DIP Profile configuration

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I am working an implementation project , has a business requirement, company A doing business with various customers

the customers are owning land

company A owns drilling equipments

company A has an agreement with customer drilling the land to recover the oil

company A deploy equipment, manpower and required consumables , like cement....

when the work starts, phase by phase billing happens

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

here i have problem of mapping this scenario

I thought of mapping this through resource related billing

creation of contract - debit memo request(DP91 ) - billing

problem here is

what are the materials here, equipment is a material?  and manpower is material? for cementing purpose i am using cement and gravel (BOM)

1. how do i accommodate the following cases

BOM (Cement , binding chemicals , gravels and water)

Equipment (Rig)

Manpower (Engineers)

2. How do i bill them since those are service items?

Please give a break through for my project

Hi Pratheep

1.You have maintain three service material master(1.Material 2. Equipment and 3.Labour) , this three materials has assign to CJ20N (project system ) and DIP profile(ODP1) from materials determination.

you have discuss with FI Consultant for COSTING(Set ID)

2. Create Contract Order(VA41) , Reference to contract order Create Condition Records(VK11), then go to DP91 after Billing Request Generate DMR(VA02), reference DMR, create the Billing (VF01).

Hi Christin,

I have created a contract , there i have entered only one material - contract material

In ODP1 , material determination has given three materials as follows

1. RRB_Material

2. RRB _ labour

3. RRB _ Equipment

while creating DP91 how does system identifies equipment lines is going to bill?

Thanks & regards,

Hi Pratheep,

The approach of using DIP functionality works out for your scenario. The Consumables (Cement, Gravel) can be created as materials. Manpower can be created as "Service" materials. Think your equipment comes for rent - May be you can go for a rental contract.

Please browse through internet content in this topic and come up with any specific queries.

Also, there is a SAP Note (301117) specifically explaining the DIP Profile concept which would be of good help to understand the basic concepts.

Hi,

1. Create Contract with Material DIEN, Say example for 1Yr.

Billing would be as per Billing plan is for example: quarterly or Half Yearly.

2.Configure RRB Profile

• In RRB, Create Machine as One service material
• Create Man power as one service material.

*Please post this thread in EAM space. Hope you will get possible response.

Hi

Though I am not an "Expert" but still I want to give you a suggestion.

Did you check milestone billing? For these type of transactions there are milestone and periodic billing in SAP SD.

For selling service items you need to open a material with material type DIEN. We use this material type for services. For these materials we don't create delivery order but just sale order and invoice. For more details you can Google it.

I think you can do this without using resource related billing. If there is some specific requirement for using RRB then please come up with that requirement.
