Calculate freight costs

Hi,
I need to create a report where I can calculate the transport costs of a sales order(s). I know there is standard code that does this (FuGr: V54P)
I tried copying parts of the code but it's too complex without usefull documentation.
Does anyone have idea's around usefull functions, badi's, programs,...
The simulation of deliveries and shipments shoulds stay because we want to see the costs of all carriers first before choosing one.
Regards!
Bert

Hello Bert,
Can u derive this from the Frieght condition in Pricing for the item. If that is the case u can get it using the following logic..
Use Order number to access VBAK. Use KNUMV to access KONV and the Frieght COndition record. U will get the value.

Freight Cost while Goods Receipt in STO

Dear Experts,
In SAP standard STO process, freight cost calculated while Material issued against STO ( 351/641 movement).
Is there any way possible to calculate the freight at the time of goods receipt instead of at the time of Goods Issue..
Thanks in Advance.

Why do you want it at the time of GR?
Anyways, you can not see or change the freight amount in MIGO. And I don't think there is any other way to post the freight amount other than 351/641 goods issue.

How to Calculate Freight and Acquisition Overheads on Material Price

Hi Gurus,
currently i am working in Product costing. my requirement is to calculate Freight and Acquisition overheads on Material Price.i have maintaind rates for condition types ZFRA , ZA2H and ZAOH by using MEK1 transaction code. eventhough system is not calculating this overheads while running CK11n. system showing only material price no other oveheads.
my intension is to estimate the cost for Purchased parts not for Manufacturted parts. for that i have given the priority in the Valuation Variant is Price from purchase record.
can anybody resolve my problem?
Thanks&Regards
Prasad

Hi
Thanks for your reply.According to my clients requirement i need to do material cost estimates for purchased materials thru ck11n.for this i have given priority as price from purchase info record in the Valuation Variant. my mm friends maintaind price in the purchase info record ME11.
In additions to this i also maintained rates for Freight,Acquisition and Customs condition types in MKE1.
Now if i run CK11n, system showing only Material Price which is in the Purchase inforecord but system not calculating any required overheads.
I need to calculate Overheads thru Condition types not thru Costing sheet.
If you see Price Simulation system calculating the Overheads accordingly.but same is not getting populating while running the CK11n.
In Valuation Variant under the Deivery Costs tab I have assign all required Condition types to Valuation Variants and Controlling area accordingly.
I hope that i explained my current problem clearly.can anybody give me the solution
Thanks&Regards

Calculate freight charges in quotation

Hello,
has sb. an idea how to calculate (perhaps via simulating) the freight charges at the stadium of quotation?
A possible scenario has to be to calculate (simulate) the freight costs and then put it to the calculation scheme of the quotation.
Thanks for your support.
BR,
Christian

By implementing Transportation you can perform this activity.
In sales order you can estimate the freight cost and put it automatically on it. On billing document redetermine by copy control the freigth costs and it will impact it on it.
You have to configure the following before:
Logistics Execution > Transportation > Shipment Costs > Define Profiles for Shipment Cost Information
You´ll need a variant or several, depending if you want to estimate cost or also compare the best option from differents vendors. You can create those differents variants (for each scenario) on VT04 transaction.
For configuration guide, please follow this link:

Freight Cost Per Kilometer

Dear All,
Plz give me some idea about how to calculate and determine freight cost per kilometer in shipping cost document.
Thanks & Regards,
PM

You should be able to achieve this by making use of the route determination functionlity in LE (logistics execution).
When you define a route and its different stages (if applicable) you can assign a predetermined distance that is measure in KM.
In pricing determination you then use a condition type for freight that is distance dependant or simply with calculation type = quantity . You may create an access sequence that reads the distance from the route in the document to derive the rate per km for that route which you would have maintained in the condition records.

Shpmnt Freight Cost varies(extra/short material)

Hello,
We have recently implemented Shipment freight cost for Inbound Shipments. Shipment cost is calulated based on weight.
The issue we are facing is:
If In an Inbd/delivery there are two HU and each having 100 cartons(total shipment 200 cartons) and weight is 1000Kg per HU, so assmue total cost of the entire shipment (two HUs) is 2000 USD.
Shipment cost document is created and enter the cost as 2000 USD for entire shipment.
Now While PGR for first HU (inbound delivery) we found that qty is 110 car inplace of 100 cartons,
System calculate the Freight cost as 1100 USD and while PGR of the 2nd HU(inbound delivery) we found the correct qty 100 cartons and system calculate the freight cost as 1000 USD.
The problem is actual shipment cost is 2000 USD whereas system is calculating 2100 USD.....
Has anybody this issue earlier, please share your experience....
Regards,
JPS

Hi Michela,
This is possible by adding one more condition type with blank condition category and negative value in plus/minus field.
please refer the following wiki which gives step by step configuration.
Appreciate if it is useful

