The terms of a framework agreement apply up to a specified period of time and cover a certain pre-defined amount or value. Data model – orders and framework agreements Step 2 – Include the name of the creditor, the type of contract, the purchase organization, the buying group and the factory with the date of the contract. A delivery plan is a long-term framework agreement between the lender and the customer on pre-defined equipment or service obtained on pre-defined dates over a period of time. A schedule can be established in two ways: Note: Of course, there may be other types of supporting documents, both in the standard and in the context of customizing. For our blog post, these are enough to explain the relationships. You can clearly display the category (K or L) and the type of document associated (LP, WK, MK). Our system includes 154 agreements. So, if we add types of documents to our table above, the situation is this (this time I omitted the categories of documents and the types of documents that are not relevant to the contract: it`s a little more technical, but here, for the sake of completeness, a screenshot is the document type table with customizing settings in SAP® if these are needed for data analysis. Number lists for the corresponding types of proofs, z.B. The field selection parameters, etc., are included in this table: A framework agreement can be of the following two types – A framework agreement is a long-term purchase agreement with a borrower that contains terms and conditions for the equipment to be provided by the lender.

As a general rule, the objective of framework agreements is to set a ceiling or a total volume (i.e. a target value). For quantity contracts that are very specific to individual materials and therefore often related to a material number (field: EKPO_MATNR), because the number of parts or the number of parts play an important role here (although there are other possibilities. B for an unknown material or consumables that I will not study here).
This is why the target value here is at the level of the respective contract position, since the target quantity (field: EKPO_KTMNG) multiplied by the price of the material in question gives the reference value (field: EKPO_ZWERT) of each item. To return to standard commands, you can use z.B the ME23N transaction. T-code ME33K shows you contracts, and ME33L is correct for delivery plans.
