Freight cost per meter (load lenght)

Dear All,
I try to define shipping cost calculation by length(in meter) in a transportation project
I have managed a condition type (multi-dimentional) with calculation base 'C : Handling Units'
2 scales, one for the transportation zone destination and another one for the length of loading for this condtion type
1 condition record
The deliveries are packed (HUM), all the dimensions are managed in the material records.
There is no packaging in the shipment document, only in the delivery.
The shipment cost find the condtion record, but set the condition value to zero, because in the scale the condition base value is set to zero.
It seems that there is no conversion in meter for the entry.
Not sure to be really clear, but ask me if you want more explanation.
Need your help, I don't know any more where looking for
Thanks in advance

  • Freight Cost Per Kilometer

    Dear All,
    Plz give me some idea about how to calculate and determine freight cost per kilometer in shipping cost document.
    Thanks & Regards,
    PM

    You should be able to achieve this by making use of the route determination functionlity in LE (logistics execution).
    When you define a route and its different stages (if applicable) you can assign a predetermined distance that is measure in KM.
    In pricing determination you then use a condition type for freight that is distance dependant or simply with calculation type = quantity . You may create an access sequence that reads the distance from the route in the document to derive the rate per km for that route which you would have maintained in the condition records.

  • Freight costs per KG when PO order is in PC, how to solve?

    Hi,
    My client want to make use of a condition type in the purchase calculation sheet which covers the freight costs per KG. The case is that we also order per PC. How to solve this problem? Which condition type can I use for freight costs per kg?

  • Freight costs per PO

    Hi gurus,
    is it possible to automatically determine freight costs on header level of a PO?
    I can enter freight costs on item level (condition types FRA1, FRB1 etc.) and create condition records for them in info records.
    But on header level, none of the condition types mentioned above is allowed. Am I missing something or do I have to create new condition types (similar to ZB00) to be able to enter freight costs on header level (e.g. 100$ per PO, regardless how many items it contains)?
    I would also like to create condition records for those freight costs for each vendor.
    Thank you
    Alicia

    Hi,
    You can mark the existing freight conditions as "Header condition" in M/06 and also active the "Group Condition" indicator to distribute it proportionately among the PO line items.
    Also you can assign the access sequence of Vendor (Standard is 0006) and maintain condition record in MEK1.
    All the above changes can be done in a new condition type also by copying the standard one if you don't want to hamper SAP standard settings.

  • Reducing the Freight cost on material value for undelivered material

    Hi Experts,
    Summary :  The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material. The freight transport is allowed an under tolearance of 0.5% on the material to be supplied. If the delivered material quantity breaches the 0.5% under tolerance then amount at 1.5 times the cost of material for the shortage is to be deducted from the transporter. A dummy GR will have to be prepared for the undelivered quantity for which we do not want the freight cost to be loaded. The details scenario is mentioned below :-
    We have to make a Purchase Order with material code say ABC for procured of some material. Suppose we make a Purchase Order for 100 nos. at a Unit Price of Say Rs. 10/- for Material Code ABC on say Vendor M/s XYZ. A freight condition is maintained in the Conditions Tab and suppose the Freight is Rs. 10 per unit of the material.
    While preparing the Goods Receipt through MIGO, in the Freight Tab we select say freight vendor say M/s PQR against the freight condition and post the goods receipt.
    While doing Invoice Processing in MIRO, when we enter the combination of Purchase Order and Planned Delivery Cost the system will populate the vendor codes of both the supplier of material and the transporter. On selecting the transporter the freight amount will populate against which the invoice of the tranporter can be processed.
    In the Vendor Master of M/s XYZ GR-Based Invoice Verification is activated.
    The vendor is allowed an under tolerance of 0.5% (i.e. the vendor should deliver at least 99.50 nos. of the Purchase Order). If the vendor delivers 99.50 or more then there will be no deduction in the freight charges.
    But suppose the vendor delivers only 99.4 nos. of the quantity. Then we will prepare the GRIR for 99.4 nos.only. But while processing the MIRO we need to deduct 1.5 times the value of the material from the freight amount for the shortshipped quantity, i.e.
    0.1     no (99.5 u2013 99.4) X Rs. 10/- * 1.5 = Rs. 1.5 are to be deducted from the final payment from the freight amount of the transporter.
    The material supplier will have to be paid in full 100 nos. of quantity and will raise an invoice for 100 nos. A dummy GRIR for the 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will have to be prepared for processing the invoice for the 100 nos. of the material supplier and a dummy issue for 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will be prepared to remove them from the system.
    Hence the freight cost for this 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will also go into the cost of the material and increase the MAP by that amount. Also the goods issue Cost will also have the effect of the freight cost.
    We do not want to load the freight cost for the undelivered material in the value of the material.
    Can any one please suggest a solution for the same.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    A PO Will be raised for full quantity of material say 100 nos.
    The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material.
    A freight vendor is maintained at the time of GR for material against the freight condition maintained in the Po.
    The freight vendor facilitates the delivery of the material from the vendor to the purchaser for which he is given an under tolerance limit of 0.5%. Any delivery below this tolerance limit, freight amount to the effect of 1.5 times the per unit rate of material x short fall below 0.5% tolerance will be deducted from the freight amount.
    A dummy grir will have to be prepared for the short delivered quantity for processing the invoice for the full quantity of the purchase order, as the vendor is going to raise the invoice for full purchase order quantity. The client does not want to load the freight cost of the undelivered quantity on the material value as it will wrongly show the MAP of the material. This shortshipped material will be issued to remove it from the system and the stock will remain for the delivered quantity only. The vendor is subject to gr based invoice verification.
    Please suggest a solution.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Loading freight cost to inventory at the time of GR

