SAP Procurement

Overview

16

Introduction

The Procurement application that was implemented by IES is the combination of a Requisition to Invoice process with the addition of Inventory Management functions.

17

Procurement Sub-Processes

Items in “red” are either not used, or are now being performed in SRM.

18

Master Data

Master Data:

Master Data is the foundation for Procurement. Its purpose is to control and manage the data containing attributes and characteristics for materials, services, and suppliers.

19

Requisitioning

Requisitioning:

When a material or a service is needed, a requisition is used.

Note: This process is no longer done in SAP R/3, but is now processed in SRM.

20

Sourcing

Sourcing:

Sourcing determines and maintains a list of suppliers for materials and services.

Using Master Data improves the efficiency and effectiveness of this sub-process.

21

Contracting

Contracting:

The Contracting sub process facilitates the establishment of contractual relationships with vendors and agencies for the purchase of materials and services.

22

Purchasing

Purchase Ordering:

Purchase Ordering consists of placing Purchase Orders with suppliers for materials and services, referencing requisitions, sourcing, and contracts.

23

Receiving

Receiving:

After Purchase Orders have been created, the Receiving process will manage the receipt of those materials, as well as manage the acceptance of services rendered.

24

Invoicing

Invoicing:

After materials or services are received, supplier invoices can be accepted and paid.

Supplier invoices will be posted in SAP R/3 for each PO, referencing Master Data as needed.

25

Inventory Management

Inventory Management:

Inventory Management controls inventory counts and the availability of items.

This includes materials issued, returns, transfers, and physical inventory counts.

Agency Contracts – PO Criteria

• A purchase order that is created against a contract includes definite quantity commitments, as well as definite dollar commitments at the time of the issuance of the order.

• A purchase order constitutes an authorization to the supplier to deliver the materials or services

Note: Purchase Orders are not a source of supply.

33


• The purchase order is an encumbered document.

• A validity period may exist.

• Actual delivery dates must be specified for the purchase.

• Account Assignment must be entered per line item.

• Purchase orders require a plant to be entered. Without proper authorization an agency-wide purchase is not possible for agencies that have multi-plants (for example, PennDOT, Public Welfare and Correctional Industries).

34


• The purchase order is used by agencies to order items from agency-wide or multiple agency contracts.

• Goods receipts and invoice payments are created with reference to a purchase order.

• Purchase quantity must be specified at the line-item and cannot be shared among lines.

Master Data

36

Master Data Introduction

Master Data (MD) manages all material and service information for Procurement and Finance for the Commonwealth.

Master Data is made up of master records, which contain the description of the material or service that is to be procured, as well as other general agency information.

Master Data is used throughout the Procurement process. It is the sub process that establishes the foundational data for all other sub processes in the Procurement process. In addition, it helps prevent duplicate data.

37

Master Data Introduction

• Material Master:

– Houses basic data about materials that are purchased, used, or otherwise managed by the Commonwealth.

• Vendor Master:

– Stores basic data about suppliers from which the Commonwealth purchases materials and services.

38

Display Vendor Record (XK03)

• This transaction allows the user to display all the information contained in a vendor’s master record, based on the vendor number. Use this transaction to research any aspect of the vendor’s master data.

• The XK03 transaction allows the user to see information in all screens. Note: The Commonwealth is not using the Withholding tax screen.

• The multiple screens and all the fields contained in each are displayed and structured in exactly the same sequence as if the user was creating or changing the vendor master record, except all fields are grayed-out as the user is in display-only mode.

39

Display Vendor Record (XK03)

Initial Display Screen

Note: End-User Procedures can be found at www.copacustomhelp.state.pa.us.

1. Use matchcode search to find the vendor number. Enter Company Code and Purchase Org.

2. The boxes in these areas allow the user to select which screens to view.

3. Select the Enter icon when done to view the vendor’s information.

40

Display Material (MM03)

• Material Master Record

– Contains all information relative to a material: physical characteristics, finance account, MRP, purchasing, inventory, storage, etc.

• With this transaction the user can display a material master record as it currently exists in the SAP system.

41


• The types of information contained for the material include:

– Material Description

– Unit of Measure

– Storage location stocks

– Material Valuation

– Purchasing information

– MRP (material requirements planning)

42


To display material master information, use transaction MM03.

•enter your material number

•Select the Select Views button

• A separate dialog box will appear.

•In the dialog box, select Basic Data 1, Purchasing, and Accounting 1.

•Select the green check at the bottom of the dialog box.

If you are running MRP, you would select the views listed above in addition to the MRP 1, 2, and 3.

43


When you select the green check, the dialog box shown below will appear. Enter your plant and select the green check.

