To generate project stock reservations for a component assigned to a network activity, the following prerequisites must be met:

The network activity must be assigned to a WBS element that is relevant for project stock management.

The material master of the component must have a procurement type that allows project stock management (such as E, F, or X) and an individual/collective requirements indicator that allows individual requirements (such as 2 or 4).

The project definition must have the Project Stock indicator set to either non-valuated or valuated project stock. Reference: https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_S4HANA_ON-PREMISE/4dd8cb7b1c484b4b93af84d00f60fdb8/79ceb65334e6b54ce10000000a174cb4.html? &version=1909.002

Saving a supplier invoice and saving a service entry sheet are some of the actions that can transfer actual costs for external processing. External processing is a process that involves procuring services from external vendors for project activities. Saving a supplier invoice is an action that records the payment request from a vendor for the services performed and posts actual costs to the project. Saving a service entry sheet is an action that records the delivery of services from a vendor and posts actual costs to the project.

The possible reasons to check if reductions did not reduce the scheduled duration of all internally-processed activities in your project after overall network scheduling are if the maximum reduction level is less than 100 or if the appropriate reduction type is set in the parameters for network scheduling. Reductions are functions that allow you to reduce the scheduled duration of activities and networks by changing their work or capacity requirements based on various strategies and criteria. Reductions can help you optimize yourproject schedule and meet deadlines or milestones. The possible reasons to check if reductions did not reduce the scheduled duration of all internally-processed activities in your project after overall network scheduling are:

If the maximum reduction level is less than 100: The maximum reduction level is a parameter that defines how much an activity or a network can be reduced as a percentage of its original duration. The maximum reduction level can be specified in Customizing for Project System under Structures Operative Structures Networks Define Reduction Strategies 

The various work packages in the project are described as individual activities. Activities are the smallest units of a project that can be planned, executed, and controlled. Activities can be assigned to one or more WBS elements in a project. Activities can also be linked to each other by relationships to define the sequence and dependencies of the work packages.

To control whether the delivery date for an external component assigned to a network activity is defined by the earliest or latest scheduled dates, you can use the scheduling parameters for the network. An external component is a material component that is required for executing a network activity and that is procured externally from vendors or other plants

Requirement class is an object that is relevant in assembly processing to create an assembly order for the SD document. Requirement class defines whether an assembly order is created automatically or manually for a sales order item, and whether it is relevant for availability check, costing, or settlement. Requirement class also controls the assignment of requirements type and account assignment category to the sales order item.

One reason to use expert mode in the valuation method for results analysis is usage of different line ID. Results analysis is a function that allows you to calculate and post values for work in process (WIP), reserves for unrealized costs (RUC), profit from sales order stock (PSOS), and so on. Results analysis uses valuation methods to determine how these values are calculated based on various criteria, such as cost of sales method, percentage of completion method, revenue-based method, and so on. Expert mode is a type of valuation method that allows you to define your own logic and rules for results analysis by using formulas and conditions. One reason to use expert mode in the valuation method for results analysis is usage of different line ID. A line ID is a parameter that identifies a line item in results analysis data. A line ID can have various attributes, such as cost element group, value category, posting indicator, and so on. By using expert mode in the valuation method for results analysis, you can use different line ID for different scenarios or requirements that are not covered by the standard valuation methods.

To set up the requirement date for the component so that it will be in stock 5 days in advance of the assembly activity, you should set up the requirement date aligned with the activity start date and a negative offset of 5 days. The requirement date is the date on which a material component is required for an activity. The offset is a value that shifts the requirement date forward or backward from the activity start or finish date. A negative offset means that the requirement date is earlier than the activity date.

Goods receipt into unvaluated project stock and goods receipt of a non-stock item do not lead to the booking of actual costs to an object. Goods receipt into unvaluated project stock does not affect inventory valuation or accounting documents, therefore no actual costs are posted. Goods receipt of a non-stock item does not affect inventory valuation either, but only updates the purchase order history and statistical delivery costs, therefore no actual costs are posted.
