In this IMG activity you define the type of communication control and the method of service determination to be used.

Note the following: As of Release 4.64, the data exchange process functions are to be used for the data exchange. It is not necessary to set the type of communication control when using the data exchange process.

• As of Release 4.71, the supply scenario is available. If you activated the service determination based on the supply scenario (Utility Industry -> Basic Settings/Enterprise Structure -> Define Deregulation Settings) it is not necessary to set the method for the service determination.

  We recommend you use the supply scenario when using the new service determination.

Choose from the following types of communication control:

• Communication based on service types
  Intended for stable deregulated markets, in which different distribution
  grids use the same communication standards. The communication standards are defined at service type level. This procedure is the least specific but it is the easiest to maintain.
• Communication based on service providers
  Intended for markets in which the communication standards of service providers can vary. The communication standards are defined at service provider level, enabling you to enter specific data on the communication type and format of different service providers. Note that this type of communication control requires extensive maintenance but enables you to configure the type and format of communication very precisely. The disadvantage of this procedure is that the configuration is more time-consuming.

Depending on the type of communication control you have chosen you must also establish the necessary settings in the SAP Easy Access menu under Intercompany Data Exchange -> Communication Control -> Communication on the Basis of Service Types or under Communication Control -> Communication on the Basis of Service Providers

Choose from the following methods of service determination:

• By operational area

  Intended for deregulated markets in which the type and number of services vary very little or not at all.

• By service provider relationship

  Allows for a more flexible determination of billable and non-billable services.

Depending on the method of service determination you have chosen you must also establish the necessary settings in the Utilities Industry menu under Services.

Example

Communication Control

• If you choose Communication by Service Type in the Communication Method field, you must establish settings in the IMG under Intercompany Data Exchange -> Communication Control -> Communication on the Basis of Service Types.

  Note that in this case, you cannot establish settings in the Communication Based on Service Providers activity. If you do, these settings have no effect on the system.

• If you choose Communication by Service Provider in the Communication Method field, you must establish settings in the IMG under Intercompany Data Exchange -> Communication Control -> Communication on the Basis of Service Providers.

  Note that in this case, you cannot establish settings in the Communication Based on Service Type activity. If you do, these settings have no effect on the system.

Service Determination

• If you choose By Operational Area in the Service Determination Method field then you must establish settings in the IMG under Intercompany Data Exchange -> Services -> Services Based on Operational Area.

  Note that in this case, you cannot establish settings in the Services Based on Service Provider Relationship activity. If you do, these settings have no effect on the system.

• If you choose By Service Provider Relationship in the Service Determination Method field then you must establish settings in the IMG under Intercompany Data Exchange -> Services -> Services Based On Service Provider Relationship.

  Note that in this case, you cannot establish settings in the Services Based on Operational Area activity. If you do, these settings have no effect on the system.

Activities

Further notes

You can only define one communication control key.

The communication method you have chosen here applies for all communication with the following exception: sending and receiving schedules and load shapes. Schedules and load shapes are always sent and received using the communication on the basis of service providers communication method, even if the communication by service type communication procedure has been set. The reason for this is that schedules and load shapes must also be sent to recipients that cannot be identified as the service provider of a point of delivery service.
