Documentary payment in MM - Foreign Trade

Hi all,
I have a question regarding documentary payment in MM, Foreign trade. In SD module, foreign trade there is a nice transaction regarding documentary payment and letter of credit but in MM module is not set up. When I want to enter vendor code there is no field but only customer. So, my question is, is it possible that transaction in menu for MM - foreign trade have transaction to enter documentary payment like letter of credit without vendor field? or there is some settings to be previously done or some field selection to change to be able to enter vendor and not only customer or is not possible at all in MM to use documentary payments but only in SD?
Thanks,
BR

it is only available in SD.
I dont really see a need for this in pruchasing.
This L/C is a guarantee, it guarantees that you as selling company get your money. You need this Documentary payment  in foreign trade to avoid that you sell and ship more than the guaranteed payment, as you may never see any money for the overdelivered quantity.
From a MM point of view, you are just requested to pay when the goods are on the way or have arrived at your site. your bank will not give the money to your vendor if you have not received the goods.,
What would be the benefit of maintaining the same from MM point of view? to avoid that you create orders for more than your bank guarantees the payment? To remind you to open a L/C when the PO is created? (isn't the PO with proper payment terms not already enough )
If you really want to monitor it from MM point of view, then you can create a contract and reference it when creating a PO.

    Hi,
    in the copy control between order and invoice you need to set the 'determine export data' to 'B' so that it will be redetermined in the invoice. After that the relevant foreign trade userexits will work as well.

  • Foreign Trade / Intrastat - data order-related billing (downpayments)

    Hi,
    Shortly we have implemented the down payment functionality in our flows. Because downpayments require order-related billing the intrastat/foreign trade data is not copied into the closing invoice.
    Apparently it is only possible to copy the data from a delivery.
    We are in a make-to-order environment and we still create deliveries but because of the down payments, the invoice is created from the sales order and hence no intrastat data is copied which ofcourse is required ...
    Can't find a suitable user exit for filling this data into the billing document. Also tried using copy data transfer (vofm) filling up tables eikp and eipo but that didn't work.
    The only option open for me at the moment is creating a proforma invoice automatically from the delivery. This document can then be included in the intrastat reporting.
    Is there another solution ?
    with regards

  • Z4 report Foreign trade regulations  - S_ALR_87012405

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if any of you could give me some hint of why Z4 report Foreign trade regulations  - S_ALR_87012405 does not show any data.
    i have posted a FI invoice with SCB indicator from foregin country and get it paid. Even though I maintained the link of GL account with house bank, populate SCB data in house bank, activate the field status for both field status group and posting key, the report does not show any data at all.
    What would be the possible missing setting to show the data in  Z4 report Foreign trade regulations  - S_ALR_87012405 report?
    Thanks in advance for your advice
    Kind regards

    The reason of report RFAWVZ40 does not display the results seems to be
    explained in note 204372
    If the selection option for "Do not report st. cent. bank i" is empty,
    the system classifies all state central bank indicators as not
    reportable in accordance with common logic with selection options. So
    the system does not create a message.
    Also check the following information:
    'Clearing document type", this parameter is intended for a special
    purpose (i.e. for certain document types which should not be regarded
    as payment document), however for the "usual" case of reporting the
    payments in Z4 this parameter should have the default value 'ZZ'.
    Otherwise all document types will be processed in this special logic so
    that no item is reported.

  • Foreign Trade Declarations Step 5 - AP Invoices aren't reported

    Hi Experts,
    I hope you're all well.  I'm hoping you can help me with an Intrastat issue I have please.
    I have noticed that AP Invoice transactions only appear in Step 6 of the Foreign Trade Declarations report if I populated AP Invoice VAT Code with VAT Code E2 which is defined as Input Tax and the EU box is ticked. 
    If I create an AP Invoice with the VAT code I1 then the transaction doesn't appear on Step 6 of the Foreign Trade Declarations report.  VAT Code I1 is set up as Input Tax but the EU box is not ticked for this VAT code.
    Is this correct SAP behaviour please or am I doing something wrong?
    Many thanks for any information.

    Hi,
    Check the Tolerance days in the payment run defaults. Take the days as zero and run the payment wizard.
    In 2005 version available under following path :
    Banking Module > Payment Wizard > Payment Run Default > Tolerance days.
    In 2007 version :
    Administration > Setup > Banking > Payment Run Defaults.

