Create Shipment Cost Document by interface without shipment

Hi,
is there a possibility to create a shipment cost document by an interface from an external transportation planning system without having LE-TR shipments in the ERP system?
We would like to use the shipment cost document for the freight cost posting.

Hi Ralf,
I dont think you can process Shipment cost Document, without creating a shipment in SAP.
If your External Transport system can provide you a report lets say in excel format then you can use "FB60" to create an invoice.
Problem here will be to compare the data sent by External transportor to actual. for this you can develop a report in SAP system based on your requirements to calculate frieght cost.
Once Excel file will be receivied from transporter you run the report in sap compare the data, if found inline process the invoice in FI with FB60
I hope this makes sense.

Paresh

Changes log for shipment cost document

Hello all,
We are using shipment cost documents in both inbound and outbound processes, and currently changes in the SCD are not logged anywhere.
How can I keep track after the changes in the SCD?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Dikla

Hi Syed Hussain,
The flag for change documents for the shipments is already set.
My problem is with the shipment cost document and not the shipment it self.
When I create a shipment cost document it reflects in tables CDHDR and CDPOS as changes of the shipment statuses,
but when I change the shipment cost document after the creation - it does not show anywhere.
Are you familiar with a flag like the above, but for shipment cost documents?

How to update sales order number (KAUFN) characteristic in the profitability segment of the PA document created at the time of service entry sheet confirmation, as a result of shipment cost document

Hi,
We have a scenario wherein we create shipment cost documents against delivery. As a result of shipments fully transferred, a PO for freight vendor is automatically created and a service entry sheet confirmation happens. As a result of service entry sheet confirmation, we have Financial accounting, Controlling and profitability analysis documents created. We have a requirement wherein we need to have the characteristic “sales order number (KAUFN)” populated in the profitability analysis document created as a result of service entry sheet confirmation.
Could someone please advice how could this be attained in COPA. Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi Ajay,
Thank you for the quick update.
The document is updated to COPA through OKB9 settings. The profitability segment is updated with fields like customer, product, company code, plant, sales area data, profit center, etc; however the sales order number is missing.
Could you please elaborate further how could FI substitution be implemented to call for the FM COPA_PROFITABILITY_SEGMENT through user exit? Are you recommending the substitution through GGB1? What could be the possible validation to call for the user exit to be implemented?

Hi
On double clicking on the item level, respective item details of the material is displayed and then click SHIFT+ F6 to see the COSTCENTER in the shipement cost document.
Configuration:
1) In Item category configuration account assigment category is Cost Center.
Logistics Execution>Transportation>Shipment Costs>Shipment Cost Document>Shipment Cost Types and Item Categories-->Define item categories
2) In the Transaction code OKB9 Costcenter is assigned to the company code , in order to automate the determination of CO assignments in case of Shipment cost document creation
Logistics Execution>Transportation>Shipment Costs>Settlement>Automatic Determination of CO Assignments

Create purchase order from shipment cost document

Hi Experts,
I would like to know how a purchase order type is linked to a shipment cost document so as to create purchase orders automatically when I do transfer posting to the vendor from the shipment cost document. How system automatically finds out the PO type and creates purchase order.
Thanks,
Emaya

Hi,
Thanks. I have made all those mentioned changes already, and infact I am able to create purchase orders(PO Type NB) automatically when I do transfer posting, but I would like to know, why NB type only? why not some other purchase order types? Suppose if I create a new PO type by copying NB with new number ranges, how to link it to my shipment cost document?
Please comment.
Regards,Emaya

Account assignment category in Auto created PO from shipment cost document

Hi
During shipment cost settlement PO generation is mandatory .
In the configuration of Shipment cost item category I have taken Account Assingment Category as K
When PO is created automatically the Acct Assignment Category taken is U which is grayed out .
I want to know why does system propose U in PO
If i want to change the default value proposed by the system in PO from U to M where is the setting done
Can you please suggest a solution
Thanks and Regards
Sunil Iyer

Please read OSS note 506605.
It seems that accout assignment "U" is hard coded in case of PO created from shipment cost document and you can define your own rule via "EXIT_RV54POCR_007".

