible is no longer displayed in the app Manage Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services.
Monitor Log for Service Entry Sheet Generation (F1487)

The figure displays the Monitor Log for Service Entry Sheet Generation app.
Purpose
With this app you can view the errors that occurred, for example, during the generation of service entry sheets from approved timesheets or during the import from Microsoft Excel sheets. The log lists both the errors that prevented the creation of service entry sheets and the errors that prevented the posting of goods receipts for successfully created service entry sheets.
Additional Information
If an error has occurred during thegeneration of service entry sheets from timesheets:
As soon as the errors have been eliminated, the documents are created on the next run of the application job Automatic Creation of Service Entry Sheets from Time Recording that is available in the app Schedule Purchasing Jobs - Advanced.
Note
Use this application job only if an error occurred during the automatic generation of service entry sheets from timesheets and you want to restart the creation of failed service entry sheets or goods receipts.If an error has occurred during the import of service entry sheets from Excel sheets:

You can also specify the required details on the preview screen when creating the follow-on documents. Note the following:
After you save a contract, you can maintain additional details using the Manage Purchase Contracts app. You can also investigate errors in a contract draft by navigating to the Manage Purchase Contracts app directly.
You can publish the RFQs and send them directly to the suppliers. If you use the sourcing process that is integrated with SAP Ariba Sourcing, then you can send the RFQs directly to SAP Ariba Sourcing. Additionally, if you want to make any changes to the RFQs before publishing them, you can choose to process the RFQs and make the required changes in the Manage RFQs app.
Whether you can create one or several contracts depends on the purchasing organization and purchasing group associated with the selected purchase requisition items.
Whether you can create one or several purchase orders depends on the supplier, purchasing organization, and purchasing group associated with the selected purchase requisition items.
Assign sources of supply, such as purchasing info records, contracts, scheduling agreements, or suppliers, to the purchase requisition items.
Additionally, based on the suppliers operational scores and the price per item offered by the suppliers, you can compare the available sources of supply and assign them to the purchase requisition items.
Navigate to the Manage Purchase Requisitions - Professional app to display and modify the details of purchase requisition items.
Display the total purchasing spend of various sources of supply.
Note
If the total purchasing spend of a source of supply exceeds the currency length of 13 digits including 2 decimal values, the total purchasing spend defaults to the maximum possible value. That is, if the total purchasing spend exceeds 99999999999.99 for any currency, the total displayed spend value is 99999999999.99, which is the maximum possible value.Display the business card of the supplier

Manage Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services (F2027)

The figure displays the app, Manage Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services.
Purpose
With this app, you can create service entry sheets to record that the ordered services have been performed. You can change these service entry sheets and send them for approval. You can search for service entry sheets and you can sort, filter and group the list of the service entry sheets, for example, by supplier or by reference purchase order. - "Lean Services" are a type of service that can be purchased in the same way as materials using SAP Fiori apps, such as Manage Purchase Orders, Manage Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services, and Create Supplier Invoice. These apps enable a lean process of service procurement that is equivalent to the procurement of materials.
Key Features
Create or change a service entry sheet with reference to a purchase order
Each service entry sheet references one purchase order. This purchase order can consist of standard items for planned lean services or limit items for unplanned lean services. After entering the purchase order number all purchase order items for lean services are added as service entry sheet items by the system.
Record planned services with reference to purchase order standard items.
In the service entry sheet, you complete the data of the purchase order by entering the stated quantity and the date of performance.
Record unplanned services with reference to purchase orderlimit items.
In the service entry sheet, you record the services by entering an item description, the performance date, the stated quantity with its unit of measure, and the price per unit.
The system displays the expected value of the referenced purchase order limit item. It issues a warning if the expected value is exceeded and an error if the (aggregated) stated amount exceeds the overall limit.
Maintain the account assignment in the service entry sheet
You can define the account assignment for a service item in the purchase order or in the service entry sheet. Even if already defined in the purchase order item you can change the account assignment in the service entry sheet - with a few restrictions.
Attach documents and add links on header level and on item level of the service entry sheet
Initiate or cancel the approval process
When you have recorded all services you can send the service entry sheet for approval. Now, the service entry sheet gets status In Approval and is automatically displayed in the approver´s My Inbox. For more information on the approver determination, see the section Additional Information below.
If you want to edit it again, you can choose Withdraw from Approval as long as the service entry sheet is in status In Approval and edit it again.
Once the service entry sheet has been approved by an authorized person, a goods receipt document is created by the system and a corresponding invoice can be created, checked and posted.
If the service entry sheet has been approved and no follow-on documents exist other than the goods receipt document, you can choose Revoke Approval and edit it again.
Additional Information: Approval of Service Entry Sheets
The responsible persons to approve or reject the service entry sheets are determined in the app Manage Workflows for Service Entry Sheets - Lean Services (flexible workflow). They are specified by the preconditions of the applicable workflow definitions

