Component : Service Parts Management -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/821101 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note details the prerequisites and constraints for utilizing the Service Parts Management (SPM) solution in SAP's ERP environment. It is specifically intended for users looking to enable SPM functionalities via IMG activities under Logistics Execution. These settings activate enhancements critical for effectively managing service parts. The solution's architecture mandates the integration of SAP ECC, CRM, SCM, APO, EWM, ICH, GTS, EP, and BW. Key constraints include the dependence on SAP APO for process execution within the sell-from-stock scenario, and specific limitations when interfacing with SAP ERP standard functions, particularly around outbound and inbound process handling, warehouse management integration, and ERP CO-PA integration. Detailed consideration is required for route determination, error handling in ASN processing, and process integration with non-SPM systems.
