2.1 What's New: Required Actions After Upgrade

This document provides information about what's new in SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack 3.5.
Required Actions
You must perform the following actions after upgrading to Feature Pack 3.5:
Approval Process for Shopping Carts, Purchase Orders, and Supplier Invoices As of FP 3.5, it is possible to assign more than one approval step to a shopping cart, purchase order, or supplier invoice. These steps can be configured now in the Application and User Management work center. In order to display and change the approval processes, the Approval Processes view in the Application and User Management work center must be assigned to an employee responsible. Asset Procurement in Purchasing As of FP 3.5, it is possible to create new individual materials directly in the purchase order and assign them to a fixed asset in Financial Management. Since individual materials are now created explicitly by the user in the purchase order or the goods and services receipt, there is no implicit creation of individual materials in Financial Management anymore. If individual materials have been created in the purchase order or the goods and services receipt, fixed assets may be created in Financial Management based on the product category of the item and the relevant settings in Financial Management for the automatic creation of fixed assets. As a consequence, if the user has not created individual materials, there will be no creation of fixed assets in Financial Management.

What Has Changed

Release is now Post On several screens in the Payment Management and Liquidity Management work centers, the term Release has been changed to Post.
LSV+ (Last Schrift Verfahren) Direct Debit Switzerland In Switzerland, customers can now make payments using the LSV+ (Last Schrift Verfahren) and BDD (Business Direct Debit) direct debit payment methods. With LSV+, the debtor can object to payments already made using this service for a period of up to 30 days. If the debtor objects, the amount debited from their account is canceled and no payment is made. The BDD direct debit service does not offer the right of objection. In instances where there are unrealized payments, the system detects these payments within a specified time frame and, depending on the payment rejection reason, takes whatever further action is necessary. Direct Debit Rejection Runs Switzerland A new subview called Direct Debit Rejection Run is now available under the Periodic Tasks view. This subview enables you to create direct debit rejection runs to gather overdue and unrealized direct debit payments and to trigger a system action to reject the selected direct debits. The system initiates post processing actions for the unrealized payments and therefore enables you to resolve the issue (if any) with the payment. In instances where there are unrealized payments, the system detects these payments within a specified time frame and, depending on the payment rejection reason, takes whatever further action is necessary. For more information, see Quick Guide for Direct Debit Rejection Runs. Processing of Payment Rejection Files Switzerland It is now possible to carry out post processing of payments that have been rejected. This can be done for payments made using the following payment methods: SEPA Credit Transfer When companies in Switzerland procure products from suppliers, they can pay using a bank transfer in the SEPA Credit Transfer file format. When the invoice becomes due, the company informs its bank to execute the payment of the invoice in the SEPA Credit Transfer file format. This file format must be available in the system in order to initiate payments.
SEPA Direct Debit and PostFinance When companies in Switzerland sell their products to customers, the customers can pay using a direct debit. In Switzerland, depending on the bank, this can either be a PostFinance or a SEPA direct debit. When an invoice becomes due, the selling company must inform the bank to execute payment of the invoice. In cases where the bank is the PostFinance, this is done using the PostFinance direct debit file and the direct debit payment method. For SEPA payments, the payment is made using the SEPA direct debit file. After processing the payments requested in the file, the bank sends back another file to the selling company containing all rejected or unrealized payments. The selling company must then process this file to mark all such payments as Rejected and, depending on the payment rejection reason, take whatever further action is necessary.

Acting as one legal entity, business transactions between the companies belonging to one TAX Reporting Group will not be relevant for tax reporting. In this use case, the header company has two roles: it acts as a tax reporting unit and as a kind of virtual pseudo tax authority to the member companies. Example: A is the head of the TAX reporting group, B and C are assigned companies. Company A reports and pays tax for A, B and C. Companies B and C pay their Tax Payables to company A.

You can use this field to enter the Service Tax Accounting Code if the tax code of the downpayment is service tax relevant. Rounding of Total Amounts in Logistics Documents India You can configure the rounding value of currency INR (default is 0.5). This would accordingly round off the total amount in logistics documents and post the difference to the configured rounding difference account. In sales documents such as Sales order/Customer invoice, the amount is automatically rounded. However, in Supplier Invoice, the user must enter the amount mentioned in received invoice. Hence a variance of amount is allowed to the extent of rounding difference without any exception.

