Bill of Lading document

Hi guys. I have a requirement to create a BOL document for print. The BOL document data mostly comes from the shipment document. SAPFORMS will be used to design the layout.
The BOL document is to be printed manually on a customized screen. User would like a button on the screen. Clicking the button will enable the BOL to be printed.
I need some help for the logic to do this. I am used to working with output determination that will automatically issue an output message. Can someone please help me? How would the SAPFORMS layout be linked to the output type to achieve this? Thanks.

In SAP depending on the Application Area number of output types are defined.
For example in SD we have V1, v2, v3 like application areas and for each Application area output types are defined.
For V1 output types are BA00, AN00 etc for V2 it is LD00 for V3 it is RDoo like that.
Again for each output type a printing driver program and a SAP Script or Smartform is attached.
Select the Application type and doublie click.
then displays output types.
select the output type and press on the left side process routines,
then it displays program and script for that output type.
Output type Specifies the kind of output to be produced.
NACE transaction code is for Output type. Here you can configure Output types for application documents.
Suppose for example: you want to generate IDOC after creating a PO.
When you enter all the data in PO and go to messages, Here you need to give the Output types.
In output types you can create condition records also.
NACE has different applications : V1 for Sales, V2 for shipping, V3 for Billing, EF for PO.

Bill of lading in delivery in WM

Hi All - Hope everybody is doing well.
I have a question on bill of lading. At what stage during the delivery creation against STO, we will generate the bill of lading and packing list? the scenario is we will create the delivery against STO from other plant. Further more what will be the configuration we need to do to generate the BOL and Picking list? please help with steps.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
regards,
Khan

A Bill of lading[BOL] is a document issued by a carrier, by a company's shipping department, acknowledging that specified goods have been received on board as cargo for conveyance to a named place for delivery to the consignee who is usually identified.
You can generate a Bill of Lading document before you Goods Issue the outbound delivery. Packing List and Picking List are two different documents. Picking List (Pick Slip) Guides a warehouse user on what needs to be picked against which document. A packing slip constitutes the contents of packing/handling unit information for a delivery/order. This is much like the documetation you find when you open a newly purchased electronic component like say a camera.
In order to use the Packing list PL00 (packing slip in delivery) you must do 'Packing' in the delivery note (edit->packing)..otherwise while printing there would be an error: V1032
You need to issue output from delivery item first VL02N >extras>delivery output>item>PL00
Delivery Note (ouput PL00/LD00 Packing List-Transaction VL74)
The delivery note, (packing List) contains the following information for each line item.
The item number ordered, example 24231
Your order number, since a shipment may contain items from various orders
having your PO # next to each line item will help your warehouse personnel
properly identify the items being received.
Material or IDH number which identifies 24231 in SAP
Quantity Ordered
Quantity Shipped
Net Weight
Number of packages
Batch Code
Quantity/Pack
The BOL can be found in the Output determination for the Transportation [Transaction V/82]
Example:
1. Output determination starts in V7 with output type CMR1 and the assigned access sequence.
2. The access sequence defines the fields with which the key for the condition table is read.
(for example, condition table B017: shipment type of the shipment is read)
3. If the condition record is found, the system proposes an output with the output attributes found in the table.
4. The output proposal (possibly not yet processed) is stored after the document is posted as an output status record in the NAST table.

Line items are not coming on next page in Bill of Lading

When I am printing Bill of Lading, if it has around 8 line items then its printing on the first page, but if line items are more then its not printing the remaining line items on second page.
I have one delivery with 10 line items, when I am printing it then on first page 7 line items are coming and for 8 line item only material is printing and on second page its description is printing but last two line items are not printing at all.
Kindly help me to resolve the issue as it is very critical.

Hi,
Check below points.
Point 1:
When you create a delivery document, you create it for a Shipping Point.
So whatever the line that came in to one delivery has determined same shipping point that you entered in VL01N screen.
Others got a different shipping point and that's why it didn't come to the same delivery document.
Shipping point determined based on below criteria
- Shipping Condition - From customer master
- Loading Group - Material
- Plant - Delivery Plant of the sales order line item
You assign a proffered shipping point for above combination in configuration.
If that combination is not find, those line items are not going in to the delivery.
You can check the log of the delivery document for more information as well.
Point 2:
Check the line item Requested delivery date and the "Selection Date" you entered in the VL01N screen.
Al Requested delivery dates has to be on or before the "Selection Date" you entered in the VL01N screen.
Those line items which has a date more than that will dropped in the delivery.