Freight capitalization for STO process using shipment cost document

Dear MM experts
I have been testing and trying to charge freight to material using transportation module. I know how to do it in simple STO process without SCD (shipment cost document) but I am not able to do it with SCD.
I have searched and tried every link I found on SCN. Unfortunately there are many open threads and non of them is answered or giving complete solution. For example I have tried this link where Ajit Kumar has explained the scenario in detail I am but unable to achieve my result. I have also tried other links and SAP note 427944 as well.
Now what thing confusing me is accounting entries and documents/steps where these accounting entries will be posted.
My current process is like this in plant to plant transfer under same company code
STO > OBD > Shipment Document > PGI > Accouting Entry with 641 movement type. Material account debit and same account credit. > Shipment Cost document > GR with 101 without any accounting entry > Transfer freight cost to FI using Freight Service PO determination > Accounting Entry Freight Outward Expense Debit and Freight Clearing Account Credit > MIRO > Accounting Entry Freight Clearing Debit and Vendor Credit
As you can see we are booking freight as an expense and not charging to material. Now what I want is that freight should be charged to material. If I am sending material from plant P000 to plant P201 under same comapny code then freight charges should be added in material cost in plant P201.
I have done FRB1 condition type with accrual and copy shipment cost tick mark and other stuff suggested in all those threads but it is not working.
My requirement is to understand the points where and what accounting entries will be created as per my new scenario which is same as old one except one difference which is to charge freight to material instead of booking expense in freight service PO.
Lets take an example that material cost price is 100 and freight charges is 50. Now as per old threads at the time of GR against OBD system will create accounting document with 150 debiting the stock in plant P201. What about credit? If we have added freight here then what about 2nd accounting entry in my first scenario in which freight expense is debited and clearing account is credited? Could anyone please explain accounting entries and points where these entries will be posted?
Another thing is that is it only possible with moving average price to charge freight to material or can we do this with standard price as well using some standard or customized solution?
Detailed and easy to understand answer will be highly appreciated.
Thank$

Hi Moazzam ;
Firstly, you can benefit Badi/s in package VTRA which is given belowed.
Secondly , i think that shipping method --> create sto with delivery --> create shipment document and shipment cost document (problem is starting so system will be create PO and service entry sheet automatically , can you try shipment document is non-related with cost document.
Thirdly , you can post invoices charge to material with miro , if you success to direct freight costs to stock account (BSX).
Also , you can benefit doc. sap behaviours for Std price/ Map --> Planned & unplanned delivery costs in mm
I hope , you can manage your process ; for me standart way is the best.

Free PO with shipment costs from shipment cost document

Hello,
We have a scenario where materials is received free from vendor but shipments costs are still paid to the vendor.
For shipment costs, we are creating inbound delivery against PO, then Inbound shipment and inbound shipment cost document.
The requirement is that shipment costs should get updated in Moving avg price.
But If I am marking Purchase order as Free, shipment costs are also not getting updated during GR as system also considers shipments free of charge.
Is there a way to handle this problem.
We are creating GR through vl32n and not through MIGO.
Regards
Karan

Hi,
You can try this solution.
1.Do not tick the free indicator
2.Create a condition type for discount and put 100% discount for that condition.
3.Create a condition type for shipment as a value (delivery cost) without accruals tick in the codition type(customizing).
4.Enter the shipment cost for this condition.
5.Set the pricing procedure in such a way that the gross price of the PO will not consider this shipment cost.Hence the gross price of the PO will be zero (Free of cost) but the net price will consider the shipment cost.
This shipment cost will get loaded on to inventory.
As you have defined the shipment condition type as delivery cost condition type , you can change the vendor in details of the condtion if required.

Delivery costs:Conditioning GR according to shipment cost document

Hello all,
In case I want the delivery costs to come from the shipment cost document, I have to use the correct confirmation control key and the correct condition type in the PO.
Also, I need to have a relevant shipment cost document so that the system will know from where to take the costs.
My question is this:
Is there a way to customize the system so that if no such relevant shipment cost document exists,
I won't be able to perform GR?
Please advice.
Regards,
Dikla

Hi Gaurav,
what exactly your requirement?
plz specify why you want to relate both the doc's-
for what purpose?
Gavrav,
I have checked Table:VFKP
goto VFKP- enter shipment cost no: XXXXXXXXX
check the details: External Id1 is nothing but your shipment doc number.
Bcoz u create shipment cost doc wrt shipment doc number.
this shipment doc will store in "External ID1" filed in shipment cost doc item level - VFKP table.
check n confirm
