4.4.1 Create Billing Document
Service orders record the details of a one-off service agreed upon by a service provider and a service recipient.
You can do the following:
● Create a service order as a follow-up transaction of another transaction (for example, a service request)
● Create follow-up transactions from a service order (for example, a service confirmation)
● Create a service order as a follow-up transaction of a service order template
This scope item covers the creation of service orders in which diverse services and service parts can be planned. Service technicians execute the services and optionally make use of related service
parts. After the service order is confirmed and completed, an invoice is created.
This section summarizes all prerequisites to conducting the test in terms of systems, users, master data, organizational data, and other test data and business conditions.
System Details
SAP S/ Accessible via SAP Fiori launchpad. Your system administrator provides you with the relevant
4HANA URL.
2.2 Roles
Assign the following business roles to your individual test users. Alternatively, if available, you can create business roles and predefined apps for the SAP Fiori launchpad and assign the business
roles to your individual test users.
These roles are examples provided by SAP. You can use them as templates to create your own roles.
For more information about business roles, refer to the Assigning business roles to a user in the Administration Guide to Implementation of SAP S/4HANA with SAP Best Practices.
The business roles in the following table contain authorization and navigation objects specific to the SAP S/4HANA Service application. Your system administrator can use them as templates to cre -
ate customer-specific business roles with the appropriate authorizations.
In addition to these Service-specific authorizations, generic SAP application access must be granted by your system administrator. The system administrator assigns all required application business
roles to your system user.
Note For detailed information about roles and authorizations, refer to the SAP S/4HANA security guide at https://help.sap.com/viewer/product/SAP_S4HANA_ON-PREMISE > Implement.
