Foreign Trade for Freight Forwarding Agents within USA

My client uses foreign trade to export materials from US to outside countries.
I've done all necessary configurations by going through the SAP documentation on Foreign Trade.   It works perfect with key combination of Sales Organization + Bill-to party (where Bill-to party's country is outside USA.
But it does NOT work when we create a condition table with key combination of Sales Organization + Ship-to Party (where ship-to party country is USA).
Material Master (Export Foreign Trade) has already been setup with appropriate commodity codes.
We send customs invoice (boarder broker document) to Freight Forwarding agent (Ship-to Party) whose address is within USA.   And they then take responsibility to export the material to outside USA.
Problem-1: During Delivery creation, the system automatically copies the FT information from MM when the Ship-to Party's country code is outside USA. But NOT for Ship-to Party's country code within USA.
Problem-2: Customs condition table on key combination Sales Organization + Ship-to does NOT work during creation of billing document (VF01 or VF04).   We need this custom so the custom invoice to print automatically using the custom output type.
Need your help.   Please respond ASAP. Points will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Nevill.

Expt/Imp Proce & Buss.Transaction Type for Foreign Trade for Puchase order

Hello All,
I need to get the EIPO-EXPRF(Export/Import Procedure for Foreign Trade) and EIPO-EXART(Business Transaction Type for Foreign Trade) for Purchase Order. Is there any function module available for this.
To get the same information (EIPO-EXPRF and EIPO-EXART) for Invoice there is an FM EXPIMP_BUS_TRANS_CUST_PROC_DET.
But I need to get the same information for Purchase orders.
Thank you!
Best Regards,
Sasidhar Reddy Matli.

Hi Jürgen,
Thanks for you reply.
You are right that VI99 are for reporting returns, but my problem is that MEIS in ECC 6.0 now shows the items as a full value
for reporting, if i do this in 4,7 they are not seleted for reporting, and i my view they should not be seleted in MEIS but they are.
what is you opinion.
I just check the movement type in Customizing and the "type of posting" are set to "2" the setting are the same in both 4,7 & 6,0

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..

Shipment Cost for different Forwarding agents in one Shipment Document

Hi.
I have an requirement, can we create one shipment type, which is based on multiple Forwading Agents,
i.e suppose if we have a Route with priliminary & subsequent legs having forwrding agents different at each stage.cost has to be calculated according to the forwarding agents with in the document according to the ROUTE .plz suggest..
Regards.
Sujith.

Hi Sujith,
This situation may arriase anytime.
it is possible to create one shipment cost document for more than 2 forwarding agents.
Standard SAP gives all the option in such scenario.
No Z developments required for achieving seperate costing for individual forwarder.

Partner Function for Freight Forwarder

Dear Guru's ,
I need to assign the Freight Vendor to the Freight Condition type in PO ( Pricing Procedure ) for all line items at once .
I have created the Pricing procedure with Gross Price , Freight charges , Custom duty and other charges . i have to raise the invoice for Gross price (Net price ) to Material Vendor and Freight charges , Custom duty , other charges to separate Freight vendor .
I am fetching the Condition type through condition record based on material / Purchase Organisation combination . I have to assign the same freight vendor to Freight charges , Custom duty , other charges for all the materials (all the line items) - Its not allowing to change the vendor in details of condition type at header level.
I tried with the Partner Function - Freight Forwarder but its not reflecting to the Freight condition type . Guide me to achieve this scenario .
regards
Anand

Hi, Partner function will not help in case of Imports, Maintain Access sequence LF01 for all the condition you want separate vendor through M/06,Then in MEK1 maintain the combination of Condition, Vendor, w.r.t Purch. organization, then try.

