Note Note

In contracts, you are only allowed to maintain header conditions for the first outline level. These are copied to all other outline levels, but cannot be changed there.

End of the note.

Updating of Service Master Conditions Through Conditions in Purchasing Documents

You can update existing conditions for a service master record through the conditions you are maintaining in a current purchasing document (requisition, quotation, purchase order). That is to say, the already existing conditions in the service master record are overwritten.

Note Note

In the case of a purchase requisition, the service master conditions are updated for a service. In the case of a quotation or purchase order, the service master conditions are updated for a vendor with or without plant.

End of the note.

You can set the following indicators for the client and purchasing organization levels in Customizing for External Services Management under Source Determination and Default Values :

  • Client :

  • Set condition update indicator as default value in requisitions

  • Set condition update indicator as default value in quotations

  • Set condition update indicator as default value in purchase orders

  • Purchasing organization:

  • Set condition update indicator as default value in quotations

  • Set condition update indicator as default value in purchase orders

The system adopts this indicator from Customizing and inserts it in all the service lines of the document. However, you may decide that the conditions for certain services are to remain unchanged. In this case, cancel the indicator in the relevant service line of the purchasing document.