44


This will display the information for the material. By selecting the tabs at the top, you can move through the different views.

CRP Processing

46

CRP Processing

• Learning Objectives:

Understand how Contractor Responsibility Program (CRP) entries and documentation are tracked in SAP

Understand the different reasons for creating a CRP entry against a vendor

47

CRP Processing

• Definitions:

– Contractor Responsibility Program (CRP) – repository of information on contractors to ensure their competence

– Commonwealth CRP Oversight Committee – committee that oversees the CRP

– Performance Issues – vendor has not lived up to contractual duties (for example, late deliveries and improper conduct)

48

CRP Processing

• Obligations – delinquencies and liabilities owed by vendor to Commonwealth.

• Clearance Certificate – documents issued by Revenue and/or Labor & Industry allowing an agency to use a CRP vendor for a specific time period.

• Designated Senior Manager – senior level agency employee selected by agency head to carry out agency’s responsibilities under this management directive

* For a complete listing of definitions, please see Management Directive 215.9 Amended (April 16, 1999)

49

Create CRP Entry (ZMCRP1)

• Process

– Purchaser uses Transaction Code ZMCRP1 to create CRP entry

– Entry is a ‘draft’ until approved by Designated Senior Manager

– Only the original creator and the approver will be able to see the CRP entry when it is in ‘draft’

50


• Purchaser needs to manually create a CRP entry for a contracted vendor because one of the following reasons:

– Performance issue (i.e., late deliveries, improper conduct, etc)

– Terminated contract

– Ineligibility for contract award

• Most vendor obligations (delinquencies and liabilities) owed the Commonwealth are automatically transmitted from systems in Revenue and Labor & Industry into SAP. Therefore, no manual CRP entry is required.

51


Displayed to the right is the initial screen for creating a CRP entry. You must complete the required fields (Phone, Email, Approver, Plant, Vendor No. & select CRP type), and select the execute icon.

52


This will bring up the next screen. Complete the required fields ( Purchasing Document, Reason Code, Vendor Status, Description) and select the save icon.

53

Display CRP Entry (ZMCRP3)

• This transaction is used to check CRP status of vendor and may be done anytime.

• Process– Purchaser uses the following steps to display CRP entries against the

vendor• Transaction Code: ZMCRP3

• Search Criteria: Vendor’s name*

• CRP Status: Approved**

*Purchaser can also display CRP entries by “Original Preparer” and/or “Plant”. However, using Vendor only is recommended because additional terms may make search too narrow.

**Purchaser can also display CRP entries that have been “resolved.”

54Select on the Execute icon


Below is the initial display screen. Enter the vendor and if it is a draft, approved, or resolved CRP check. (Use of plant is not recommended because you want to see all plants to see if the vendor has an issue. If you enter your plant, you restrict it from showing any information posted by another plant.)

62

Contracts (Outline Agreements)

There are a number of different contract types to accommodate the needs of both Statewide and Agency contracts in SAP. Generally these will be:

Value Based – Used if the total value to be ordered during the validity period of the Contract is know in advance.

Quantity Based – Used if the total quantity of all release orders (POs) issued against the Contract is not to exceed a certain predefined quantity.

Note: This has changed with the implementation of SRM, they are no longer defined as Value Based or Quantity Based.

63

Contract Approvals

After the Contract is created and saved, it is automatically routed for the appropriate approvals.

64

Contract Conditions

Contract Conditions:

Maintains current pricing, discounts, freight charges, and other price data by Contract.

Requisitioning

70

Overview of Requisitioning, Sourcing, and Purchasing

• Requisitions are the beginning of the procurement process.

– Requisitions in SAP are created by two (2) ways: SAP transaction code ME51N and MRP processing

– A requisitioner identified a need for material or services

71

Overview of Requisitioning, Sourcing and Purchasing

• Sourcing identifies the suppliers available to satisfy the procurement needs.

• Planned orders created from MRP run are converted into requisitions to begin the procurement process.

72

Requisitioning, Sourcing and Purchasing

Learning Objectives:

Understand how to create purchase requisitions from planned orders.

Understand how a requisition is created manually and used

73

Create Purchase Requisition (ME51N)

• A purchase requisition is used to initiate the procurement of materials not included in MRP (or Design and Construction services for CPA)

• Purchase requisitions can later be converted into purchase orders (POs).

• The only requisitions that should be created in R/3 are for inventoried items.

• Requisitions for MRP can be changed or displayed in R/3.

74


• Use this transaction to create new requisitions for inventoried items.