Hide foreign trade view in material master

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me how may one hide the foreign trade Views (both export & import) within the material master Data?
Usually the material views for selection are managed Through the material type customization; however I cannot Find these views within the optional views for the material Types.
I also searched within the foreign trade customization and could not found where it can be managed.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Regards
Ronny

Hi,
To restrict the views you have to follow the above explained process. If you want make specific field in material master , you can use following process
1.Just click the tab ,(Which is u want to be Required entry or Hide )and get the field name
2.Go to T.Code: OMSR and enter that field name and get Selection Group
3.1. Use t.Code: OMS2 and click your material type and in next screen check Field reference ( you have assigned for material type){{ ( example :;For ROH material type the Field reference is ROH)
3.2. use T.code:OMS9,, Double Click your Field Reference and select field selection Group & select round box of Required Entry or hide as u required and save.
NOTE
If you want go for new material type creation, you can design your material views and all steps following with t.codes are
OMSL,OMS3,OMS9,OMS2,OMT3B,OMT3R,OMT3E,OMSA,OMSF,OME4,OMSR,MMNR

The best forwarding agent determination during shipment processing.

Hello,
Standard SAP allow freight cost estimate during shipment processing for particular forwarding agent - "Freight cost estimate" button.
Is it possible in standard to automatic determination of the cheaper forwarding agent based on freight cost estimation?
Andrzej

Dear Andrzej,
Through "Freight cost estimate" you can find out which farwarding agent is cheaper than other based on that you can deside which FA is feasable.
I don't think system will determine automatically the cheapest FA in the shipping documents.
I hope this will help you,

Forwarding agent should not hold empty value

Hi all,
In Vt02n transaction while doing shipment completion i need to check if the forwarding agent field is empty or not .
If it is so i need to raise a error message. After that the forwarding agent field should be opened for input.
In the include ZXV56U16 (in the exit EXIT_SAPLV56F_011) i wrote a logic for this field check and raised a error message.
When i tested it the error message was dipalyed but the field is not opeing for inout again.
Can anyone pls help me on resolving this issue.

Instead of writing abap code in user exit, you can create an activity profile for the shipment type and status where the validation is required.
SPRO-Logistics Execution-Transportation-Shipments-Define and Assign Activity Profiles
In the profile you choose to display a popup window and mark the forwarding agent (VTTK-TDLNR) as mandatory field. As a result, when updating the status in the shipment document the system will ask for a forwarding agent.
Hope this helps

Turn off foreign trade in SD billing documents

Is there a way to turn off foreign trade for the SD billing documents.

Hello,
I believe there is a way to turn off foreign trade based on item category.
SPRO --> Sales and Distribution --> Basic Functions --> foreign trade. I believe in this you have some setting to deactiate foreign trade based on item category.
Prase

Foreign trade data is incomplete for the line item eg 70!

Dear Sapients,
I have encountered an issue related to invoice while releasing it to accouting.
The invoice is done for several line items but the problem is faced for one line item only, could any one suggest the possible solution please.
Regards.
Kodali

hi
Read the following SAP note. This can also be the case.
Note 354222 - Foreign trade data incomplete for domestic business
Symptom
A billing document cannot be transferred into accounting because the foreign trade data is incomplete.
However, the underlying business process is a domestic business!
Additional key words
VF01, VF02, EIPO, EIKP, foreign trade, incompleteness, domestic, delivery, billing document, EXNUM, EXPKZ,export indicator, export number
Cause and prerequisites
In the respective delivery or in the billing document, for domestic business you by mistake go to the foreign trade data into a field. Since the incompletion log requires at least one entry for foreign trade, you must fill one field in order to be able to leave the foreign trade data again without canceling document processing.
Here, an export indicator and an export number is assigned which cause the incompleteness of the whole document due to missing export data.
Solution
A solution in the standard system is currently not planned since because of various customer requests the foreign trade data in the delivery should be accessed and maintained for domestic business too. An example is the inbound delivery in a bonded warehouse where the forwarding agent should get information already in advance.
To avoid incorrect billing documents, proceed as follows:
Copy data transport routine 001 to a routine 601 and enhance the new routine according to the attached correction instruction (RV60C601). Store this new data transport routine in Customizing for the copying control for billing documents for the processes you use, for example
F2 - LF, item category TAN. (delivery-related)
If you already use an own data transport routine, in this data transport routine include the attached source code.
You must cancel existing billing documents and then create them again.
If you do not want to cancel existing documents, implement the attached correction (program RV60AFZZ) and release the documents either individually (VF02, default transaction) or via the list of blocked billing documents (VFX3).
After you completed the correction, you should cancel this solution (RV60AFZZ) again.
Also refer to the attached Note 170183.

