This period of time is always settled in days for time-based equipment. The shipping document is used as basis for settlement for time-based equipment. The PBE document is not taken into account for time-based equipment. If it were, settlement would take place twice once using the shipping document and once using the PBE document. Time-based equipment can be an equipment item or multipart equipment.Time Based Equipment ProcessEquipment that has been defined as performance-based, for example an excavator, is usually settled in hours on the basis of the PBE document. The performance-based equipment document is used as basis for settlement for performance-based equipment. If no PBE document has been created for the complete commissioning period, the shipping document is used as a basis for settlement. PBE is usually expensive equipment and managed in stock as an equipment item. To keep the equipment costs as comprehensive as possible, it is usually a good idea to create a separate PM order administrator (cost collector) for each equipment item.Performance Based Equipment Process -PBEThis business process is used if standard material, called non-consumable material e.g. site facilities, ladders etc. has to be shipped from a warehouse to a recipient (debtor master with enhanced ETM view) together with equipment in one ETM shipping document or has to be taken out of a magazine In both ways, non-consumable material is given back to the magazine or the warehouse via ETM shipping document after it has been used. This saves time and costs for transports and administrative effort. Magazines are a kind of little project warehouses on big construction sites/projects.The process in ETM is called sales and repurchase of non consumable material to and from a recipient/project - to and from a warehouse. This means, construction sites buy non consumable material for a fixed price and after the non consumable material is given back to either the magazine or the warehouse a reduced value will be credited to the project (automated repurchase process).ETM Non-Consumable Material ProcessWhen the periodically settlement takes place, projects get debited for the received material and credited for the returned material. So the project pays a kind of provision fee for the usage of the material. Generally the settlement of non consumable material is based on quantity and not on the time period like time based equipment!The cost charging and automated repurchase of non-consumable material is fully automated handled via ETM!

ETM Non-Consumable Material ProcessThis business process is used for shipping standard material, called consumable material (e.g. concrete or nails) together with equipment in one ETM shipping document to reduce transport- and handling costs for projects in construction industry. The cost charging is done by SAP standard Sales and Distribution (SD) and Material Management (MM). ETM only overtakes - logistically seen - the delivery of consumable material.No settlement takes place in ETM for consumable materials!
