2.1.2.1 Maintenance Order: Additional Long Texts

With this function, you can add additional long texts for order operations and non-stock materials that you enter as components.

Required Business Function Simplified Management of EAM Functions 13 (LOG_EAM_SIMPLICITY_13)

Additional Details

For each order operation and each component, you can enter up to three additional long texts. The relevant buttons to open the text editor are available in the tables on the tab pages Operation Data and Materials. If you enter services as operations, you can enter the long texts on the External Data tab page. You can also display existing long texts as a quick view by moving the mouse over the relevant icon in the table. When copying order operations or materials, long texts that have been entered are also copied.


https://help.sap.com/viewer/77c07c8d30664260a0b3ff864e6b5e78/1909.002/en-US/57a5834d7b7d430b9520c4816bbdba5a.html

In the SAP standard system, the three additional texts are designated by Remark, Note and Comment. You can make settings to adjust the text label on the buttons, the column headings in the tables and the corresponding tooltips to suit your individual requirements.

When the system creates a purchase requisition for externally-procured services or non-stock material, the corresponding long texts are displayed on the Texts tab page. Whether you can merely display the texts in the purchase requisition or also change and print them depends on your Customizing settings for Materials Management.

NoteWhen you create a new order with a template or reference to another, the remarks, notes and comments that you have entered are copied to the new order if you have also selected the Order Descriptions checkbox in addition to the Operations and Components checkboxes.

Effects on Existing Data

In the operation and component table, the SAP standard system provides the three new table columns Note, Remark and Comment By clicking on the text symbol in the respective columns, you can enter, change and display long texts.

If you enter services as operations, you can edit and display the long texts directly on the External Data tab page. To do this in the SAP standard set-up, you can use the three new pushbuttons Note, Remark and Comment.

These texts are displayed on the Texts tab page in the purchase requisition.

● If normalized quantities in the Change Package Type Assignment app have changed (for example, because you have changed them manually or have used the Determine Normalized Quantity Based on Randomized Data app), these changes are not reflected in existing business documents such as freight orders or freight units.Planning with business documents that are based on outdated normalized quantities might lead to unexpected results, such as over-utilization or under-utilization. The new Check NLQs and Cancel Documents app allows you to analyze such results, which would otherwise be very difficult - if not impossible. You can check whether the normalized quantities in your business documents are up to date and, if not, cancel these business documents. For more information, see Check Normalized Quantities in Business Documents.You can also run this function in the background. To do so, on the SAP Easy Access menu choose

Logistics Transportation Management Administration Background Processing Check NLQs and Cancel Documents . For example, you can schedule this function to run automatically after you have used the Determine Normalized Quantity Based on Randomized Data app. For more information, see Check NLQs and Cancel Documents.

● When determining normalized quantities based on randomized data, you can now also enter the level on which normalized quantities are to be determined (on product level or reference product level, or both). For more information, see NLQ Determination Based on Randomized Data.Note that the Determine Normalized Quantity per Product and UoM app has been renamed to Determine Normalized Quantity Based on Randomized Data.

9.2.1.2 Configuration of Country-Specific Geographical Services

Defining the Variant for Cash Flow Creation in Customizing

You can use Customizing to define which variant is to be used for the contracts of a product module at sales product level:

● Variant 1: Collections update is interrupted - settlement interval according to payment frequency is interrupted

● Variant 2: Collections update is interrupted - settlement interval according to payment frequency is not interrupted

● Variant 3: Collections update is not interrupted - settlement interval according to payment frequency is not interrupted (creation of a delta document)

NoteVariant 3 cannot be used for the Life line of business.

For more information about the function as well as about the advantages and disadvantages of the three variants for cash flow creation, see the documentation under “Related Links”.

Change Affecting In-Force Business Made by Change Business Transactions – Variant 3 (Creation of a Delta Cash Flow Document)

If the change affecting in-force business is not triggered by a time model function or a BTS (Business Transaction Scheduler) date but by a Change business transaction (for example, as the result of the inclusion of an additional coverage), the cash flow documents could not previously be created according to variant 3 (creation of a delta document). This is now possible for contracts in the P&C and Auto lines of business.

This is irrespective of whether the business transaction is executed by a dialog business process or through a Remote Function Call.