4.4 What's New in the Invoice Requests View

This document provides information about whats new in the Invoice Requests view in SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack 3.5.
What Is New
Posting Date in Customer Invoicing Regardless of the invoice date customer invoice documents now provide the possibility of specifying a separate date that will be used as the posting date in accounting. If such a date is not specified, the invoice date will be used as a default. The invoice date describes when a customer invoice document is issued and is used to determine the payment due date and as a default for other dates if no specific information is available.
48
The changed posting date determines the accounting period to which the financial postings from the customer invoice document is assigned.
External Reference in Customer Invoicing The external reference number is now available in invoice requests and invoice documents. In invoice requests it is either derived from the external reference number of the predecessor document, for example, from a sales order, or it may be entered manually for manual invoice requests, manual credit memo requests, or recurring invoice templates. Since it is part of the invoice header, it is a split criterion for invoicing. In invoice documents, the external reference number is then determined based on the configuration set in the External Reference Number Determination for Customer Invoice fine-tune activity. The system transfers the external reference to financial accounting where it is used to group journal entries, and to aid clearing of open items. The external reference number may be used in reporting or may be added to self-defined print forms. Change of Adresses in Manual Invoice Documents In manual invoice documents, such as Manual Invoice Request, Manual Credit Memo Request, Down Payment Invoice Request, and Recurring Invoice Request, the business partner addresses can be displayed and changed from the usual screens using a hyperlink below the business partner. It is no longer necessary to navigate to the Involved Parties tab for this purpose. Additional Checks During File Upload When using the file upload for invoice requests, the following additional checks are executed before the invoice requests are created: The system checks that each item within an invoice request has a unique ID.
The system checks that the product is not being changed on item level in case of an invoice request update. The system checks that all IDs comply with the pattern defined in the corresponding data type specifically that lower case characters are not allowed. Moreover, IDs should be written without zeros at the beginning.
If any of the above checks fail, then the file upload is not performed. The checked result becomes visible in the application log, and problems may be corrected before invoice request creation. This leads to a more robust upload process.
What Has Changed

Changed User Interface for Invoice Creation In the Invoice Requests view in the Customer Invoicing work center, you can now start invoicing by clicking the Invoice or the Invoice - Advanced button. Invoice - Advanced now displays a modal dialog where you are able to specify a number of properties for invoicing. Default properties are preset. Invoice just starts the invoicing process with those default properties and no dialog appears. Additional Revenue Assignment Possibilities in Manual Invoicing For manual invoices including recurring invoices and manual credit memos, it is now possible to specify different revenue assignments: general ledger accounts only, project tasks, or external cost objects. For items without a product, a general ledger account must be specified. Additionally, it is possible to search for invoice requests, recurring invoice templates, and invoice documents using the different revenue assignments. In the Advanced Search, the assignment type may be specified to enable the corresponding search criteria. Down Payment Assignment with Additional Information When assigning cleared down payments to invoice requests, the list of assigned down payments as well as the dialog to select assignable down payments has been enhanced with the description, invoice date, and net

Country Specific Changes

Automatic Legal Approval Request and Automatic Release After Approval - Mexico In Mexico, customer invoices require an approval from the tax authorities before it is possible to release them in the system to subsequent processes, like financial accounting or to the customer. It is now possible to request the release of a customer invoice which automatically triggers the legal approval process. Once the approval is granted by the tax authorities, the system automatically changes the status of the invoicing documents from Approved to Released and releases the customer invoice. The user clicks the button Release button immediately after creation of a manual invoice or during creation of customer invoices for other predecessor documents as soon as the invoice request or invoice is consistent. If legal approval is required, instead of releasing the invoice, this action triggers the external approval process and automatically releases the invoice after approval is granted.

