Freight contract

We capture Freight as a pricing condition in PO where we can specify the transporter also separately along with the supplier of goods.
My client have contracts with the transport company to bring goods from the vendors and ports.
Though We are able to capture the freight cost by specifying the transporter in the PO, the issue is client want to have the freight contract mainatined in the system. And system should updates the freight contracts as it do in the case of material contracts when the Po is made.
I made a freight contract by using item category D.
I specified this transport vendor no in the condition type. I did MIGO and MIRO, but system didnot updated this freight contract.
Is there any link that we can establish between PO freight and the freight contract?
There are so many contracts with transport companies that the client want to track them in system.

hi,
workaround
prerequisite:
1)create Frieght as a service through AC03 t-code
Scenario :
u can do it by creating a service order by item category as D (blancket PO)and lumpsome qty and value.
Now whenever u recieve goods u have to goto ML81N and create a service entry sheet.that will be updated in ur PO.
Or else
explore the transportation module in SAP

Reflecting Freight Charges in Material MAP

Hi,
I have a requirement to reflect freight charges in material MAP. This can be done when the charges are reflected in the PO price. However, this is the client's situation:
1. A contract has been established for freight services
2. Material is purchased via normal PO (freight charges not included)
3. A release order is created against the freight contract for freight services (potentially different vendor frm material supplier)
The question is, how can we reflect the cost incurred for freight services into the material MAP?

Hi
What I understand by your post is that you have two seperate POs for material vendor and freight vendor .In thsi case freight charges will not hit your inventory account ,but will hit a expense account (P&L account).Inorder to hit the freight charges to inventory account ,you need to create a new condition type as Delivery charges.Include the delivery charges in the material vendor PO .Now enter your freight amount against the freight condition type .Also mention the freight vendor code by clicking on the blue icon.This will ensure that the freight amount will be inventorised ,and will be included in MAP of the vendor ,Also you can perform MIRO seperately for material vendor and freight vendor

PO price condition tied to a contract

Hi,
I have a scenario wherein I have to put in a PO price condition like freight against a different vendor which is not an issue. However, the freight charges are actually covered by a contract and I would like to have the capability to link the PO freight condition against the said freight contract. This is to allow me to monitor contract spend and do other contract management/reporting activities. Has anyone have any ides on how this can be done? Am on version 4.6C. Thanks...

Hi Ramesh!
The currency rate should be used when converting the PB00 value from EUR currency to the local currency in tab Conditions at position level (the PO has as currency RON and the price condition PB00 has as currency EUR). The system will use this value (the converted value) also in GR as in IR.
Thanks.

Consignee & Consigner

Hi,
What it means by Consignee and Consigner..
Regards
sankar

Dear sankar
The definition of CONSIGNEE is [The person or firm named in a freight contract to whom goods have been shipped]
Having said this, the person who receives the consignment goods is consignee. For the warehouse agent, the end customer is consignee. Hope the concept is clear to you.

"No Instance of Purchase Order object: External Reference.
Any idea why this is coming.
Thanks
Bob

Hi Harish,
Thanks for the response
I am ticketing a nomination that references material purchase contracts and freight contract.
In the nomination i entered the plant given in Contract as Origin Plant. Is it OK.
The message i am getting during actualization is "No instance of objecy type Purchase Order Created:External Reference". There is a description "Purchase into in-transit/Contract".
Is it checking the intransit plant assigned in transport system, during actualization.
I tried ME21N with reference to contract. It is working fine.
I am not using SRM
Thanks

Freight error for Sub Contracting PO

Dear All
I am adding freight conditions in Sub Contracting PO. I want to add that freight value to inventory. So in Schema i have maintained account key as blank for that freight condition type. but while doing GR system is asking GL for FRN key. Why it is asking like this?
What are the setting i have to maintain for above requirement.
Kindly kind me.
Shobana

Hi,
Even if you maintain account key, frieght value will add to the inventory account. You need to maintain GL for FRN, since it is automatic posting.
NOTE: FRN is for delivery costs particularly for subcontract
Definition:
External service, delivery costs (FRN)
This transaction is used for delivery costs (incidental costs of procurement) in connection with subcontract orders.
If the account assigned here is defined as a cost element, you must specify a preliminary account assignment for the account in the table of automatic account assignment specification (Customizing for Controlling) in order to be able to post goods receipts against subcontract orders. In the standard system, cost center SC-1 is defined for this purpose.

Freight Condition on Contract is copied to Release PO Header

Hello,
We have a contract for raw materail with freight condition (value) attached to the line item not the header.    When release purchase order is created the freight condition is copied over to the HEADER not the line item and Is distributing the freight cost to all line items.    We expect the total value of the freight condition to be applied to the Po line item.    Can anyone explain why this happens and how to fix?
Best regards,
Diane

Hi Diane,
how did you set up the freight condition in your customizing? Is it a group condition? Please test the issue when it is NOT a group condition. The settings in the customizing should be for a fixed amount condition:
Cond. class   A Discount or surchar
Calculat.type B Fixed amount
Cond.category B Delivery costs
X item condition
or for a percentage condition:
Cond. class   A Discount or surcharge
Calculat.type A Percentage
Cond.category B Delivery costs
X item condition

Freight Charges in Rate Contracts WK

Hi All,
I have confgured a pricing procedure and it gets determined when i am creating rate contract. The condition type for freight charges gets determined in item condition but while calculating net price it is not being used. Can anybody please help.