  • Z4 report Foreign trade regulations SCB indicator (central bank key)

    hello all,
    i was wondering what is triggering the Z4 report Foreign trade regulations report?
    Is it the SCB indicator (central bank key)?
    If an invoice is missing that indicator, could it be that the report shows no output?
    You can find the indicator in FB03, go to the line item of the vendor, 'more data' tab.
    Actually the indicator is triggered in MIRO from materials management.
    If the indicator is missing, can it be inserted through another transaction code? I have tried in FB02 but the central bank key indicator isn't changeable...
    Regards,
    Pamela

    Hi Pamela Mungur,
    I came across your thread in SDN regarding Z4 report, I am very greatful if you share your experience on below point:
      1. Is SCB indicator always need to input while posting Invoices (MM or SD) or Can we  input while posting Payment also.
    2. How can we Ensure, user always enter SCB in transaction data, as i cannot make it as mandatory at Field status definition level.
    3. I unable to find the Field to input SCB value while creating invoice through SD module.
    Thanks in advance for your valuable time and effort. Please feel to ask to create new thread if required.
    Thanks...Venkat

  • Foreign Trade - sales/shipping

    Hi Experts,
    I have following two business requirements and was hoping for some clarification and guidance/help from your side:
    1. Ability to ensure that the material shipped complies with Environment Agency regulations (green/amber/red list) as to what material can be shipped into which country (e.g. unprocessed plastics cannot be shipped to China)
    2. Ability to flag materials at a facility that are accredited by CCIC (Chinese Certificate Inspection Company) and to ensure that a shipment to China is only sourced out of a facility with CCIC accreditation.
    Would you possibly know if Foreign Trade standard ECC out of the box is sufficient to cover above? If yes, please specify. If no, please let me know any alternative solution - no enhancements please.

    into One Invoice(ZPDS). Invoice is splitting the reason is giving split to different Header data, Number of Foreign trade is 5,6,7,8. The fogreign trade no is giving system internally delivery header foreign trade screen in organization. The system is giving 4 different foreign trade no in 4 delivereis.How can I do the One Invoice.

    For different SO & Del to merge into a single invouice your Bill to party has to be same in the header data along with that your Billing Document Types has to be unique also payment terms has to be same...hmm one more point is that incoterms also has to be same otherwise your Invoice will split.

  • Foreign trade for free of charge purchase orders

    Hello
    Scenario:
    My company imports tobacco leaf into GB from a different company based in BE, and my company processes the leaf in GB and sends it back to BE. We never own the leaf, and we only charge the BE company a price for the service we provide.
    A purchase order is created for a non valuated material master with 'non-valuated GR' account assignment J and no invoice receipt. Foreign trade data such as commodity code either defaults from material master or is manually entered by PO creator.
    There is no pricing procedure and therefore no GRWR condition value and the statistical value field in the 'declara./values' tab is greyed out. This causes an entry on Intrastat with a zero value, which is incorrect, as we should declare the statistical value of the goods for customs purposes. 
    Aside from adding a value in VEFU and then creating the report using VE33, what ideas do you have for how I could get a statistical value on this PO?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Can just think of a wild work around...well instead of marking the items as free, put in a value and also put in an equal amount of discount. Which will negate the value of the item.
    I dont knw if that will be acceptable by your client..but it is a work around never the less...
    Take care..

  • Invoice split due to mismatch in Foreign trade data

    Hi all,
    While creating a Commercial invoice for Exports with ref to Around 20 Deliveries , the Invoice is getting Split into Two parts, First one consisting of details from 19 deliveries and second consisting of 1 delivery.
    On analysing the Split Analysis , i found that foreign trade data of the two cases differ.
    I checked up in the Master Data (Foreign trade data) as well as Copy control(delivery to billing) which i found to be correct.
    Can anyone please let me know if there is any other reason that this foreign trade data is coming different for this delivery while processing for invoicing.
    Anticipating your replies in this regard,
    Ujjwal

    Hi,
    You can check with as Lakshmipathi suggested, also please check with the Commodity Code, country of origin for the delivery which is getting split, check with the log for foreign trade data at Header and Item level in the delivery.
    One possible reason can be different master data.
    Regards,
