You must maintain the serial number profiles beforehand.

You use this Customizing function to manage the document types and item categories permitted for purchase requisitions. Purchase Requisition: Define Document Types

PRSL : You can manage serial numbers in purchase requisitions (step 4 ).POSL : You can manage serial numbers in purchase orders (step 3 ).MMSL : You can enter a goods receipt and goods issue for the material serial number (refer to steps 4, 5, 7, and 8 in the map).You must assign at least the following three serializing procedures to each of the serial number profiles that you want to use for the subcontracting process (see the figure below): Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Master Data in Plant Maintenance and Customer Service > Technical Objects > Serial Number Management > Define Serial Number Profiles Transaction In the material master record, you must assign a serial number profile to this material at the plant level. You must assign a material serial number to each piece of equipment that you want to refurbish by means of a subcontracting process. You use this Customizing function to define serial number profiles. You must then configure the Customizing settings discussed in the following sections. Make sure that business functions LOG_EAM_ROTSUB, LOG_EAM_ROTSUB_2 and LOG_MM_SERNO are activated within S/4H_ALWAYS_ON_FUNCTIONS. You receive an invoice for the service provided by the subcontractor.For the components, a goods issue is posted from the subcontracting stock.For the part delivered, you create a goods receipt posting that refers to the subcontracting item in the purchase order.The subcontractor repairs, modifies, replaces, or exchanges the faulty part and returns the serviceable part.The provision represents a transfer posting from unrestricted use stock to stock of material provided to the vendor (subcontracting stock). The parts provided are managed as stock of material provided to the vendor (subcontracting stock).You use an outbound delivery to send the part to be repaired to the subcontractor.The purchase order item is identified as a subcontracting item (item category L) and is assigned the part that is to be returned following repair (material serial number). You convert the purchase requisition into a purchase order for the external repair or maintenance service.The SAP S/4HANA system now uses the maintenance order to create a purchase requisition for the external repair or maintenance service with a subcontracting item (item category L) and the material serial number.In this order, you enter a subcontracting operation (for which the Subcontracting indicator is set) and assign a material (for which the Refurbishment indicator is set) to this operation.

You therefore create a maintenance order with a material serial number and a normal order type. You have a faulty part that requires repair and is to be processed by a service provider.The subcontracting process comprises the following steps (see the map below): In contrast to the processes used for external processing, the object to be repaired or maintained is sent to the service provider, processed there, and then returned. The subcontracting business process in SAP S/4HANA Asset Maintenance, also known as subcontracting for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO), describes the process associated with having a piece of equipment (i.e., a material serial number) repaired by a service provider.
