Sub-contracting Business Process For MRO

(Unserialized Parts-EHP4)
Definition:

Any kind of services like material/equipment sent out for repairing will be mapped in SAP through this type of
process.

Process At Glance:
The component to be sent to vendor is required to post storage location at damaged valuation & Maintenance
dept. will create Sub-Contracting Purchase Requisition entering line item as damaged component .Material
management people will convert this Purchase Requisition to Sub-contracting PO & add the service & spare
parts if required by vendor and they will issue component as well as spare parts to vendor. After completion
of repair work, Material management will receive the Serviced Component & payment will be done after
invoice verification. Service Entry Sheet will be done in two levels, the planner will update the Services & the
Maintenance manager will approve the services for further processing.

New Features 1) Subcontracting Indicator selecting the subcontracting indicator on the detail screen for

components. 2) Externally processed with subcontracting indicator 3) Together with the External Processing
control key, selecting this indicator results in the automatic creation of a purchase requisition for the
subcontracted work.
Material Provision Indicator
1) The material provision indicator (MPI) is used to identify the subcontracting type of a part. The following
indicators are provided:
2) Rework Material to Subcontractor (Value S in the SAP standard system) 3) Rework Material from
Subcontractor (Value X in the SAP standard system) 4) Subcontracting provided to the subcontractor as
consumables) (Initial in the SAP standard system)
Apart from the values Subcontracting, Rework Material to Subcontractor; and Rework Material from
Subcontractor, you cannot use any other MPI provided on component level of the maintenance order.
The following scenarios are possible for MPI:
Recursive repair
You send a part to the subcontractor, who returns it with the same material number: 1) You create the main
part with MPI Rework Material to Subcontractor, possibly with consumables. 2) You do not have to create the
returned part with MPI Rework Material from Subcontractor.