Anupa

Bill of lading via printer with trays

Dear gurus,
We print our bill of lading with a laser printer with trays. in tray three there are the predifined papers for the bill of lading. that is 4 papers in different colors which are exactly the same. If I do not have to many items on my bill of lading it is printed perfectly and by saying I want 4 print outs we have 4 duplicates on different coloured paper. However, some times the cmr has too many items and it will fill two pages. Then the first two coloured papers are one crm. What I need is to find a way that I can program that if the bill of lading will be more then 1 page, he will print the first page 4 times and then the second bill of lading page , also 4 times so in the end I will have 4 coloured duplicates of every bill of lading page. On this moment I do not have any clew....any advice is welcome.......

Hi,
Can you be more specific on what you need on BOL.
BOL number is a manually entered number on the delivery and shipment documents. No configuration needed.
Additionally BOL can be used as tracking number from the small package carrier. You need to set-up the small package carrier in SAP and using the 3rd party software.
Once the data is provided, next step is printing BOL. This can be done by setting-up the output determination and then using the appropriate SAPScript/webforms etc.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Dharmesh

Bill of lading is not populating

We are entering bill of lading information in MIGO but when we are posting invoice through MIRO Bill of lading field is empty. What can we do to it appear on the MIRO.
Regards
Ram

Dear Ram,
Bill of Lading based MIRO is relevant only for the planned deliver cost (Like Freight etc.)
Please check whether your pricing procedure is having a planned delivery cost condition type. If yes then a DCGR document will get generated and you can do MIRO for that planned delivery cost.
Otherwise Bill od Lading based MIRO is not relevant.

Gaurav

How to create payment term '90 days after Bill of lading + 7 days after...'

Hi all,
I was wondering how you can create this special payment term:
"90 days after Bill of Lading, the calculation of the Net Due Date has to start 7 days after the invoice date".
90 days after Bill of Lading is no problem to create.
The start of the Net Due Date 7 days after the invoice date is a more tricky one.
The transaction code for Payment terms is OBB8.
In the Display View: "Terms of Payment": Details, you can find that the document date is the baseline date (and the start date).
Do someone know how you can change the document date into invoice date ? And if so, how can you add 7 days after the invoice date?
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Pamela

Hi,
thanks for your reply and possible solution.
Unfortunately, i can't change the payment terms to my requirement.
The problem is that I need a variable date (starting from the invoice date, which we don't know yet),
and SAP only allows a fixed date.
If you know how to proceed, let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Pam

Bill of Lading and multiple deliveries

Hi Guru's,
I have a question regarding Bill of Lading and deliveries. We can have multiple deliveries which are related to one Bill of Lading. Normally when I process the per delivery the DESADV IDOC but is there another way to send multiple deliveries based on the same Bill of Lading?
Best regards,
Guido Koopmann

If you mean that you'd like to have multiple deliveries i one IDoc then it's not feasible. Unless you create a custom IDoc, of course. To my knowledge, there is no IDoc for bill of lading. Shipment is pretty much the only document that may include multiple deliveries.
But if you just want to select the deliveries by BOL # and create individual DESADV IDocs for them, then it should be feasible, at least by writing a small "wrapper" ABAP report.

Bill of Lading Numbering

I have a question in regards to the bill of lading numbering scheme that other companies are using.
Currently, we are using the shipment and the stage numbers as the bill of lading number
(i.e. 12345-01, 12345-02, etc.). This number is what prints on the document and is also placed in the BOLNR field in the LIKP delivery table.
Can anyone tell me what the standard bill of lading numbering is or what their company uses? And are they updating the BOLNR field in LIKP with that number?
Thank you,
Maria

Dear Maria
Bill of Lading is a document which is used in export scenarios. Once you despatch the goods from a manufacturing industry to customs, the shipping agent will release a document, which is nothing but Bill of Lading (in short, we call it as B/L) for having received your cargo. This document contains details like
- Exporters name and address
- Ship To Party address
- Notify address if any
- Payment term
- On Board date
On the back side of this document, there would be legal obligations printed.
Once you negotiate this document along with export invoice and packing list, via your bankers, who in turn, will route the document to the importers' bank for honouring payment. Only on producing this Bill of Lading, the importer can clear the cargo. So the number range will differ for one export invoice to another and we can use the field BOLNR in LIKP table

Bill of Lading : Forwarding Agent/Carrier data

Hello,
On Bill of Lading report no data are displayed in 'Forwarding Agent/Carrier' section.
Which kind of data do I have to setup to displayed data in this section ?

