Product Spec.

Purchase Contract
Management

• Model product specifications are used for engineered

services processes, where often mixed hierarchies of
products and services need to be procured. Example:
construction services.
• Model product specifications can be defined as templates
and (since release 2022) copied into purchase contracts.
There, procurement-related data is being added to the
engineering-focused structure.
• Mass creation/change of model product specifications,
based on spreadsheets, is now possible with up to five
levels of item hierarchies, comprising products and/or
services and free text.

Benefit
• Easy maintenance and re-use of to-be-procured
hierarchical structures

• Sourcing manager requests carbon footprint information for

• Suppliers provide carbon footprint information at the item
level through their quotations
• Sourcing manager can compare carbon footprint information
submitted by multiple suppliers to choose carbon conscious
suppliers for award decisions

Benefits
• Ease collecting scope 3 emission information during the

Maintaining tax records in sales or uploading

them from template-based spreadsheets

• New Fiori app to create tax rates in the form of

condition records as the pricing master data in sales.
• When a tax is calculated in a business document, the
system looks for the corresponding condition
records in the master data to determine the final tax
rate.
• Support of mass operation to efficiently manage
multiple tax rates at one time

The following tasks are performed in this SAP Fiori app:

• Maintain tax records and its details
• Select a specific template for the combination of tax-
relevant attributes
• Download the template to a spreadsheet
• Specify values in the spreadsheet for the tax record
and for the tax-relevant fields and the validity dates

Sales & Solution Billing 2023
Flexible billing document posting –
suppressing automatic posting
Enhancement of flexible billing document functionality to enable
the dynamic suppression of the automatic posting of specific billing
documents to financial accounting:

• Specify criteria that the system uses to decide whether or not to

block the automatic posting of specific billing documents to
financial accounting

• Trigger dedicated decision logic depending on the billing

document's tax departure country or region

• Base each decision on an evaluation of specific header fields of

the billing document to be posted

• Evaluate the following header fields: billing type, sales

organization, company code, SD document category, preceding
billing type, and destination country or region

• Add custom fields to the billing document header through

extensibility to further customize your criteria for posting
suppression

Claims, Returns and
Refund Management
2023
Suspending product valuation initiated by
a refund in the customer returns process

• By default, if you decide to refund the customer

(either with a replacement or a credit memo), the
product ownership is transferred from the customer
to you and the system performs the valuation
posting, for example, posting the goods receipt to
valuated stock.

• However, there may be cases where you want to

refund the customer but do not want the refund to
be interpreted as a transfer of product ownership
before the inspection. To achieve this, you can now
indicate in the returns order item that you want the
system to delay the product valuation for any refund
decisions made until the final logistical follow-up
activity is confirmed in the inspection.

• As a result, only the final logistical follow-up activity

determines whether the product valuation should

Serialized products are products that have

identified as unique products and are
recorded with the quantity 1 only. Within
the in-house repair process, serialized
products are handled like equipment.
Non-serialized products are products that

Revenue Accounting

Migration to optimized revenue accounting in a distributed scenario

In a distributed system scenario, it is beneficial to complete the operational
load from all involved operational systems before starting the creation of
revenue accounting contracts. This ensures that all revenue accounting items,
created in different operational systems, are available and will be considered
when combining them into the contracts. In the SAP Sales and Distribution
operational load transactions* you now have the option to postpone contract
creation in Revenue Accounting and Reporting.

If you choose to use this option, the operational load will be performed, but the
revenue accounting items (RAIs) will not be processed immediately. Instead,
they will be postponed with the postponement reason Initial Load.

When the operational load for all involved operational systems has been
completed, you can start the initial load transaction** to create RAR contracts.
This program picks up all revenue accounting items with the postponement
reason ‘Initial Load’ and processes them

SAP S/4HANA Compatibility Packs:
Selective Extension of Compatibility Pack Usage Rights
More details in SAP Note 2269324:
SAP grants a timely restricted usage right for specific classic solution functionalities in the context of SAP S/4HANA. These
• Customer Service (CS) IDs 402-413
term licenses are limited to the end of 2025, and are defined by the compatibility scope. SAP intends to provide new go-to • Transport (LE-TRA) ID 474
functionalities for all compatibility scope items by 2023. Many compatibility scope items can already be phased out today. This • Production Planning for Process Ind.
transition from compatibility scope to the new go-to solutions is in most cases primarily a technical adoption and can be (PP-PI) IDs 444, 446, 447, 453-457
conducted with moderate effort.

For three compatibility scope components (Customer Service, Transport, and Production Planning for Process
Industries) the new go-to solutions provide enhanced capabilities and will require a more extensive transformation project,
especially for global organizations and customers who leverage individual extensions today.
In order to help customers get the highest business value from their SAP S/4HANA systems, SAP has decided to align the usage rights for those three components
with the SAP Business Suite maintenance timeline. SAP is extending the usage rights exclusively for Customer Service, Transport, and Production Planning
for Process Industries until the end of 2030.

This extension will be available to all SAP S/4HANA customers in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition as well as those with an SAP S/4HANA on-premise
deployment and is limited to the three components listed above. The extension comes at no additional cost and does not require any contractual changes or
amendments for existing customers as the change is being implemented centrally.