Exit for Foreign trade data(import tab) on ME22N

In Purchase Order transaction ME22, the requirement is to copy the contents of office of entry field (EIKP-ZOLLA) to EKKO-INCO2 field.(whenever there is any change in office of entry field).The office of entry field is present in import tab of purchase order screen. Whenever any changes happen in it, the standard PO customer exits like EXIT_SAPMM06E_007 , EXIT_SAPMM06E_006 does not get triggered Nor the BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. However, foreign trade exit EXIT_SAPLV50E_005 gets triggered. In this exit only completeness of data is checked and EKKO values cannot be modified from this exit.
Is there any alternative exit or BADI which gets triggered on the making changes in any data in the import (foreign trade data) tab in PO? Is there any mechanism to change EKKO-INC02 (screen value) from any of the other exits (i.e. exits triggered on data entry in foreign trade tab)?

Freight charges based on rates per forwarding agents

Dear all,
i want to calculate freight chares based on fields plant and forwarding agent rates per EA.
I have a partner function CR in customer master. In procing table field SPDNR for forwarding agent is not allowed.
I tried to put LIFNR field but still not working... Kindly suggest me solution asap.
Regards,
Sandip

I think you can either add new fields to KOMP or KOMK (item or header) and populate these fields in userexit_pricing_prepare_tkomp or userexit_pricing_prepare_tkomk
in both order & invoice programs and then use these fields in condition tables.
OR you can determine your conditions based on plant and define calculation routine to calculate condiiton value based on forwarding agent

Mandatory field Export/Import Procedure for Foreign Trade

Hello all!
Is there any possibilty to define the field Export/Import Procedure for Foreign Trade
within the infoset as a mandatory field?
Table T162 doesn't show me this field.
Kind regards,
Barbara

Hello,
in customizing under "Materials Management --> Purchasing --> Foreign Trade/Customs --> Control Foreign Trade Data in MM and SD Documents --> Incompleteness Schemas for Foreign Trade Data" you can create an incompletion procedure defininig the documents fields assigning a control type. Then in the subsequent customizing step "Foreign Trade Data in MM and SD Documents" you can assign the Incompleteness schema to each country code, choosing import or export.
Hope to be useful.
Best regards,
Andrea

Foreign Trade: Balance of payment report for Belgium RFIDITSR00

Hi,
I have done customizing settings for the balance of payment report of Belgium (report RFIDITSR00)
according to OSS note 928316.
When I want to create a file with file name "ITSR_BE_BOP2006" and extension CSV, I get following message:
Format tree ITSR_BE_BOP2006_XML does not exist for tree type ITSR
Message no. DMEE_ABA003
In table IDITSR_DMEE_V I have defined:
Reporting cat: S03CCR
Format tree: ITSR_BE_BOP2006_CSV
What else do I need to customize to get the file created?
Thank you for your advice.
Kind regards,
Linda

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.

Add a view to the IMG for Foreign trade declaration Belgium

Hi,
I need to make the customising settings for the new report "Foreign trade declartation for Belgium".
This is report RFIDITSR00.
In SAP note 928316 I see which steps I need to carry out.
However, the node "Belgium" is not shown in the Implementation Guide.
Can I add it via transaction SIMGH and S_IMG_EXTENSION?
Can you please advise?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

Hi,
Yes you can.
But do create it as a new Z IMG structure. The reason being that when a support pack or an upgrade is done, this will not be overwritten. However, if you do chose to create in an exisiting structural node, you will need to insert it back again after an support pack upgrade, from SPDD/SPAU.
Cheers.