This document provides information about what's new in the Resource Management Resource Search view in SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack FP3.5.
Prerequisites
You must have included the business packages Project Management and Time and Labor Management in your scoped Business ByDesign solution during Business Configuration to use the full functions offered by the Availability Calendar. If you have scoped only one of these packages, the calendar is available, but with the following restrictions:
If Time and Labor Management is not included in your solution, the calendar cannot display daily work schedules of employees, and employees' availability for any given day/date would be empty. If Project Management is not included in your solution, the calendar displays employees' availability but a Resource Manager is not able to use the data in the calendar to assign employees to projects. In this situation, however, a Line Manager can still use the calendar to monitor the availability and utilization of his or her direct reports.
Where Project Management is included in your solution, hard commitment of resources must also have been made to the involved projects. Configuration settings are normally performed by a key user. If you do not have the required authorization, contact your key user.
What Is New
Assign a Resource to a Project from the Availability Calendar From the Availability Calendar of a resource, click Assign To Project . A guided activity opens where you can assign the resource to a project, define an assigned project period, and maintain a value for the committed work of the resource to the project. The resource is then included in the selected project team.
What Has Changed

Edit Resource Commitments As a Resource, Project, or Line Manager, you can now edit the project commitments of all resources staffed in projects (or available for project assignments) in the Availability Calendar. As an Employee assigned to projects in your company, you can also now use the Availability Calendar to edit your future commitments for currently ongoing projects.
71
Key Data Updates The Availability Calendar now displays four key data elements: Total Commitment: Total amount of hours/days allocated to the Resource for the project
Scheduled Commitment: Sum of project hours scheduled for the Resource between todays date and project end date To Be Rescheduled: Remaining Commitment minus Scheduled Commitment. Any value not equal to zero indicates the number of hours/days that require rescheduling. A minus value means that the number of hours/days scheduled must be reduced, indicating for example, that the employee has worked more hours/days in the past than scheduled. A positive value shows that the number of hours/days scheduled must be increased, indicating for example, that the employee has worked less hours/days in the past that scheduled. Remaining Commitment: Total Commitment minus the sum of work already performed in the project, as reported on the Resources time-sheet

Intercompany Time Recording It is now possible to perform intercompany project time (and expense) recording, which allows partner companies that belong to the same corporate group and that are technically working in the same SAP Business ByDesign system to efficiently work together on projects. In the context of the ESS Time Sheet this means that employees can now record work done for a project from a partner company within the same SAP Business ByDesign tenant When an employee is staffed on a project, the ESS Time Sheet worklist is automatically updated with the planned work package. When time is recorded against the work package, the system automatically determines the purchase order item from the service of the work package and the corresponding intercompany project. For information about the overall process, see Intercompany Project Time and Expenses. For more information about confirming time on intercompany projects, see Edit Time Sheet.
What Has Changed

Worklist Enhancements The worklist has several enhancements that facilitate working in the Time Sheet. New work packages assigned to the employee are automatically shown in the worklist and in the tasks view of the ESS Time Sheet. Using the new Manage My Worklist function, employees can control visibility of work packages and time types in the worklist. Changes made to the contents of the worklist are updated in parallel in the Time Sheet and vice versa. Additional Admissible Organizational Units in Time Recording Employees can record times on projects even if they are not explicitly on the project staffing list. It is sufficient if any organizational unit to which they belong, whether functional unit, cost center or reporting line unit, is assigned to the project. Previously, this function was limited to organizational units that are functional units. It has been extended to include cost centers and reporting line units. Handling of Unplanned Project Tasks in Time Recording When employees need to add a work package to their worklist to which they are not already assigned, they do not need to search for a service product for the project task. The service product will be defaulted if there is one unassigned work package for this task and the employee is not assigned to any other work package of this task.

Enable Non-Specified Identified Stock Allocation In the Identified Stock view, the scope of allocation (a definition of the type of stock reservation) can now be set as Specific Stock or Non-Specified Identified Stock. Specific Stock means that the stock reservation is done for a specific identified stock. This is the allocation scope used by default.
Non-Specified Identified Stock means that the stock reservation is done at the product level. When using this allocation scope, the allocation process allocates a requested quantity without specifying a concrete identified stock. The identified stock can be determined by the user at a later stage, when performing the actual execution.
Material Valuation Level Displayed for Identified Stocks In the Identified Stock view, valuation levels define the granularity at which inventory valuation is calculated. Material valuation is defined in the material master data. If an identified stock has no product specification, it has by default the Business Residence valuation level type. If you change the valuation level, the change will only apply to an identified stock that meets both the following conditions: The valuation level was changed before the identified stock was activated.
No other active identified stock exists with a different product valuation level for the same combination of product and product specification.
All identified stocks with the same product and product specification combination will have the same product valuation level, and this is determined when the first of these identified stocks is activated. Identified stocks that existed before the change continue to be valued at the previously defined level. Planning and Production Master Data
BoM Filtering in Production Bill of Material View In the past, in the BoM maintenance screen, the user viewed all the components irrespective of its validity date including unused components that are not relevant to production of the output-product.

