Financial reporting (Balance Sheet/ Profit & Loss Accounts) are prepared at company code level. In BSNL all the telecom circl es, project circles,
maintenance regions etc. have been designated as a company code.
Plant:-
A plant is an organizational logistics unit that structures the enterprise from the perspective of procurement, material plan ning, production and
plant maintenance. Each plant is assigned to a company code. One company code can have several plants. A plant can be assigned to only one
company code. In BSNL, inventory valuation is done at plant level.
Storage Location:-
The storage location is an organizational unit where either inventory management on quantity basis or verification of services is carried out
within a plant. A storage location is assigned to a plant. A plant may cover several storage locations. A storage location can be assigned to only
one plant.

A Purchasing Organization is an organization level that negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors for one or more plants. BSNL has both
centralized and decentralized purchasing organization.

Vendor Payment once approved in note-sheet can be realized through ERP by Purchase Order and Service entry sheet/ Goods Receipt
through MIGO route in the following way:
a. Create a Purchase order by T-Code me21n. Data required for creating a PO is Vendor Code, GL Code and Cost Centre along with
Purchase Organization, Purchase Group, Company Code, Plant, Storage Location, Account Assignment, tax code and Item
Category. All these data can be searched and help of account personnel may be taken for clarification.
b. Purchase order once created is stored in the inbox, SAP Business Workplace, of the initiator and can be forwarded to the next
higher authority through the workflow by writing the user ids of the reviewer and Final Approver.
c. After approval of P.O., a Service Entry Sheet is created by T-code ML81n against the P.O. in order to measure the services marked
in the P.O. In case the Purchase Order is for procurement of Material, then Goods Receipt is to be done with the help of T -code
MIGO.
d. Service Entry sheet once created is stored in the inbox, SAP Business Workplace, of the initiator and can be forwarded to the next
higher authority through the workflow by writing the user ids of the reviewer and Final Approver. There is no workflow for MIGO
approval
e. The original vendor invoice is forwarded to Finance section for payment either with copies of PO and material document/SES
or mentioning ERP system generated PO no. and SES/Material document no. in sanction memo as per their requirement. AO
(Claims) in Finance section run the T-code MIRO, Invoice verification, and create liability. The created liability is forwarded to
competent authority through workflow for release of payment block and subsequent payment by Central Settlement Cell (CSS).
The MM or Planning Cell compiles all the requirement of material /services to be procured and get the sanction of competent authority
through Purchase Requisition process. The appropriate vendor, meeting technical specifications is decided by manual tendering/ E
tendering process. An Advanced Purchase Order (APO) is placed to the vendor /vendors for submission of Bank Guarantee and signing of
legal contract. Once a contract is in place, purchase orders (work order) can be issued by competent executives during the validity of
contract.
However if a contract is not available/required, direct Purchase order can also be placed to the vendor based on
finalization of manual/e-tendering process.
MM Documents PR/APO/PO/SES are subject to release/Approval process in ERP. There are generally two releases R1 and R2. R2 R elease
is used for final approval of the document by the competent authority.
Once PR/APO/PO is created, it is stored in the inbox in SAP Business Workplace of the initiator and can be accessed by clicking the
PR/APO/PO entry in the inbox.
On opening inbox the APO/ PO/ SES workflow pending at the user end is visible .
