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

  • 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,

    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.

  • 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.
    Best regards,
    Anupa

  • In MIRO the field Bills of Lading I want to pick PO amt & Del cost

    Hi
    We have a requirement from customer by using miro tcode when they select use bill of lading it shoud pick po amount and delivery cost default it is picking delivery cost.plz give me solution for picking both amounts
    can anyone suggest me an idea can go for badi/ exit or implict enhancement.
    please  give a solution as soon as possibel.

    Hi,
    As of my understanding, you are trying to get the PO Number from the MIRO into BADI. If so, you can get it through Parameter ID like
    'GET PARAMETER ID '<ID>' FIELD <variable>.
    For PO Number field 'BES'.
    In general to know Parameter ID of any screen field, go to technical information from F1 help and know the Data element and Parameter ID will be assigned to that Data element.
    If my understanding is wrong, can you please elaborate your query.

  • 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

  • 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.
    Regards,
    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

    with little changes or
    you can use the smartform
    Z_VICS_BILL_OF_LADING
    or you can use the script <b>RVDELNOTE</b> of delivery note
    or use SD_SHIPMENT_CMR  (driver program is  ZRVADTR01)
