Drop shipment Orders Question

hi experts ,,,,
1- i create a sales order with one line and the source for this line is EXTERNAL to get the goods from the supplier and move it to customer directly
2- run Requisition Import in Oracle Purchasing to generate purchase requisitions for the processed order lines. and approve it
3- create purchase order for this requestion and approve it
4- Make receipt at inventory for this PO
the problems are :-
1- the AR Invoice for this sales order, i can't see it from the order although the status of the order is "Invoice Interface - Complete"
2- I can't create the AP Invoice for the Purchase order created , and generate error when match with receipt say , you must receieve the po first ,
So when i open the receieve transaction for to receieve according to po it return no lines (it is logical because the goods ship to customer directly)
Urgent Please
thanks

I think you are not logged into the correct operating unit when you are trying to look up the AR invoice or AP invoice.
Make sure that the operating unit on the sales order/po is the one you use when creating/viewing invoices.
Hope this helps

Back to Back Orders and Drop Shipment Order

Hi All,
Can someone enlightment me with the difference between this two orders. Whats the difference?

Hi,
BACK TO BACK ORDER
This process comes in Global Trade Management
Trading Companies are basically huge business coordinators - they connect suppliers with customers, then take percentage of the contract value from both sides as a commission/finders's fee. Essentially, trading companies make their profits by facilitating transactions between companies. One main / core process is the back-to-back business, which is when we have a known customer and vendor when the deal is contracted.

DROP SHIPMENTS
This process comes when you are doing third party business,
where vendor ship material directly to customer and raise invoice to your compant and latter you raise inovice to your customer
In third-party order processing, your company does not deliver the items requested by a customer. Instead, you pass the order along to a third-party vendor who then ships the goods directly to the customer and bills you. The standard sales order automatically creates a purchase requisition for the materials to be delivered by the third-party vendor.
In this scenario, the vendor sends a shipping notification. The incoming invoice from the vendor updates the billing quantity, so that the customer-billing document is only possible after entering the invoice from the vendor.
If the customer does not accept the delivered goods from the third party vendor, the customer disposes of the goods. A credit memo is issued to the customer reversing the revenue and cost of goods sold. Then a MM credit memo is created for the third party vendor. A statistical goods receipt reversal is performed for the goods in order to close out the original purchase order. The vendor credit memo may initially be blocked for payment, if previous agreement for this with vendor exists.

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

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??

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,

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

Changes to Drop Ship Orders with configurations/star items

Hi,
Can someone in this group clarify a few things with respect to changes to drop ship orders that has configured/star items. The CTO guide says that we cannot do configuration changes on the sales order, if the related PO is 'Approved'. There is a processing constraint that prevents it.
-->So can we cancel PO and the Purchase Requisition, then de-link the configured/star item on the sales order and then do configuration changes?
-->Assuming that the PO is NOT 'Approved', then we can do configuration changes on the sales order, so what happens to the PO. Does the PO get cancelled or the old configured/star item's PO line gets cancelled? The guide says it depends on the status of the PO. Its a bit ambiguous.
Can someone who has tested this function in R11i or R12 share their experience?
Thanks,
Nitin

The PO changes are not reflected automatically on the SO.
However, you can run the "Sales Order and Purchase Order Discrepancy Report" in Order Management. This report will at least give you the drop ship orders that don't match.
Hope this answers your question

Configuration guide for drop shipments

Hello all,
Pl. post any link/documents/Configuration guide for configuring the drop shipment process in SAP.
Thanks,
Maxx

Maxx,
I assume when you say "Drop shipments", you are referring to the process where a customer orders product from your company; you procure the product from a Vendor, the Vendor ships the product directly to the Customer; and you invoice the customer. SAP calls this Third party order processing. SAP has two Best Practices, Here are the Business Process docs, and configuration guides.

Plant-Verified Drop Shipment

On the 8125 reports Presort leaves some fields empty and I cannot find any options to turn them on in the reports section of my job setup. Filling out these fields by hand on multiple 25 entry point jobs takes a good amount of times and our people would like to avoid as much manual entry as possible.
Here are the fields that seem like they should be available to be pre-filled by Presort and are not pre-filled.
Field #21 Total Pieces
Field #22 Total Weight of Mailing

Thank you for the reply.
The reason that we are asking about it is that the postal workers are bringing this up.
Basically, it is a lot of work to go find out how many pieces there, how much they weigh, and record that information. Do the lookup and recording for 24 different jobs with 2-5 entry points each job is quite an undertaking. Not to mention the number of reprints we have to do because someone messed up a hand written number and they have to try again, too bad we can't white-out mistakes anymore.
So, I guess maybe a better question should have been...
Though we realize that Presort does not currently allow us to output the Total Pieces, and Total weight of the drop shipment on the 8125, is there any plan to add such a feature, do we just need to tell the Post Office it is not going to happen, or do we need to put in a request to have that feature added?

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