• Menu Path

• Transaction code: ME51N

Purchasing

81

Assign & Process Purchase Requisitions (ZME57)

• Assign Automatically:– If a current contract exists, then the requisition would be

assigned to the contracted vendor as the source of supply. If only one contract exists, that vendor will be assigned automatically. If there is more than one contracted vendor, the buyer will choose the contract to be utilized. The PO will include the reference contract and requisition in its document history.

• Assign manually:– If no contract exists, the buyer can select any vendor that

supplies the materials or services as the source of supply.

82


• Assign Automatically

– If a contract exists for the material, you would assign automatically to assign to a contract.

Transaction Code: ZME57

83


Below is the initial screen for ZME57. Enter the Purchasing Group, the Scope of List (ZREQVAL – to see requisition value), and your plant, then select execute.

84

Assign & Process Purchase Requisitions (ZME57)This will bring up a list of requisition line items awaiting processing.

Assign Automatically: To assign to a contract, select the checkbox to the left of the line item, then select assign automatically. The system will check for a contract that might exist. As long as the correct information was on the requisition, it will assign automatically. However, if one thing on the requisition is incorrect, you will need to change the requisition or assign manually.

Assign & Process Purchase Requisitions (ME57)

Assign Manually: To assign to a supplier manually, select the checkbox to the left of the line item, then select the Assign Manually. A dialog box will appear for you to enter the vendor number. If it does appear on a contract and wouldn’t assign automatically, you can also enter the contract and line item numbers in the dialog box. Select Assign Supply Source, this will enter the supplier’s name in ZME57 as shown on the next slide.

87


The vendor number has been assigned to the requisition. If you want to remove the assignment, you would select the Assignment button.

88

Overview of Purchasing

• A SAP purchase order can be created in several ways:– With reference to a contract (release orders)

– With reference to a requisition

– Without reference to any document

• Purchase orders cannot be created until a source of supply and a price have been established.

• Purchase orders that require approvals cannot be sent to the vendor until after the required approvals have been executed.

89

Overview of Purchasing

• Purchase orders can be created for both services and materials, and can be for both inventory items and expensed items.

• Purchase orders cannot be created for both contract and non-contract items, and cannot be created for items from multiple contracts.

• Purchase orders always require accounting information.

• Purchase orders are always encumbered.

90

Purchase Orders

Purchase Orders are used to place orders with suppliers for materials or services.

There are a number of types of Purchase Orders, including Standard, Emergency, Off-Contract, and Sole Source.

91

Purchase Order Approvals

All Purchase Orders over $5,000 will require at least one approval. (Due to the implementation of SRM, the threshold in SAP R/3 was not updated and still workflows at $3,000)

Approvals for Purchase Orders will be routed automatically to the appropriate approver via workflow when appropriate.

92

• This transaction is used to create a purchase order.


Menu Path: Logistics > Materials Management > Purchasing>

Purchase Order > Create > Vendor/Supplying Plant Known

Transaction Code: ME21N

Note: End-User Procedures can be found at www.copacustomhelp.state.pa.us.

93


The purchase order is divided into three sections: Header, Item Overview, and Item Detail. The Header and Item Detail are divided into sub-tabs and the Item Overview is designed like a spreadsheet.

Doc Type is Standard PO (New)

94


Above the Header are the Order Type, Vendor, and Doc Date (date defaults) which must be completed. The Header section contains information applicable to all line items contained on the purchase order. The tabs include: Delivery/Invoice, Conditions, Texts, Address (vendors), Communications Data, Partners, Additional Data (validity period), Org Data, Status, and Customer data.

96


– Encumbrance Information Text: used to store fund, cost center and G/L account numbers as well as the amount encumbered per fund. This field should also be used to enter the justification of the purchase and any special notes for internal use. This text will not print out on the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier.

– Shipping Instructions: used to enter any specific shipping instructions to supplier that relate to all items on the purchase order. This text will always copy from the contract. This text will be printed out in the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier.

97


– Terms of Payment: used to enter any type of special payments that need to be communicated to vendor. An example would be staggered payments. Note that this text is not used to establish the standard payment period for an invoice. This text will always copy from the contract.

– Vendor Memo Purchasing Org: copies from vendor master. This text will be printed out in the purchase order that will be sent to supplier.

– Confidential Terms of Payment Note: used for communication with the invoice processor. This text will always copy from the contract. This text will not be printed out in the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier, as it is confidential information that is simply stored here.

99

Purchase Order Item Texts

• Item texts are used to store information on a purchase order that will be applicable to a particular line item in the order. The following text have been defined for use by the Commonwealth:

– Item Text: used to store any special instructions and conditions to the supplier. If no attachment exists, this text will always copy from the contract. This text will be printed out in the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier.