Freight costs in Pricing procedure and Shipment costs

What is the difference between freight costs in pricing procedure for a sales document and shipment costs in shipment documents. Arent they meant for the same thing. Why do we have to create them separately.

hello, friend.
freight charges in the sales pricing procedure may be represented by condition type KF00 (standard). this condition type is a surcharge to your customer, meaning there is an inflow into your company. this surcharge may be manually entered (if configuration allows this) in the condition tabs of your sales order or this could automatically be entered if the appropriate condition records (via VK11 or VK31) have been created.
the shipment costs in shipment documents is what your company is billed or quoted by your forwarder, shipper or other transport related agent. the shipment cost data will be used by the system to calculate and settle shipment costs. when you have freight condition records (via TK11), purchase-vendor records and if all route/connection point/etc. settings correct, all shipment cost data will be determined when you do shipment cost document creation. you may also manually enter cost items, depending on the configuration.
hope this helped. is so, will appreciate reward.
regards.

Free goods but want to freight cost updation upon GR

Hi,
Scenario:
I have a PO with 20 line items and header freight cost.
There are few more items in PO which are ticked as free goods.
There is a stock of those materials with certain MAP.
Freight condition has been configured as vendor GR so that it gets loaded on materials upon GR.
Requirement is that
Upon GR of this PO,MAPshould get updated with the freight cost for those materials also which have been marked as free goods.
How this can be achieved ?
Regards,
manOO

Hi Rang,
Thanks for the feedback.However service PO is out of scope as client do not want to go for servicees.
I could not understand your suggestion
<u>you give PO to frieght vendor for freight value & in remarks you mention reciving as FREE GOODS from vendor xxxxx & do GR load cost to material & pay to freight vendor. (this is not advisible, but one solution for your problem).</u>
I have to receive one material via purchase order as a free item but I need to pay vendor for the freight charges that will be incurred to ship this item along with all the other items in the same PO.
Can you please explain me further as what you mean to say in your post.
I should be able to load these freight cost on all the materials in PO including the material with 'free' indiactor.
In short upon GR MAP should affect with freight cost as there will not be value addition of the material since received as free.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance

Posting of Commission Exp to calculate the Cost of Goods Sold

Hi Team,
I do work in an automobile manufacturing organization and is new to SAP FI module. I have a business requirement which I need to fulfill; I would appreciate if all you gurus help me with finding the solution.
Business Scenario: at present, we are posting the following entries to record the commission we paid to dealers for selling vehicles.
Commission Exp (DR)
Customer (CR)
Customer (DR)
Dealer (CR)
With these entries we are not been able to track the commission based on vehicle variants i.e. Toyota GLI, XLI etc.
New Requirement:
To calculate the Cost of Goods Sold for a variant, I need to track the commission expense based on vehicleu2019s variants. Please help me in finding the solution.
Thanks

Thanks for quick response.
Let me give little more details of type of commission entries we have
1) Normal Commission - Fixed commission variant wise and is derived from SD.
2) Additional Commission - No predefined formula, this is totally based on top management discretion. Management decides how much would be paid to a particular dealer.
3) Sliding Commission deduction - Deduction of certain amount from commission on late payments.
4) Additional Sliding Commission - Payment of additional commission based on early payment terms.
Currently, FI department is calculating all these figures on Excel sheets and then post a JV for each type of above mentioned commission.
How can I configure the system to calculate these amounts automatically without involving Excel Sheet help?
and how to post these amounts variant wise along with dealers and customers.

Purchase Order's Freight cost

Dear All,
I'm using SAP B1 2007B SL 0 PL 15. I have problems with the Freight cost on the distribution rule. It will not store the store or update the distribution rule code in PO, GR & Invoice. I have to manually tag the distribution rule code in the journal entry after the Invoices are posted. Does anyone face this problem or know how to solve this?