Purpose
With this app, you can post the receipt of goods with reference to the purchase order with which you ordered the goods. If a material is delivered for a purchase order, it is important for all the departments involved that the goods receipt entry in the system references this purchase order. This app supports you, for example, as a warehouse clerk in your daily work.
Key Features
Post the receipt of goods with reference to a purchase order, which contains order items for stock material (procurement for stock).
Post the receipt of goods with reference to a purchase order, which contains order items that display single or multiple account assignments (procurement for direct consumption). With multiple account assignments, you can distribute the purchasing cost among different cost centers or projects, for example.
Note
You define the account assignment distribution together with the accounting information and ordered quantity in the purchase order. You can make these settings for valuated and non-valuated goods receipt.Note
The app only displays the account assignments as further information. In the case of partial goods receipt the app does not re-calculate the distributed quantity.Post the receipt of goods with reference to vendor consignment stock.
Post the receipt of goods with reference to a purchase order into the goods receipt (GR) blocked stock. Depending on your role, you can release items from GR blocked stock into the unrestricted-use stock, for example.

Status Held: You can navigate to the supplier invoice. You can choose the Edit function, and you can change the data and simulate, hold, or post the supplier invoice.
Status Draft: You can navigate to the supplier invoice. You can complete the detail data and simulate, hold, post, or discard the supplier invoice. Supplier invoices with the status Draft are sent out by suppliers using the Business Network or external applications.
A supplier invoice with status Draft can contain incomplete items, if the data retrieved automatically from an external supplier invoice is erroneous or incomplete. You can correct an incomplete item, and you can also assign an purchase order item. After checking the incomplete items, you can trigger the creation of real invoice items. The incomplete items are discarded when a real invoice document is created. You cannot delete an incomplete item.
Status Draft (Personal): Supplier invoices with the status Draft (Personal) are created whenever you start entering an invoice with the Create Supplier Invoice tile. In the supplier invoice list, the supplier invoices with status Draft (Personal) are only displayed for your user. The status Draft (Personal) allows you to open the invoice draft in several views at the same time.
For invoices that are Blocked for Payment, the following information is displayed in the Payment Block tab of the invoice detail view:
You can view the contact details for the purchaser and supplier.
You can see the timeline for the invoice, including the creation date, posting date, cash discount dates, and payment due date.
You can see payment block statistics related to that specific supplier and company code, including the amount of blocked invoices by block reason, the number of blocked invoices by block reason, and the total number of payment blocks by block reasons.
You can view the prediction for critical cash discount situations.
In case of blocked invoice items that are relevant for a cash discount, the system makes a prediction in the Payment Block section. Based on data records of past goods receipts from the supplier, the system indicates whether the goods receipt can probably be expected on time in relation to the cash discount due date. The prediction may help you to take the appropriate measures if the cash discount is at risk. In this case you can, for example, send a reminder to your supplier.