7.1 What's New in Project Management

This document provides information about what's new in Project Management in SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack 3.5.
What Is New
Intercompany Settlement Projects The intercompany project time and expenses process is now available. Projects that are to be used for the intercompany project time and expenses settlement are marked accordingly under Accounting , and in the Projects view of the Project Management and Cost and Revenue work centers. You can also search for intercompany settlement projects using the advanced search criteria. Intercompany settlement projects can only be created automatically from the sales order, which defines the context in which the costs and revenues for the settlement takes place. The intercompany settlement scenario must be enabled in your system configuration. For more information, see Intercompany Project Time and Expenses. New Process Type for Projects for Multi-Customer Projects The Multi-Customer Projects processing type for projects is now available. This processing type allows the assignment of sales order items to the relevant projects, where cost and revenue assignments result in the proper postings in Accounting. It is intended to be used especially in combination with the Point-of-Sale integration. The main difference from the former non-billable other direct cost projects is found in the resulting financial posting and reporting. Milestone Invoicing In addition to fixed dates, you now have the possibility to link project milestones to invoice schedules as a basis for invoicing. For more information, see What's New: Project Invoicing [page 90] (section: Milestone Invoicing for Customer Projects). Project Substitution for Project Team Member You can now mark project team members as a substitute for the purposes of project maintenance and approvals. This substitution can be set for the entire project. The substitution and its deletion affect only approval tasks which are created after the substitution maintenance took place. You can set a substitute in the Projects view under Team and Staffing . Older approval tasks stay in the responsibility of the persons which were in charge in the moment when the approval task was created. The existing self-service substitution is still supported and can serve as a global definition of substitutes, however, that only covers the approvals. Reports Earned Value Analysis Earned Value Analysis (EVA) is a project management technique for measuring project progress in an objective manner. EVA has the ability to combine measurements of scope, schedule, and cost in a single integrated way. Adequately applied, EVA provides an early warning of project performance issues. You can find this report in the Reports view of the Project Management work center .

What Has Changed

Time Confirmation Settings on Project Task Level The Mandatory Time Approval checkbox has been replaced by a list of possible conditions for time confirmations. For each project task or the project as a whole, you can set whether time confirmations are allowed, blocked, or allowed with approval by the project manager. Note that unplanned times or times from external team members always require approval. If time confirmations are blocked for the entire project, the project is no longer available in the time sheet worklist as a default entry. This also applies for assigned org units. However, time recording can still be allowed on subordinate tasks (with or without mandatory approval). Note that this setting is not inherited to subordinate tasks, but can be set on each task individually. Other postings aside from time confirmations, such as expense reports, are not affected by this setting.

Configuration settings are normally performed by a key user. If you do not have the required authorization, contact your key user. The following changes in the Business Configuration work center are relevant for this area or topic. You can perform business configuration settings in the Business Configuration Implementation Projects view. A new project type and a new indicator are available for intercompany projects to mark a project type as relevant.