Change Affecting In-Force Business Made by Change Business Transactions – Variant 3 (Creation of a Delta Cash Flow Document)The following applies to customer-specific Change business transactions: If you want to use cash flow creation according to variant 3 for these customer-specific Change business transactions, you must adjust your coding. For more information, see SAP Help Portal for Insurance Policy Management Overview under Policy Management in SAP S/4HANA - Additional Information Implementing Business Transactions , there chapter 4.8 (Enabling Customer-Specific Business Transactions for Creating Cash Flows (Variant 3 - Delta).

You can see which of the Change business transactions delivered by SAP have been activated for variant 3 in Developer Customizing in transaction SE43, area menu /PM0/CUST_INT, under Developer CustomizingInternal Customizing Business Transactions Configure Control Parameters for Business Transactions . This is indicated at Business Transaction Control Parameter level on the detailed screen for the relevant business transaction by the Delta Settlement checkbox in the Metainformation group box.


Defining the Variant for Cash Flow Creation in CustomizingThe new group dimension CFIRVAR (CashFlow Creation for Processing Act. in Interval) has been created in the Customizing activity Define Product Module Groups (Customizing path: Policy Management In-Force Business Management Basis Basic Settings Define Product Module Groups .

Furthermore, the following product module groups have been defined for the creation of cash flow documents in the new Customizing activity Define Types of Cash Flow Creation for Processing Activities in Interval (Customizing path: Policy Management Accounting Component Define Types of Cash Flow Creation for Processing Activities in Interval :

● 01_IR (Settlement Interval Is Interrupted)● 02_NIR (Settlement Interval Is Not Interrupted)

The Interrupt Settlement Interval Payment Frequency Yes/No field in the Customizing activity Define Journal Entries is also evaluated for this setting (see table below).

● 03_DELTA (Collections Update Is Not Interrupted)

NoteWe recommend that you assign your sales products to one of the three product module groups 01_IR, 02_NIR , or 03_DELTA .

The product module group 12_IR_NIR (Setting for Due Date Is Evaluated) is relevant only for customers prior to SAP S/4HANA 1909, FPS02 (see table below and under “Notes for Customers Prior to 1909, FPS02”). We only provide this product module group so that these customers can continue to use the settings as before after an upgrade.

In the Customizing activity Define Product Module Groups, select the group dimension CFIRVAR and at Assignment of Product Module ID to PBS Group level assign one of the above mentioned product module groups to the relevant product modules.

Notes for Customers Already Using Policy Management Prior to 1909, FPS02● If you have previously used either variant 1 or variant 2 for a product module and want to continue to do so,

you do not need to make any further settings. In this case, we provide product module group 12_IR_NIR (Setting for Due Date Is Evaluated), which is the default product module group in the Customizing activity Define Product Module Groups.

● CautionPreviously, you could use the Ignore for Collections End checkbox in the Customizing activity Define Dates for Time Model Functions to create the cash flow documents for this date according to variant 3 (creation of a delta document). This setting is no longer relevant for variant 3.

If you have selected this checkbox for such a date prior to SAP S/4HANA 1909 FPS02, note the following:

○ If you want to use variant 3 for a product module, assign the product module group 03_DELTA to this product module in the Customizing activity Define Product Module Groups. Variant 3 is then used for all dates. The setting for the Ignore for Collections End checkbox is ignored.

○ However, if you set a different variant from variant 3 for a product module, you must deselect this checkbox for all dates for which it is uncertain whether date processing would change the


characteristics of the recurring premium in such a way as to require the cash flow documents to be settled or adjusted.Only select the checkbox for dates that have no effect on premium collection.Otherwise, you run the risk that the cash flow documents will be incorrectly created for policies of this product module group.

● Previously, you could specify in the Customizing activity Process IDs for BTS Dates that certain dates resulted in a cash flow creation according to variant 3 (creation of a delta document). This setting is no longer evaluated. The data element Date Not Relevant for Collections Interval End (/PM0/ABD_COLLECTIONIGNRBLDT_FG) has been removed from the Customizing activity. If you set the variant 3 in the Customizing activity Define Product Module Groups, it now applies to all BTS dates.