Dear,
Whenever we define a condition type in M/06 and Tick Accruals flag in control data 2 then by default it is statistical ( does not depend whether you select statistical flag in M/08)
Just go to M/06 for your condition type press f1 (help ) on Accruals you will get the idea
It says
Condition is Relevant for Accrual (e.g. Freight)
Indicates that the system posts the amounts resulting from this condition to financial accounting as accruals.
Use
If you mark this indicator, the condition appears in the document as a statistical condition. "

Rate contract for the freight payment

Hi,
I have a scenario. The freight vendor is different than the PO vendor. The vendor is specified for the freight condition in the PO. the rate contract is created for the freight vendor in the system. How do I make the Invoice,
I have the service contract also as well as the vendor in the PO also. In case I do the payment against the service rate contract the price will not get loaded to the material if I am not wrong. Client wants to load the price on the material while the payment is against service entry sheet.
Please help

Hi Neesha,
The problem is not the posting. The problem is that the rate contract is different and the general PO is diffrent.
I will explain:
material A is to be transported from dock to factory, I raise the PO to vendor V1. The vendor V2 is the transported and I pay the freight to that vendor. There is a fix rate contract against this vendor V2. Now when I create the PO I give the V2 as the freight vendor. I do the GR against the service PO that I released to the freight vendor so that he will transfer the goods from the dock to the go-down. Now tell me I need to book invoice against the PO for V1 or the service entry sheet? invoice against the PO V1 will load the freight to the material while the invoice against the service entry sheet will go to the separate account. In case I do the invoice against the PO I loose the control of the rate contract!

Using SRM for carrier and freight forwarder contract management

Hi,
Does it make sense to use SRM to manage contracts from carriers and freight forwarder? Has anybody done that? The documentation I read makes me think SRM is oriented towards manufacturers.
Do you recommend any other solution for this situation?
Any comments are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Prakash,
SRM does provide the facility of contract management with the help of Purchase Contracts and Global Outline Agreements but it is used as part of the sourcing for materials and services. The materials or services have contracts against some given target value against which PO is released. The contract is based on a material number ( eithe material or a service) which will be used as a source of supply during the creation of the Shopping Cart. It might not really fit in the scenario of carrier and freight forwarders but still can be customized for this kind of use.
The contract management functionalities in the R/3 space can also be looked on for this purpose.

Contract with different plant specific freight conditions

Contract with Vendor ABC has 5 line items
Line item 1 & 2 for plant 123
Line item 3 is for plant 345
Line item 1,2,4 & 5 for plant 567
For plant 123, the Carrier is ASDF Trucking Co and the charges are $500 per trip.
For plant 345, no freight
For plant 567, the carrier is LKJH Trucking Co and the charges are $700 per trip.
When we create a PO with reference to the above contract for plant 123 for Line item 1 alone, the freight should be $500 per trip.
When we create a PO with reference to the above contract for plant 123 for Line item 2 alone, the freight should be $500 per trip.
When we create a PO with reference to the above contract for plant 123 for Line items 1& 2 the freight should be $500 per trip.
When we create a PO with reference to the above contract for plant 567 for Line items 1& 2 the freight should be $700 per trip.
How to create such a contract? Do i need to do some config to freight condtion types (pricing procedure)?

Hi
You can create this with std configuration itself.
While creating the Contract, please don't give Plant at the item overview.Just enter the line items and Quantities.
<b>You can maintian the plant specific condition for each line items.</b>
1.When maintaining the centrally agreed contract, choose Edit -> Plant conditions -> Overview.
2.On the overview screen that then appears, enter the desired plant and choose Plant prices.
3.An item overview screen appears, starting from which you can maintain conditions.
4.Choose Item -> Conditions to access the condition maintenance screen.
Return to the overview and repeat the process for all plants for which you wish to store plant-specific conditions.Save your input.

Freight to get from Info record in Standard Cost Estimate

Hello
I want the cost estimate to pick up the freight value/% from the condition type from the purchase info record. Iu2019ve created a costing variant which has the valuation variant set to u201CPrice from purchasing info recordu201D and the strategy sequence as u201Cnet quotation priceu201D. Also I have specified a condition type for delivery in delivery costs in the valuation variant however when I create the cost estimate the price from the purchase info record is picked up but not the delivery cost from the condition type of the info record. Is there something in configuration that needs to be set for this? Any Ideas?
Cheers

Hi Rajesh
The costing sheet will allow me to specify a fixed % for freight however i want to specify a different rate based on the vendor. Is there no way of picking the details from a info record or a contract?
Thanks