7.2 What's New: Project Invoicing

This document provides information about what's new in Project Invoicing in SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack 3.5.
90
What Is New
Milestone Invoicing for Customer Projects In invoice schedules, project milestones can be used instead of fixed dates for project based services and expenses. Both fixed price as well as time and material are supported.
An invoicing-relevant milestone is visualized in the table part of the Gantt chart by a filled rhombus icon (non-invoicing-relevant milestone: empty rhombus). Under Project Management Projects on the Sales Tracking Invoice Schedule Assignment tab of the project, details of the invoice schedule assignment are displayed.
For more information, see Milestone Invoicing for Customer Projects.
Project Invoice Requests for Intercompany Project Time and Expenses Scenario The creation of the project invoice request in the selling company is based on the invoice schedule information contained in the sales order. In such a case, only time and material based dates are present in the invoice schedule. If time and expense items can be assigned to the project invoice request by the system correctly, the latter is released automatically. Otherwise a business task is created in the Work view of the Customer Invoicing work center and the invoicing clerk has to correct the project invoice request and release it manually. For more information, see Intercompany Project Time and Expenses. Print Preview in Project Invoice Request The print preview in the project invoice request now displays the real customer invoice(s) - if already existent. If a customer invoice does not exist yet, for example, if the project invoice request has only just been created and has the status in preparation, an invoice is simulated using the data from the project invoice request as well as the relevant customer invoicing print form. Time and Material Invoice Schedules for Project-Based Services In invoice schedules the schedule type time and material now also supports project-based services and expenses. Considering the lead time before the invoice schedule date or by completion of a project milestone, a time and material project invoice request is created by a job that invoices all relevant times and expenses. For more information, see Invoice Schedule. Project invoice request displays overinvoiced quantities and net values or those not yet invoiced It is now possible to see in the project invoice request, whether quantities or net values still need to be invoiced or whether the sales order is already overinvoiced. Sales Order Item Determination Rules During the execution of a project, consultants can create time confirmations, expense reports, goods and service receipts, and invoicing clerks can create supplier invoices, which can then be billed to a customer project with sales integration. When information about these project expenses is sent to Accounting, deferred costs referring to the project tasks are posted in the Sales Ledger Account. Once the sales order item for the journal entry is entered, the expenses are reposted in Accounting. For example, if an accrual method has not been assigned to this sales order item, a secondary posting is triggered, which posts the deferred costs to costs of goods sold into the Sales Ledger Account that refers to that sales order item. For more information, see Edit Assignment Rules for Linking Project Tasks to Sales Order Items . External Reference in Project Invoice Request The External Reference field has been introduced to the project invoice request. This field is copied from the sales order if available. It is manually editable in the project invoice request and later transferred to financials via the customer invoice. The External Reference field is mandatory for France. If this field is empty for France, the project invoice request cannot be released.
91
New Invoice Schedule Status For a project-based invoice schedule date, a project invoice request is created automatically as soon as this date is reached. In this case, the status in the invoice schedule date is changed from open to the new value project invoice requested. If you change the respective sales order item net value, the project invoice request is deleted and the status changes to open again (the same happens if you delete or cancel the project invoice request manually). During the next job run an updated project invoice request is created and the status changes to project invoice requested. For more information, see Invoice Schedule. Customer Project Task Status Influences Sales Order Item Delivery Status The status of a customer project task that is linked to one or several sales order items now influences the delivery status of these sales order items. A project task that has not been released leaves the sales order item delivery status as not started. After the project task has been released, the status is changed to in process. As soon as the project task is completed, the status is set to finished. The status change action within the sales order in the Customer Invoicing work center was re-named from finish to finish invoicing to reflect the fact that only the invoicing status (but no longer the delivery status) is affected.

What is New
Sales Order Item Determination rules To aid in sales order item determination, the system suggests for the sales order item reference of a cost posting. In addition to the basic rules provided by the system, you can also create rules for sales order item determination in case the correct sales order item cannot be determined or is incorrect. These rules are derived from the linkage between sales order items and project tasks. You can now create system-defined rules and define the sequence in which these rules are applied. These rules are then used during sales order item proposal.

You can set a substitute under Team and Staffing . Older approval tasks stay in the responsibility of the persons which were in charge in the moment when the approval task was created. The existing self-service substitution is still supported and can serve as a global definition of substitutes, however, that only covers the approvals. Maintenance of a Cost Center per Project Task for a more detailed Profit Center Finding You can specify a cost center for each project task when planning the project structure. Although it is still mandatory to specify the responsible unit (that is a cost center) for the project, it is now possible to maintain deviating cost centers for every task. The changed cost center on task level is implicitly inherited to the subtasks. All deviating cost centers must belong to the same company. The cost center is used to derive a profit center per task, which allows reporting of costs and revenues on different profit centers. New Completion Date on Project Tasks A completion date has been added to project tasks. This comes together with the new lifecycle status Completed for tasks. The date is set when the completed status is reached, and can be manually changed until the project is saved. This date is an additional info and can be used by various follow-up steps, for example, the date can be put on an invoice in the context of milestone invoicing. Displaying Scheduled Snapshot Runs for a Project You can now view the scheduled jobs of snapshot runs for a project via Edit Scheduled Snapshot Runs. You can also Show
Displaying Actual Time Confirmations in Project Plan In the Work tab on the Project Plan screen you can now display the actual time confirmations and the changes of the remaining work for a selected work package.