Reducing the Freight cost on material value for undelivered material

Hi Experts,
Summary : The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material. The freight transport is allowed an under tolearance of 0.5% on the material to be supplied. If the delivered material quantity breaches the 0.5% under tolerance then amount at 1.5 times the cost of material for the shortage is to be deducted from the transporter. A dummy GR will have to be prepared for the undelivered quantity for which we do not want the freight cost to be loaded. The details scenario is mentioned below :-
We have to make a Purchase Order with material code say ABC for procured of some material. Suppose we make a Purchase Order for 100 nos. at a Unit Price of Say Rs. 10/- for Material Code ABC on say Vendor M/s XYZ. A freight condition is maintained in the Conditions Tab and suppose the Freight is Rs. 10 per unit of the material.
While preparing the Goods Receipt through MIGO, in the Freight Tab we select say freight vendor say M/s PQR against the freight condition and post the goods receipt.
While doing Invoice Processing in MIRO, when we enter the combination of Purchase Order and Planned Delivery Cost the system will populate the vendor codes of both the supplier of material and the transporter. On selecting the transporter the freight amount will populate against which the invoice of the tranporter can be processed.
In the Vendor Master of M/s XYZ GR-Based Invoice Verification is activated.
The vendor is allowed an under tolerance of 0.5% (i.e. the vendor should deliver at least 99.50 nos. of the Purchase Order). If the vendor delivers 99.50 or more then there will be no deduction in the freight charges.
But suppose the vendor delivers only 99.4 nos. of the quantity. Then we will prepare the GRIR for 99.4 nos.only. But while processing the MIRO we need to deduct 1.5 times the value of the material from the freight amount for the shortshipped quantity, i.e.
0.1 no (99.5 u2013 99.4) X Rs. 10/- * 1.5 = Rs. 1.5 are to be deducted from the final payment from the freight amount of the transporter.
The material supplier will have to be paid in full 100 nos. of quantity and will raise an invoice for 100 nos. A dummy GRIR for the 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will have to be prepared for processing the invoice for the 100 nos. of the material supplier and a dummy issue for 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will be prepared to remove them from the system.
Hence the freight cost for this 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will also go into the cost of the material and increase the MAP by that amount. Also the goods issue Cost will also have the effect of the freight cost.
We do not want to load the freight cost for the undelivered material in the value of the material.
Can any one please suggest a solution for the same.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
A PO Will be raised for full quantity of material say 100 nos.
The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material.
A freight vendor is maintained at the time of GR for material against the freight condition maintained in the Po.
The freight vendor facilitates the delivery of the material from the vendor to the purchaser for which he is given an under tolerance limit of 0.5%. Any delivery below this tolerance limit, freight amount to the effect of 1.5 times the per unit rate of material x short fall below 0.5% tolerance will be deducted from the freight amount.
A dummy grir will have to be prepared for the short delivered quantity for processing the invoice for the full quantity of the purchase order, as the vendor is going to raise the invoice for full purchase order quantity. The client does not want to load the freight cost of the undelivered quantity on the material value as it will wrongly show the MAP of the material. This shortshipped material will be issued to remove it from the system and the stock will remain for the delivered quantity only. The vendor is subject to gr based invoice verification.
Please suggest a solution.
Thanks in advance.

PO-Freight cost (header, diff currency with items) not distributed when GR

Dear Gurus,
I've one PO with freight cost at header level (1000 VND). In the PO, this freight amount shown to be distributed successfully to line item (value base, line item 1 is 300 VND, line item 2 is 700 VND). But when doing GR, the freight cost of each line item is NOT distributed but equals the total freight amount (line item 1 is 1000 VND, line item 2 is 1000 VND).
In this PO, vendor is international vendor, goods in USD. Freight cost is in local currency (VND)
The configuration for this freight cost condition is at Header level, Group Condition ticked; Calculation type: Fixed Amount; Scale Basis: Value. When the currency of freight cost and goods are the same (all in USD), I have no error as above.
Please help to solve this issue.
Thanks.

Post freight cost to a different a GL account during 411-K for consignment PO Process

We are planning to implement PO consignment for one of the client.
The scenario is, client pays the freight cost to the supplier in advance upon receipt of consignment stock .When consignment stock is moved to own stock (411k), during the movement of the stock we need to create two accounting entries one for the material cost and the other for freight cost such that the freight can be adjusted with advance paid freight cost. Freight cost can be settled manually with another PO but the requirement is moving average price of the material should include the cost of material and freight cost .
For an example if the material cost is $100(PB00) and freight cost is $10(FAR1 - 10%), during 411k it should create two entries one for material cost($100) and the other for freight cost($10) which can be adjusted manually.
We tried by adding freight condition (FRA1) in consignment info record along with PB00 –Gross price and in this case during 411k it is summing both the prices($110) and posting to one GL account and the same settles during MRKO but what we are looking for is how we can split this into $100 and $10 .
I know standard SAP does not support this this during 411k.
I want to know if there is any User exit, pricing procedure, routines, etc... Or any other way that can be used to achieve this requirement. Appreciate more detailed answer

Hi,
   As you know, currently the delivery cost are not supported in consignment and pipeline settlement. The system design is explained in the note: 208555 - MB11 Delivery costs for pipeline and consignment.
   If you want delivery cost in consignment, you have to go for development. There should be additional entry for delivery costs in RKWA table. I am not sure about the feasibility, but still would like to share the below points:
   For creating additional entry in the accounting document while doing MB1B / MB11, you may check the BADI AC_DOCUMENT.
   You may refer the note: 165647 - Documentation: Enhancement RMVKON00 (MM-IV) which explains some enhancements related to consignment settlement.