100

Purchase Order Item Text

– Material PO Text: used to supply additional descriptive information for the material or service. This text will copy from the material master or service master record and will print out in the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier.

– Shipping Instructions: used to enter any specific shipping instructions to that supplier that apply to an individual item in the order. This text will always copy from the contract. This text will be printed out in the purchase order that will be sent to the supplier.

101

Change Purchase Order (ME22N)

• This transaction is used to change, cancel, delete and add an attachment to a purchase order.

• Some changes to a purchase order will require the order to go through another release strategy (re-approval), including a change to terms and conditions or an increase to price and/or quantity of greater than 10%. Certain other release thresholds may be surpassed because of an order change as well.

102

Adding Attachments to Purchase Orders

• Attachments can be added to orders via the change purchase order transaction (ME22N) only.

• Most document types can be added to a purchase order, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe Acrobat, or other documents that may be submitted by the vendor.

103

Purchase Order Amendments & Changes

• There is no version control for purchase order changes. Once the purchase order is changed only the latest version of the purchase order is displayed on the screen.

• A history of purchase order changes is recorded by the system so that a user can see who made changes and when the changes were made to the order. For each changed field the old value and new value will be recorded, with the exception of header and item texts. The time of the text changes and the user ID are recorded by the system, but not the old versus new entries.

104

Approval Process for Purchase Orders

• No approval is required for purchase orders of less than $5,000 in SAP. Document type is Standard PO (New)

• Any non-standard terms and conditions require additional approvals

• Different PO document types require specific approval strategies.

• For the Secretary of DGS, Sole Source Board and Treasury, approval notifications will be facilitated by workflow. All others will process approvals manually in SAP.

105

Purchase Order Document Types

• CPA1, CPA2, CPA3, and CPA4 are all construction type purchase orders. (used only by DGS)

• DGS – Purchase orders generated by DGS buyers on behalf of an agency. (used only by DGS)

• EP – Purchase orders that are generated for procurement of materials and services that are considered an “emergency”

• EX – Purchase orders that have been converted from legacy systems (no longer used)

106

Purchase Order Document Types

• NNB – Standard purchase orders for materials and services.

• POC – Purchase off-contract (When a purchase order is being created for materials or services that currently exist on contract, however, that contract is not being utilized)

• SSB – Sole Source Materials (materials only)

• SSD – Sole Source Services (services only)

• Most document types can be used to order both services and materials

• The purchase order document type is important as it will determine who is required to approve the purchase order.

107

Approve Purchase Order (ZME28)

• This transaction is used to approve a list of purchase orders that are ready for further procurement processing.

• Before a purchase order can be sent to the vendor, it must go through the approval process (release strategy).

Invoicing/Good Receipt

119

Overview of Invoice Entry

An invoice is created in the system in one of four ways:

1. Invoice entry by a Commonwealth employee (Comptrollers Office)

2. Vendor self-invoicing

3. Evaluated Receipt Settlement (ERS)

4. Invoicing Plan

120

Overview of Invoice Entry

• Suppliers will send paper invoices to the Comptroller’s office. The Comptroller Accounts Payable Unit (CAPU) enters the invoice into SAP R/3 with reference to the PO. If the person entering the invoice discovers an error (funds not available or the account doesn’t allow direct charges) the document will be parked in the system until the error is resolved. The parked document can later be retrieved and posted.

121

Overview of Invoice Entry and Processing

• When the invoice is posted and there is a three way match, it will be available for the next payment run. A three way match means PO price >= invoice price and goods receipt/service receipt qty >= invoice quantity.

• If the invoice price is > the PO price, the invoice will be blocked for payment with a Price block (Prc.)

Inventory Management Overview

141

Inventory Management Introduction

As with Receiving and Invoicing, there was a considerable change in the Inventory Management (IM) sub process.

It includes an extensive set of transactions, such as issuance to users, transfers/stock transports between locations, planning and replenishment, receipt, returns, scrapping/sampling, and physical inventory adjustments.

142

Inventory Management Components

Replenishment: automates the replenishment of stock based upon inventory strategies.

Physical Inventory: manages the recording and reconciliation of periodic physical inventory counts. Counts are taken on printed documents and then entered into the system. The counts are then matched with the book inventory stock levels in the system. Differences require a recount, approvals for unmatched counts, and adjustments.

Issues/Returns: The purpose of this component is to ensure accurate recording of issues from inventory (when items are used) and returns to inventory. Issues/Returns includes materials issues, scrapping/sampling, returns, and external issues.

143

Inventory Management Components

Transfers/Stock Transport Orders: will handle transferring materials between Commonwealth locations. This is the document that creates the demand from inventory from shopping cart.