94
Invoicing buttons in the project list grouped into a context menu To simplify invoicing, formerly existing actions to create and update a project-based invoice request are now grouped into a context menu for each project in the project list of the Projects view in the Project Management work center. In the former releases the two options to create a project invoice request (manual and automatic creation) were found under the New menu button, and the possibility to edit an existing non-released project invoice request was available under the Edit menu button. These three actions are now moved to the context menu, and in addition the possibility to schedule the automatic invoice creation to be executed immediately is added. Time Confirmation Settings on Project Task Level The Mandatory Time Approval checkbox has been replaced by a list of possible conditions for time confirmations. For each project task or the project as a whole, you can set whether time confirmations are allowed, blocked, or allowed with approval by the project manager. Note that unplanned times or times from external team members always require approval. If time confirmations are blocked for the entire project, that project is no longer available in the time sheet worklist as a default entry. This also applies for assigned org units. However, time recording can still be allowed on subordinate tasks (with or without mandatory approval). Note that this setting is not inherited to subordinate tasks, but can be set on each task individually. Other postings aside from time confirmations, such as expense reports, are not affected by this setting. Cost Centers and Reporting Line Units allowed to assign to project team and staffing In addition to assigning functional units to a project, you can now add cost center and reporting line units. Employees of such functional units have the project header available in the worklist in the time sheet, and time confirmations do not require approval. Modified Status Changes The maintenance of the project and task lifecycle status is done using a dropdown box where the status is displayed as the content of the field, and the change actions are displayed if you expand the dropdown box. For better clarity of the status changes and what happens in the system some of these status change actions were renamed: For a project with the status In Planning, you now select status Start and Release. For a task with status Released, you now select the status Complete and Close. New Project Lifecycle Status Two new statuses have been added for project tasks, which allow better tracking of the project tasks fulfillment. One status is shown as a green icon next to the Status field. This icon indicates that the work on a released project task has started. This icon is automatically set when a time confirmation is recorded on the project task. The project status is shown as Completed when the operative work on this task is done. When this status is reached, time confirmations, purchase orders, and goods issues are no longer allowed. Financial processes, such as customer and supplier invoicing, are still possible. Display Sales Order for Time and Expense Items On the relevant project invoicing screens, the sales order is now displayed in addition to the sales order item.

8.3 What's New in the Purchase Orders to Be Delivered View

This document provides information about what's new in the Purchase Orders to Be Delivered view of SAP Business ByDesign Feature Pack 3.5. What Is New The following functions are new:
When confirming the delivery of non-stock material items, buyers can now individualize the materials delivered, assign them to other individual materials, and to fixed assets. The individual material details are displayed on the Basic Data tab page of the goods and services receipt. Once the goods and services receipt is released, the individual material and fixed asset assignments are updated in Financials.
98
As individual materials are now created explicitly by the buyer in purchase orders or goods and services receipts, there is no implicit creation of individual materials in Financials anymore. If individual materials are created in a purchase order or goods and services receipt, fixed assets may be created in Financials based on the product category of the item and the respective settings in Financials for the automatic creation of fixed assets. As a consequence, if the user has not created any individual materials in the purchase order or goods and services receipt, there is no creation of fixed assets in Financials. For more information, see Asset Procurement in Purchasing. What Has Changed The following functions have changed:
Per default, the delivered quantity proposed in a goods and services receipt equals the ordered quantity of the corresponding purchase order. The introduction of schedule lines in purchase orders (see What's New in Purchase Orders), has an impact on the delivered quantity proposed in the corresponding goods and services receipt: If schedule lines have been defined for a purchase order, the delivered quantity proposed in a goods and services receipt does no longer equal the full ordered quantity. Instead, it is reduced to the quantity that has been ordered for the current schedule line.

Known Issues A known issue describes an unavailable or only partially available function that deviates from the planned scope of the software product. The impact of a known issue is not expected to be as significant for the customer as that of a limitation. Before you upgrade to a new SAP Business ByDesign feature pack, you can look up known issues and limitations in case documents in the self-enablement system. After the upgrade, you can look them up in your own solution.
