Subcontracting
1 PurposeThe MM Subcontracting process involves sending raw components to a vendor for specific manufacturing processes and receiving the value-added finished material back into inventory.
A subcontract purchase requisition is either generated via the Material Requirements Planning (MRP) process or manually by a requestor. A Purchaser validates the accuracy of the purchase requisition and converts it into a purchase order. The purchase order is subject to approval based on predefined parameters prior to being issued to a vendor.
The consumption of sent components is recorded upon receipt of the value-added finished material. The vendor sends the invoice for the services provided which is paid during the normal payment cycle
On goods delivery, the scenario focuses on the following activities:
Purchase order creation based on a scheduled purchase requisition created by last MRP run
Optional: manual purchase order creation
Purchase order approval (if required)
Outbound delivery
Goods issue for delivery and shipment to subcontractor.
On goods receipt, the scenario focuses on the following activities:
Goods receipt for purchase order delivered by subcontractor
Component reservations and consumption of component quantities as provision of material
Invoice receipt by line item
Invoice verification and validation of tax expenses
Outgoing payment
As of enhancement package 4, you can post the real-time consumption of components. This can be useful in situations where the subcontracting process lasts longer, and you want to more precisely track component usage by subcontractors.
The necessary steps for posting in-time consumption are covered in this document.
To use this feature, you must make additional settings in Customizing and create additional master data. For more information, see step 4.9 in this document and also the appendix in the configuration guide 138_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc

2 Prerequisites
2.1 Master Data and Organizational DataSAP Best Practices Standard Values
Essential master and organizational data was created in your ERP system in the implementation phase, such as the data that reflects the organizational structure of your company and master data that suits its operational focus, for example, master data for materials, vendors, and customers.
This master data usually consists of standardized SAP Best Practices default values, and enables you to go through the process steps of this scenario.
Additional Master Data (Default Values)
You can test the scenario with other SAP Best Practices default values that have the same characteristics.
Check your SAP ECC system to find out which other material master data exists.
Using Your Own Master Data
You can also use customized values for any material or organizational data for which you have created master data. For more information about creating master data, see the Master Data Procedures documentation.
Use the following master data in the process steps described in this document:

4.9 Posting In-time Consumption of Components (Optional Step)
If you do not want to perform steps for posting in-time consumption of components, go directly to the Receive Goods from Subcontracting PO step.
UseSince enhancement package 4, you can post in-time consumption components To use this, activate the business function LOG_MM_OM_1 (Outsourced Manufacturing). You can then post the consumption of Subcontracting components in-time (ongoing) before posting the final goods receipt.
This feature is useful when the subcontracting process takes a longer time and when you want to post a regular update of the stock situation of your subcontractor. The costs of the consumption are allocated in real time to an internal CO order. This CO has to be settled like any other production order during period-end closing.
The necessary additional configuration settings that must be done manually are described in the appendix of the configuration guide for this scenario. In the configuration guide an additional material S138 is created for this purpose.
You must perform this step before the goods receipt posting described in Receive Goods from Subcontracting PO using the master data modified/ created as described in the configuration guide appendix.
In this activity, the warehouse clerk receives a notification about the consumption of subcontracting components. The clerk then generates a goods issue referring to Subcontracting PO.
The controlling document can be viewed on the Production Order header by choosing Goto Documented Goods Movements.
PrerequisiteTo use the In-time Consumption Posting of subcontracting components, the flag RT-Consumption (Real-time-Consumption in the info record (View 'Purch.Org.Data 1) of the Subcontracting PO material must be set. If the flag RT-Consumption is set, the inbound delivery processing for Subcontracting PO's is not possible.
