Drop Shipment Flow

Hi,
Can we avoid PR & PO approvals in Drop Shipment Process Flow in R12.
And also can we have different PR & PO Approval Hierarchy for the Drop Shipment Flow. I mean, for normal PR & PO we have an Approval Hierarchy and we dont want to disturb this Hierarchy, so I want to go for different Approval Hierarchy for the Drop Shipment Flow.
Regards,
Khan.

I believe you can have drop ship requisitions come out in approved status. But PO's have to be approved.
You can assign all drop ship items to a different item category.
And then modify the approval groups such that even the lowest position has $100m approval limit for that specific item category.
This way, as soon as the PO is submitted for approval, it gets approved.
Hope this answers your question

  • Intrastat Drop Shipment

    Hello,
    we have the following scenario, which is a Drop Shipment.
    Goods recipient (and ByD user): located in UK (EU)
    Supplier is located in Switzerland (Non-EU)
    Ship-from location (direct to UK): is in Germany (EU)
    Question 1: Is this a Intrastat relevant process for UK?
    Question 2: What is the trigger here: Money (from CH) or Goods (Germany)?
    Question 3: Assuming, it is INTRASTAT relevant, how needs the inbound confirmation (or any other posting) to be done, that this transaction will be craped by a INTRASTAT declaration run?
    Thanks and best regards
    Marco

    Hi Marco,
    My personal opinion is that the flow described by you is not Intrastat relevant, since Switzerland is not an “Intrastat” country.
    In the form you made the second question, I think that the event's trigger there should be “Money”, or better where the Supplier is located (business residence of the company - CH) since you need to declare goods:
    bought or sold
    transferred within the same legal entity
    sent for process
    sent as part of a contract for services
    supplied free of charge
    on long-term hire, loan or lease
    to be installed or used in construction
    lost or destroyed - if goods dispatched from the UK are lost or destroyed in transit they should be recorded on the supplementary declarations, this does not apply to arrivals
    between EU member states (and that is not the case).
    The ship-from location (Germany) should not be relevant because
      “You don’t have to declare certain other movements of goods. These include goods in transit, goods sent or returned after repair and goods being moved temporarily within the EU.”
    Hope this helps you,
    Best Regards,
    Antonio

  • Subcontracting Drop Shipment

    Hello SAP gurus,
    we want to perform a drop shipment from a subcontractor to one of our plants. The Subcontracting is performed at the plant A. But the delivery should go to the plant B directly via drop shipment from the subcontractor. The plant A and plant B belong to different company codes. For this purpose, no delivery should be created in the SAP system.
    Does anyone know how this could will work.
    Best regards
    Dieter

    Hello Dëv Päträ,
    your understanding was absolutely correct. The goods issue from factory A to the Subcontractor and the goods receipt in the plant B.
    Here the extend to my last statement: The flow of goods: It is now a goods issue  / delivery that is to be posted by the Subcontractor - not in our SAP system - and the goods receipt in plant B - is to book by one of us.
    The invoice flow: The Subcontractor provides an invoice to the Company Code of plant A. Then, the Plant A an invoice to the Company Code of plant B.
    Best regards
    Dieter 

  • Drop shipment across ledgers/OU.

    Hi,
    Has anyone implemented or knows how drop shipment functionality across operating units flow works?? Any inputs is appreciated.
    Thanks!!
    Bali

    Hi,
    OM supports dropshipment across OUs, LEs and SOBs from release 11.5.10 onwards. With this functionality, Sales order is created in ,say, OU1 and it is sources from a supplier and supplier site which is in ,say, OU2. These 2 OUs (OU1 and Ou2) may or may not belong to the same SOB.
    From the sales order, user can have the view only ability to the PO which is created in another OU.
    Once the shipment is done from the supplier site to the end customer, then corresponding intercompany invoice transactions are created between the 2 OUs.
    For further information, you may refer to the section "Drop Ship Across Sets of Books" in the OM Users' Guide.
    Hope this helps.

  • Centralized purchasing operating unit in drop shipment cycle

    Hi all,
    In multiple operating units, is there a way to use drop shipment cycle with a central Purchasing Operating Unit?
    I mean creating sales order in OU 1, Importing Purchase Requisition and auto create Purchase Order in OU 2(Central Purchasing OU), and receiving in OU 1, then shipping from OU 1
    Thanks for all,

    Are you sure Inter-org transfers will work for One OU to other??

  • Change document serie when using a drop shipment warehouse

    Hey all,
    I have the following question:
    We have a customer wich has 2 document series related to purchase orders.  When we use a drop shipment warehouse in our sales documents the SAP system runs the procurement wizard to add a purchase orders related to the sales order.
    Now our customer wants to choose the correct document serie to post the purchase order in.
    I've already tested this with SAP 8.81 PL 08 but for the moment this is not supported.
    If you take a look at the MRP functionality, there is a possibility to change the document series when creating Purchase orders from the order recommandation screen
    Will this be on the roadmap of SAP?

    Drop-down lists work a little differently than expected; in the Change event the rawValue contains the previously selected text.  That's why it works the second time.  The current selection is contained in: xfa.event.newText

  • Drop-shipment PO from the Vendor to the Customer directly

    Dear All,
    Can anyone one advice any drop-shipment scenarios how the Standard SAP should look like?
    Thank you very much,

    Chee Wee

    Hi
    This is called as Third Party scenario.
    In this sales order is raised with proper item category due to which system automatically creates PR
    Then with referance to this PR PO is raised . Vendor directly delivers material to your customer and raises invoice on you . Who do MIRO posting for vendor .In this case GR is not done at our end but at customer end

  • Drop shipment to generate IC proforma invoice

    We are using standard drop shipment model. Before sending the goods to end customer, we need a proforma invoice between the sending company and receiving company for Custom clearing purpose. Is that possible?
    For example, Sales Org A100 (Company Code 1000) sales 100PC of goods to end customer, but ship from plant BB01, which is under a different company code (2000). Can we generate a proforma invoice under company code 2000, sales org A200 to A100? Our intercompany pricing model is material + 15% of margin.

    Hi Koffer,
    Based on the inputs provided by you it looks like a simple intercompany billing process. Since you are using the shipment model I think the customer billing getting created after saving the shipment (Thru Activity profile). Now to create the intercompany billing from Company code 2000 to Company code 1000 again go to VF01 and give the same delivery document number then it will create an intercompany billing document (IV).
    Let me know when the prob is resolved.

  • Drop Shipment:India Localisation

    Hi,
    Does Drop shipment work in the perspective of India Localisation taxes?
    If anybody has any experience in this, kindly highlight..
    Regards,
    Sayantan

    Prashant,
    Drop shipment is used in a scenario for example where you are in construction business and are constructing a warehouse/building and want to purchase materials like bricks for the building, you would purchase the brick from a vendor, however you would request the vendor to have the shipment go directly to the construction site rather than the your/contractor’s office who is buying the material for the construction.
    Therefore, it’s a shipment address that is not associated with master data.
    Hope it helps.
