1)Overview of service procurement
Service procurement takes place when an organization employs a vendor for external services, which are jobs carried out by an external contractor like painting office buildings, repairing electric fittings, plumbing, maintenance of various equipment etc. this procurement process is similar to consumable materials procurement because services are also procured for consumption First, you create and send a service PO to the vendor, and then the vendor performs the services for you. There are no goods receipts in service procurement; instead, you need to maintain a service entry sheet for the work completed by the vendor, as shown in Figure.

We can create the purchase order via Transaction ME21N and use item category D (services), and account assignment category K (cost center) or U (unknown). In the item details, enter the service master number or activity number. The quantity and prices will be picked up from condition/info records (if they have been maintained)

In service procurement, instead of a goods receipt, a service entry sheet is retained for the task performed. We can maintain and accept the service entry sheet via transaction ML81N. If account assignment category U (unknown) was selected in the purchase order, whilst entering the service entry sheet, we need to change this to any other account assignments category such as cost center or project or any other suitable once we accept the service entry sheet by clicking accept button and clicking on Save the system will automatically generate the material as well as account document
