Forwarding agent not determined

Hi i have an issue where the forwarding agent is not determined in the order automatically .
The forwrading agent is available in route of the order item . but still it is not copied ?
what could be the reason ?
regards,
ganesh

Are you referring about Forwarding agent is not determined in Sales Order(VA01) OR Shipment document ( VT01N)?
if its SO-
Forwarding agent will be determined in SO from the Customer Master. not from the Route.
where as in Shipment document-
Forwarding agent determined automatically, if you maintain the routine-7 in shipment doc type details in Customization. ( IMG-LE-Transportation-Shipments - Define shipment types)
hope it helps.

Task TS00007989 agent not determined still Mails are going to USERS

Hi Experts,
At one of our client task TS00007989 is activated for error handling for IDOC.
IDOC is created by report in background and system is not getting partner profile in WE20 for the customer hence post processing agent is also not found for task, hence it is raising an error and task TS00007989 gets trigger.
Here my problem is, specific user is getting so many mails. Now i want to find out why & how system is sending this mails to the USER other way is to deactivate the workflow from WE40.
I have checked the LOG from swi2_freq and SWI5.
below is the screen shot of users INBOX.
I would like to find out why & how system is sending this mails to the USER. I have checked from HR tables HRP1001 from there also i didn't found anything
Guys Please help me as i have already spent so many days on the same.

Hi Paresh
The Task TS00007989 has a default rule assigned 30000013
Go to SE37 , set a break point in Function EDI_ROLE_FOR_PROCESSING
Go to PFAC -> give rule number 30000013 and simulate -> Give the IDOC Number (anyone from your screen shot).
Debug and find out the Partner which is being picked up from your IDOC

Forwarding Agent on Sales Order Coming as Customer ( I want it for Vendor )

Hello Folks,
When i select a forwarding agent on the sales order header , i am getting an error "Customer not created " and opens up an F4 help for customers . The thing is my forwarding agents have been created as vendors and I want my vendors to show up in F4 help.
FYI , in partner determination ,for the partner function FA(forwarding agent ) i have set up the partner type as LI (Vendor ). Even then it doesnt work.
Please advice what else I should do.
Thanks,

Hi,
At what level this is happening in sales order either @ Header or Item level.
- Re-check in Tx:VOPA - assigned partner determination procedure.
If you are using ECC 6.0
then use the partner fuction : CR - Forwarding agent - partner type (LI - as mentioned)
where as in Sales order, Partner fucntion you have to use it "SP-Forwarding agent" ( note: SP is not sold to party in SO , for Sold to Party its AG)
Check both @ Header & item level.

Agent is determining properly but workitem is not coming in sap inbox.

Hello Expert,
In my workflow agent is determining properly. i have seen from workflow log.
but the workitem(approval mail) is not coming into agents workflow inbox.the problem is happening in production.
same workflow is running successfully in development. means workitem is coming in agents workflow inbox.
i don't have authorization in T CODES SCOT SO16 so I can check and suggest something.
I want to ask that is it any config issue or something else.
is there any other way so i can cross check.
please help.
thanks raj.

Hi Rajib,
Check in the workflow log in production for the user decision task what error message it displays. If it is stuck due to missing agents, then there is a possibility that you missed to transport the agent assignment for the workflow task. Check if the same was included in the customizing task that is transported.
Also check if the buffer refresh was done after the changes were imported in the production system using transaction SWU_OBUF.

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

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,

Adding Forwarding Agent to Partner details in a Sales Order.

Hi Experts,
Below is the detailed scenario :
We have inbound orders been created by Idocs Orders04 using the Idoc_Input_orders function module.
the requirement is that if the partner forwarding agent is not been populated in Idoc then we need to add the same in the SO Partner details from Z table based on the sold to party in the idoc.
Can anyone please help how I can proceed with the requirement. I have created a Z table and maintain the entries. I am not understanding where i should be doing the Coding for the same.
Thanks and Regards,
Nimisha.

Hello,
inside the VA01-transaction there are the userexits EXIT_SAPLV09A_001 to EXIT_SAPLV09A_004 influencing the partner determination. Think most probably you could use the EXIT_SAPLV09A_004
(Enhancement is V09A0004).
You could switch on that one and look, which partners are in the order at that point of time.

How Fowrarding Agent get Determined in Delivery?

Hi Gurus,
I have a delivery which forwarding agent is different from Forwarding agent showed in Sales Order. For example, in Sales Order partner function I have Mr. A as forwarding agent. But, I got forwarding agent as Mr B when I create delivery.
I want to know how SAP determine the forwarding agent in delivery. This delivery has no route therefore it's not determined from route too. Is there any configuration on this? or Is there any user exit that I could check for this?
Please suggest.
Thanks
Pavin

hello, friend.
the priority for service agent determination, per SAP documentation, as follow -
The forwarding agent in the shipment header can therefore be specified in a number of ways (options listed in descending order with regard to priority):
1. You can enter it manually.
2. You can enter it indirectly by specifying a route.
3. You can copy it from the deliveries (if it is unique and if the corresponding Customizing settings have been made).
4. You can adopt it from the route that has been copied from the deliveries into the shipment header.
for the uniqueness as mentioned above, please look into the Basic Functions under Transportation in IMG.

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

You have not indicated whether you have assigned the Account Group 0005 to your Partner Functions.

How to create Forwarding Agent?

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody throw some light regarding Forwarding Agent,Personnel and contact persons.....
1.How to create them(In detail)?
2.How to mention them in CMR of sold to party?
3.Who are they?
Thanks in advance.
Points will be awarded for sure.
Venkat

Contact persons are natural persons whom you must contact at the customers for business processing (for example, purchasers) It is not necessary for you to be a customer employee, you could, for example, be an independent advisor.
You can create contact persons directly in the customer master record. You are then assigned to this customer. The contact persons can however be assigned to other customers.
Forwarding agent
A forwarding agent is an example of a business partner on the credit side, who is included in a sales process. If you commission a particular forwarding agent for deliveries to a specific customer, you can define the forwarding agent in the customer master record as the partner.
Possible partner functions on the credit side in the sales process are for example,interpreters, auditors.
Personnel
Employee responsible
Sales personnel
You can enter an employee from your firm as the person responsible:
In the customer master: if the employee is normally responsible for processing transactions with this customer
In the sales document: if the employee is responsible for processing the business transaction.

Hi,
Check this userexit in partner determination,you can write your required logic in this exit.
EXIT_SAPLV09A_004
Use this user exit to integrate your own check in a program, that runs before the partner is saved in the document.

Fixing forwarding Agent based on Sales Order volume

Hi Experts,
Based on the Sales Order total volume, how can I fix a forwarding agent for that. Eg. If the Sales Order volume (Pls note this is not order Quantity) is more than 500 lbs that has to be despatch only through forwarding agent DHL.
Waiting for the help to solving this issue.
Christine.

You will need to add code to do you determination via a user exit or badi.
Take a look at mv45afzz or some of the include exits around it in sapmv45a.
You will need to supplement delivered logic with your own in order to do what you want to do.

Forwarding agent in ME21N

How to include the forwarding agent in the PO header item .?The Pop up is not showing the forwarding agent.But it is available in the vendor master .
Thanks

hi,
you need to create the partner function "Forwarding Agent" and attach it to the vendor schema and this schema should be attached to the vendor account group. by doing this, whenever you create PO for the main vendor the partner function Forwarding agent will be picked up in the PO.
the configuration can be done in partner determination in SPRO-- material management-- purchasing-- partner determination.
hope this helps
