Foreign Purchase - Freight Charges

Dear Gurus,
I have an issue for freight charges. It's a new implementation and i want to map this scenario in SAP.
For foreign purchase, My client receives and move their Material at the port area by hiring any transport delivery services they can find.
Once the goods has been delivered to our WH, the Material will not be received and marked it as suspended for sometimes until the Finance dept. finalizes the freight charges.
The freight charges must not be included on the liability to the vendor.
I did a simulation of this scenario by creating a Purchase Order and on the item details, condition tab, 1 selected condition type FRB1 and changing the condition details and selecting other vendor.
After doing the purchasing cycle till finishes the Invoice verification, i checked FBL1N but the vendor line item shows the freight charges has been charge to the foreign vendor.
How can we do or map this in SAP Purchasing?
Regards,
Ber

Hi,
   I think the your issue is because you selected "Goods/Service items + Planned Delivery cost" option in MIRO and posted everything to the main vendor.
   If the material and freight vendors are different, please ensure that the invoice is done separately for goods and planned delivery cost. Go to MIRO and select the planned delivery cost option first and enter the PO number. If there are multiple freight vendors, system will gibe a pop up asking for the vendor. You can select the required freight vendor and proceed. If there is only one freight vendor, the same will be automatically populated in MIRO Header. Enter the details and post the planned delivery cost.
   For the material cost to the main vendor, select the "Goods/services" option in MIRO and enter the PO number. Here, system will default the foreign vendor and you can enter the material cost and post.
   Test the scenario and revert back.

Purchase Analysis Excluding Freight Charges

Dear Expert,
Our purchase analysis report by ap invoice is exclusive freight charges, is it the norm? Is there anyway to include freight in the purchase analysis so that we can reconcile it against our purchase report?

Scenario on Purchasing Process - Freight Charges to Different Vendor

Hi Experts,
We have a business scenario here that we want to implement on the MM - Purchasing Process.
My Client's industry is on Selling Mixed Concrete. Every time they make Contract with Scheduling Agreements, for Raw Materials like Cement 20MM or DUST, on each available Plant from a partner company on a different location. Some of the Location are not inside the country as well.
When we do Scheduling Agreement, we do a blank quantity for example, 30,000 for 20MM on Plant A and 10,000 for 20MM on Plant B. During the creation of Schedule Lines, we key in differect schedules of delivery (incl PGR). Then by the end of the Period, we create a Vendor Invoice.
However on some delivery item, we have a scenario where from a specific Vendor A, we have a Vendor B that delivers our Materials to our Plant (Transporter Vendor). So we have to create another Invoice for them. We have to have 1 Invoice for the Supplier and 1 Invoice for the Transporter Vendor.
I understand that SAP can do 2 Vendor assignment on PO, 1 for Material Goods and 1 for Freight Charge. The Amount will sum up per Ordered Item and during PGI, the Material Cost will be based on this amount. I'm okay with the first statement but the summed amount is not okay with some scenarios.
The problem with some scenarios is that we should not base the Freight Charge on the schedule quantity. We agreed that the Quantity to be considered for Freight Charge is based on their Shipment Tonnage Agreement (which is weighed on the Vendor 2's side). Then for the Schedule Line Qty, we have to take the Average Weight from our side and from their side, and that should be the Schedule Line Qty. The Amount to be posted in PGR line item should be the amount from the Schedule Line Qty and the Freight Charge based on the Shipment Tonnage Agreement and the Material Cost will be valuated with the sum of these values. At the end of the Month, we create an Invoice for the 2 Vendors at the same time: one with Freight Charge the other on is the Stock Amount.
So for this requirement, is there a way we can add another Quantity, based on the Shipment Tonnage Agreement to calculate the Freight Charge inside, And the Transporter Vendor, in the Schedule Line Conditions to be included in the PGR?
Please suggest me configurations to do this also.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Hi Cruz,
If your requirement is to bill on the monthly average basis for the freight vendor, you can create new condition type for freight based on quantity. Use the calculation type 'M' - Quantity monthly price, in conjunction with the scales and use the scale basis 'C' if the freight cost is fixed based on your shipment agreement.
If your agreement is based on no.of shipments use the scale basis 'S' - no. of shipping units.
Even if these two are not suiting use the scal basis 'G' - formula and define the calculation based on your requirement.
Once this is configured for the condition type. Then maintain the conditiona values accordingly.
Hope this is helpful.

Hope Adobe can change this.

So I cancelled the MIGO document and MIRO document to change the freight charge in PO.Although I have cancelled the both i cannot change the Freight charge in the PO.
How to solve this?

