SAP ETM –FI PERSPECTIVE MOORTHY ESAKKY Lead Consultant RP Techsoft SAP – ETM Business Process Time Based Equipment Process – Own Equipments Time Based Equipment Process – Rental Equipments Performance Based Equipment Process ETM Non-Consumable Material Process ETM Consumable Material Process ETM Project Budget Report Time Based Equipment Process • Equipment that has been defined as time-based, for example a crane, is usually commissioned for a specific length of time on a specific usage site. • This period of time is always settled in days for time-based equipment. • The shipping document is used as basis for settlement for timebased equipment. • The PBE document is not taken into account for time-based equipment. • If it were, settlement would take place twice – once using the shipping document and once using the PBE document. • Time-based equipment can be an equipment item or multipart equipment. Performance Based Equipment Process -PBE Equipment that has been defined as performance-based, for example an excavator, is usually settled in hours on the basis of the PBE document. The performance-based equipment document is used as basis for settlement for performance-based equipment. If no PBE document has been created for the complete commissioning period, the shipping document is used as a basis for settlement. PBE is usually expensive equipment and managed in stock as an equipment item. To keep the equipment costs as comprehensive as possible, it is usually a good idea to create a separate PM order administrator (cost collector) for each equipment item. ETM Non-Consumable Material Process • This business process is used if standard material, called nonconsumable material e.g. site facilities, ladders etc. has to be shipped from a warehouse to a recipient (debtor master with enhanced ETM view) together with equipment in one ETM shipping document or has to be taken out of a magazine • In both ways, non-consumable material is given back to the magazine or the warehouse via ETM shipping document after it has been used. This saves time and costs for transports and administrative effort. Magazines are a kind of “little project warehouses “ on big construction sites/projects. • The process in ETM is called “sales and repurchase of non consumable material” to and from a recipient/project - to and from a warehouse. This means, construction sites “buy” non consumable material for a fixed price and after the non consumable material is given back to either the magazine or the warehouse a reduced value will be credited to the project (automated repurchase process). ETM Non-Consumable Material Process • When the periodically settlement takes place, projects get debited for the received material and credited for the returned material. So the project pays a kind of provision fee for the usage of the material. • Generally the settlement of non consumable material is based on quantity and not on the time period like time based equipment! • The cost charging and automated repurchase of non-consumable material is fully automated handled via ETM! ETM Consumable Material Process • This business process is used for shipping standard material, called consumable material (e.g. concrete or nails) together with equipment in one ETM shipping document to reduce transport- and handling costs for projects in construction industry. • The cost charging is done by SAP standard Sales and Distribution (SD) and Material Management (MM). • ETM only overtakes - logistically seen - the delivery of consumable material. • No settlement takes place in ETM for consumable materials! Time Based Equipment Process • Create ETM Requisition Note • Create Acquisition Shipping Document and Requirement Note • Assign Equipment and Create Shipping Document • Return Equipment Back to the Construction Yard/Warehouse (Create Second Shipping Document) Time Based Equipment Process • • • • CEM Sales Order Settlement (Create Sales Order) Log for CEM SD Settlement Internal Cost Allocation External Cost Allocation Time-Based Equipment Process Including ThirdParty Rental Equipment • Create ETM Requisition Note • Create Purchasing Requisition for Rental Equipment • Convert Purchase Requisitions to Purchase Order • Posting Goods Receipt • Invoice Verification • Create Equipment • Create Equipment BOM Performance Based Equipment Process ETM equipment encompasses objects such as vehicles, equipment, machinery, scaffolding, shuttering and tools that have to be sent and managed Organization Structure in ETM Controlling area Company Code Plant Sales organization Distribution channel Division Purchase organization Storage Loc Equipment – Eg., Tower crane SK-C 200 Non-Consumable material – Ex., Aluminum standing ladder Consumable Material – Ex., Metal blade for saw Business Role • • • • Warehouse Clerk Project Manager ECO (DIMP) Project Manager ECO ECO Equipment Adminitrator (DIMP) Time Based Equipment Process (Internal) • Create Requisition Note(Availability check)\ Create ETM Requisition Note Create Acquisition Shipping Document and Requirement Note Assign Equipment and Create Shipping Document This step is to assign the Equipment to the Requisition Note and create the shipping document to the graphical planning board.
