Hi Experts,

I am currently working on Rental Management as a functional consultant. My responsibility is to look after the entire functionality from all module/integration perspective from end to end process. Could you please guide/advice me on the possible business scenarios for end to end functional testing, any supporting documents on the same, what are the areas i should be focusing more or concentrate more, what should be my correct approach or strategy on the same?

Thanks and Regards

Amicable

Hi Amicable,

Rental Management in IS Oil is related to scenarios where heavy equipment are hired on rent.

Hence the focus should be on

  • Master data - Creating Equipment as Material. Since these Equipment are rented and not purchased, GR should not hit out book of accounts. Hence select appropriate Material type.
  • Purchase Order - Create account assigned Service PO. Account assignment can be Asset / Work Order / Cost center, as required.
    • In Service line, enter the Material (equipment) details and maintain the Mobilization status.
  • Receive Material for PO
  • Create Service Entry Sheet for the rented period.
  • Send Material back to Vendor.

Kindly go through below document that I created to explain the Rental Management scenario in details.

Below SAP help explains the details very effectively:

Rentals - SAP Oil & Gas (RLM - Remote Logistics Management) - SAP Library

Reward if Helpful / Correct answer.

Thanks,

Akash Mhowwala

Hi Akash,

You can remove the client's name, confidential data and send to me on my email ID: himanshu_tiwari22@yahoo.com.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Amicable,

Presently I am not working on a Oil & Gas project, hence I dont have any other documents.

Kindly refer to the links posted in my earlier reply.

Once you have maintained the basic config, OBYC and created the master data, try to test the scenario Step-by-step as mentioned in the document that i have shared on SCN.

Please let me know if you face any issues/errors.

Thanks,
Akash Mhowwala
