Hi everybody,
our case is an Inter company third party subcontracting.
Plant A in company code 1000 sends Component X to Plant B in company code 2000.
Plant A asks his third party to send Component Y to Plant B.
Plant B assemble X and Y and deliver finished material Z to Plant A at last.
I proposed SAP standard scenario for third party subcontracting:
1- plant A creates PO (item category L) for material Z and vendor = 'Plant B'.
2- Plant A do transfer posting (ME2O) component X to Plant B. so X would be provided to vendor.
3- Plant A creates PO (third party) for component Y with delivery address = 'Plant B' and also set Plant B as SC Vendor.
4- when Plant B receives component Y, informs Plant A.
5- Plant A do GR based on PO ( third party). so component Y would be provided to vendor.
6- when Plant B sends finished material Z to Plant A, Plant A do GR based on PO (SC). SAP receive Z and consumes X and Y right off.
the Project team didn't accept my scenario for 2 reasons:
1- it is not sap best practice for intercompany subcontracting.
2- they said there is an extra GR in my scenario.I mean when plant A creates PO for third party, and Plant B do GR, the components must be provided to vendor Auto, and there is no need to do GR in plant A place.
please help me.
Does really SAP has another scenario for intercompany third party subcon?