This might helps
You can create a Bill of Lading category for each delivery leg's Ship
Method/Carrier you use or define one Bill of Lading category for all Ship
Methods/Carriers. The advantage to having a different Bill of Lading
sequence for each carrier is that you could easily identify the carrier
by looking at the Bill of Lading number.
In addition to creating document categories by Ship Method/Carrier, you
can tie a category to a specific delivery's pick-up location. This
provides the opportunity to have a different BOL sequence for the same
carrier departing from a different location. An example of this would be:
For a Viking Freight shipment departing from warehouse 1 the Bill of
Lading number could look like this: WH1-Viking-12345
For a Viking Freight shipment departing from warehouse 2 the Bill of
Lading number could look like this: WH2-Viking-54321

Digital Signature - Bill of Lading

Hi,

Thanks

Hi Sunil,
A Bill of lading (BOL) is a document issued by a carrier, e.g. a ship's master or by a company's shipping department, acknowledging that specified goods have been received on board as cargo for conveyance to a named place for delivery to the consignee who is usually identified. The term derives from the noun "bill", a schedule of costs for services supplied or to be supplied, and from the verb "to lade" which means to load a cargo onto a ship or other form of transport.
The BOL can be found in the Output determination for the Transportation [Transaction V/82]
Example:
1. Output determination starts in V7 with output type CMR1 and the assigned access sequence.
2. The access sequence defines the fields with which the key for the condition table is read.
(for example, condition table B017: shipment type of the shipment is read)
3. If the condition record is found, the system proposes an output with the output attributes found in the table.
4. The output proposal (possibly not yet processed) is stored after the document is posted as an output status record in the NAST table.
Hope this will help.

Bill of Lading in SD

Hi Friends,
Can anybody let me know how to generate the output for the Bill of Lading from SD perspective?
Cheers
Ivy

Hi,
Have a look in table NAST for your type *LSR.
If you find already some entries, this is correct.
Then you can use report RSNAST00 to execute those messages (again).
If nothing is selected, check the select for NAST to find the missmatch in the where-clause. Just change the NAST table or the message settings in the document.
regards,
Siddharth.

Unknown characters being displayed while Printing Bill of Lading(BOL)

Hello all,
From SAP 4.7D, while printing the output using SAP-script for Bill of Lading, some unknown characters(Eg: 10H0O0S0G), a combination of letters and numbers being printed in the begining and also in the bottom of the output document.
This is happening only in PRD enviroment and it works fine in DEV and QA instances.
The document gets printed in EPSON printer. Since this is not an issue in DEV and QA, I would assume that it has something to do with the printer.
If anybody experienced similar issues in the past OR know the reason for this particular issue, please address this one.
I would really appreciate the feedbacks and reward the points for the right solutions.
Many Thanks,
-G

Hi,
Is this problem is happenning only with Bill of lading? If that is the case, it should not be a problem with printer. If there is a problem with the printer driver it should affect the complete form itself.
If you want to test the printer driver, compare the device type maintained for the EPSON printer in both QA and Production.
Hope this helps you.

Reg Bill of lading

Hi all,
I have an requirement to grt Bill of lading data(BOL) for a delivery(likp-vbeln). I noticed BOl maintained in LIKP table but no values updated. Can any one let me know where can i fetch the data of BOL?
Also i need to know the tables related to Invoice created with respect to the ASN no?
Thanks in advance,
Sashti

In delivery at header level, there is a tab "Shipment", where you can see the field (Field name BOLNR) BillOfLad. You can make use of this.
To correlate this with billing document, you need to table join LIKP (for bill of lading number) and VBRK
(for billing reference - field VBELN)
thanks
