In today's fast-paced business environment, visibility and traceability are critical for effective decision-making. SAP’s Manage Solution Quotation Version-2 app addresses this need by offering a comprehensive view of the entire solution from creation of solution quotation to porgress of each follow-up documents execution. This blog highlighting the new feature and how businesses can leverage it to optimize operations.
From 2023 FPS01, new fiori app 'Manage Solution Quotations - Version 2' is availalbe to use. Using this app user can easily create new solution quotations or navigate to existing ones. This app provides a network graph view, allowing you to track the status of a predefined set of follow-up documents or service transactions, such as sales orders, service orders or subscription contract. At each graphical node, like a sales order or subscription contract, you can see key details including the document ID and status with colour coded node of each follow-ups. A focused progress monitor is available at both the solution quotation header and item levels, offering a clear view of the overall process. Users can also navigate directly to specific documents or transactions, provided they have the necessary roles for access.
On open of this app you will see list of solution quotations created, user can search using the default filters, also can adapt the given filters.
To navigate to the details page of a solution quotation, click on the respective row. To visualize the end-to-end progress of the solution, the user must click the "Action" button in the corresponding solution quotation row. On click on action button it opens the fiori object page with Details, Items and Progress Monitor. In this example I have used mixed bundled product which is a combination of different configurable non configurable products. Solution Quotation has been accepted which has generated its follow-up documents( sales order, service order, service contract and subscription contract).
By default, it shows the progress flow of the header documents as depicted in the image above. To visualize a specific item, click on the corresponding line item, To illustrate in this example I have selected item 40, which is a subscription item.
As you progress with specific documents, such as sales documents, you can visualize the corresponding outbound delivery and invoice documents.
Navigate to Documents from Progress Monitor: To navigate, the user can click on a node, which will display a set of buttons. By clicking the "Navigate to Document" button, the available navigation options will be shown, depending on the user's authorizations. Similalry you can explore other button like Expand/Collapse, Node Details and Collapse Path.