Refer the OSS Note :: 457511
Is it possible to change or add delivery costs in the purchase order after a goods receipt has been executed?
Answer:
No, this should not be possible. The system generates error message V1631 'You cannot enter new delivery costs' (V1631). Important: If your system does not behave in the manner described, this is an error that can be corrected using Notes 187694 and 196884. This affects the earlier Support Packages of Release 31I, 40B, 45B and 46B (you will find more detailed information in the two notes mentioned).
For the changeability of delivery costs after an invoice receipt, see Note 651798 and Note 720191, or Note 549408.
The existence of held delivery cost invoice documents must be checked manually and has to be considered.
Delivery costs must not be entered again or changed if all follow-on documents were cancelled for the purchase order item, unless there were no delivery costs for the posted documents. Otherwise there is no guarantee that continued processing will run without errors.
If you change the Customizing for existing delivery costs, the system does not read this either in a purchase order with an existing goods receipt. The new Customizing settings only take effect when you create a new purchase order.
Of course, the condition values of time-dependent conditions can still be changed even after a goods receipt has occurred. See question four for information on how to change the master condition values.
Please note:
The restrictions on changing delivery costs as described above have only been developed over time. This is not due to changed functions, rather previously we did not know that making changes could sometimes lead to subsequent irreparable errors.
In particular, when you post invoices for delivery costs, the logic considers delivery costs that have already been posted (even if they have since been cancelled) AND the data for delivery costs from the database (as displayed in the purchase order). During processing, you have no way of knowing if this information is no longer compatible, nor any way to discover the cause, and this leads to incorrect processing.
You should therefore proceed as follows:
If delivery costs were entered incorrectly, you must cancel all related purchase order items (reverse all documents) and enter a new purchase order item with the correct delivery costs. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that further processing will be correct.
If your delivery costs are changed regularly, you should use master conditions.
Additional note:
If you have manually changed or maintained conditions in the purchase order, under certain Customizing settings when you run a new price determination after a goods receipt, a condition may be determined twice. For more information, see Note 456691, question 26.

How to close Automatic PO freight charges

Since there are Shipment Cost Module implemented, there are automatic PO created called "automatic PO generation for freight charges". These POs has no GR perform. Kindly please advise on how to handle it otherwise the POs will kept always open.
Below is the flow of the whole scenario :
1. SO creation (va01) using XXXX order type with the respective sales area
2. OD creation (VL01n)
3. Shipment number creation (vt01n) and include the above OD
4. Shipment cost creation (VI01)
5. Once the above is created, each line item in the shipment cost document will auto generate a PO. Note : E.g : freight charges is a line item in the shipment document and in the scheduled background Automatic PO generation for freight charges generated.

I think you are using service PO (Item Catogery D)
By default setting in SAP , Delivery complete indicator will not occur in service PO,
Check in field selection status definition via IMG ---> Material Management ---> Purchasing ---> Purchase Order -> Define Screen Layout at Document Level)----Select Field Selection Key "PT9F" , Select the Gr/IR control and then check the delivery completion indicator (Optional Entry).

Freight charges to be loaded on inventory

Hi,
In Import process, I want the freight charges to be loaded on inventory.
What should I do? I have two conditions ZFR1 for % & ZFB1 for Freight value.
Please explain in details. Also explain where these changes will reflect??
Thanks in advance,
Piyush

For freight charges to be loaded on the inventory
Proceed as follows
-for the condition types remove the accrual flag &
in the Purchasing calculation schema remove the account key & accrual keys for the freight condition types.
This will post your freight costs on the material account.
for e.g Gross price is 100 , freight is 20. at time of GR total value of Inventory will be 120.
hope this is how you want....reward if useful
Thanks & Regards

Freight Charges Distribution

Dear All,
I have a scenario for Freight Charges in Purchase Order.
The Purchase order has two freight vendors, both will be transporting the material on qty basis.
How to handle this situation?. If i maintain the freight condition two times, both the values are getting loaded.
Gross Price: 100$
Qty: 100 MT
Freight: 0.5$/MT ( 1st Vendor)
Freight: 0.5$/MT (2nd Vendor)
Kindly advice me on this regard
Thanks & regard
Panneer

Hi,
If you have two transport vendors who are involved in each receipt, you can maintain freight conditions twice and you can maintain two different vendors for each condition. But in this case both the values will get loaded to material cost which should be obvious.
if you have a case where any one of the vendor may supply the material and the vendor is known only at the time of GR or the partial deliveries of a PO are delivered by 2 different vendors, then you can maintain the exact freight vendor at the time of GR in freight tab in itemddetails in MIGO. For this however, the fright condition needs to have a setting in control data. Go to SPRO- > MM -> Purchasing -> conditions - > define condition types . here for field Vendor at Gr tou mantain appropriate setting.

Assign Project Code to Freight charges in AP Invoice

Project Code field is not available in Freight Charges window at all though it can be displayed and edited by selecting Project Code to be visible and Active in Journal Entry Form Settings Table Format. As this is a limitation in SAP B1 please feedback to Development for improvement.
It is important to allocate Project Code to Freight charges in AP Invoice as every Purchase expense of Inventory or Non Inventory is assigned a Project Code for recognition in Profit and Loss Statement.
Kedalene Chong

Hello,
Your requirement to add project code on Freight Charges form is valid. This is well known issue and we have it on the waiting list; however, I cannot specify in which release this will be fixed.
Is there any other specific requirement on Cost Accounting you would like to solve?
Thanks.

How to add Freight Charges while creating PO

At the time of creation of Purchase Order, the custom duty and the freight
charges are not known.(Sometimes we know the freight charge)
But when the supplier submit the invoice both these
Custom duty and the freight charges are included, Now how do I go about
matching the invoice. Do I need to go and modify the PO for the difference
before I do the matching of PO with the invoice.
Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi,
I think you need to enable a DFF at PO header to provide the fright charges, this could be the one solution for your requirement.

Kevin.