    Dear All
    When i am not using LE then i do have process where i will be having a condition type of freight at STO type , I shall do delivery(VL10D) against that PO number, PGI and at the time of GR at receiving plant that freight will get uploaded to material which is having price control " V ". Now as I am using LE my freight will be calculated at VI01(freight cost calculation) , there will not be any condition type of freight at PO level . Now I want that(VI01) freight to get uploaded on material .That means some how my VI01 document will be linked to PO and I guess this is possible by doing configuration at " Shipment Cost Item Categories " .Please provide me solution if this can be done or give me any other alternate . I am running late so please do help me.

    The issue is resoleved.
    We can load freight cost using LE on inventory in inbound shipment as well as in STO.
    Config steps are :
    1.  Settlement rel.  = A     relevant for settlement (delivery costs) in T_56
    2.  In pricing schema of PO : condition catagory shud be " delivery relevent "
    3. check "accurals" check box and "copy shipment cost" check  in condition type .
    4. Make condition type manual at PO level .Important to note the value of this condition type at the time of PO creation should be blank.
    5. After shipment cost calculation check the shipment status .it shud b " C ".
    6. At MIGO check ur accounting doc

  • Report on Shipment/Freight Costs

    Dear Forum,
    We are following the process whereby the Shipment/Freight costs are included in the POs as conditions. At the time of Goods Receipt, as per the standard procedure, the Shipment/Freight Costs are loaded on to the materal costs of the Inventories received. Now there is a requirement to monitor the Shipment/Freight Costs and a report is required to be generated which would give the material costs as well as the Shipment/Freight costs. How can we generate the same?
    Your help would be highly appreciated.

    You can use MB51(Amount in LC,101 mvmt type) for material cost.
    Find shipment / freight cost using FBL3N report for required g/l account.

  • Free goods but want to freight cost updation upon GR

    Hi,
    Scenario:
    I have a PO with 20 line items and header freight cost.
    There are few more items in PO which are ticked as free goods.
    There is a stock of those materials with certain MAP.
    Freight condition has been configured as vendor GR so that it gets loaded on materials upon GR.
    Requirement is that
    Upon GR of this PO,MAPshould get updated with the freight cost for those materials also which have been marked as free goods.
    How this can be achieved ?
    Regards,
    manOO

    Hi Rang,
    Thanks for the feedback.However service PO is out of scope as client do not want to go for servicees.
    I could not understand your suggestion
    <u>you give PO to frieght vendor for freight value & in remarks you mention reciving as FREE GOODS from vendor xxxxx & do GR load cost to material & pay to freight vendor. (this is not advisible, but one solution for your problem).</u>
    I have to receive one material via purchase order as a free item but I need to pay vendor for the freight charges that will be incurred to ship this item along with all the other items in the same PO.
    Can you please explain me further as what you mean to say in your post.
    I should be able to load these freight cost on all the materials in PO including the material with 'free' indiactor.
    In short upon GR MAP should affect with freight cost as there will not be value addition of the material since received as free.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks in advance

  • Manage Item Cost per Warehouse

    Previous posts have confirmed that it is not possible to change the Manage Item Cost per Warehouse option once any inventory transactions have been posted.  One entry posted in Feb 2010 (below) even offered a link to other "Irreversible Ticks" (although that link is now broken).  This limitation is required in order to preserve the relational integrity of the system, within its design architecture.
    Manage item cost per warehouse
    If a database has been in operation for several years with company-level costing, and business changes now force tracking costs by warehouse, I see no option other than creating a new database with the per-warehouse option, then loading items, inventory, GL, etc.  Unfortunately, all history (GL transactions, document history, change log, etc.) is no longer available in that database.
    Is anyone aware of SAP plans or tools to support any other alternatives to this kind of business change?
    Thanks, Dave

    Hi Dave,
    I am afraid creating a new database is your only option.
    For old data, you may still keep access for certain reports. All open items has to be imported to new db. It is a kind of manual archiving. Your database performance will gain a lot though.
    Thanks,

  • Inbound Logistics:  What are the best options to capture freight costs?

    We attempted to implement a freight payables solution which was built on Inbound Deliveries> Inbound Shipments> Inbound Shipment Cost Documents.  The PO line items were flagged with a conf.control key which made the above inbound documents relevant.
    Very long story short, we had to remove this functionality because of two major issues:
    1.     The Inbound Deliveries were created with incorrect quantities some of the time.  When the Inbound Deliveries were created with incorrect quantity those errors caused major problems (e.g., over accrual of freight cost to the tune of several millions of dollars!!!).
    2.     Also, when the Inbound Deliveries were created with incorrect quantity MRP went berserk (e.g., when the IB delivery has the wrong quantity that shows up in MD04 and the planners are left scratching their heads wondering why the supplier is shipping so much or so little).
    I wonu2019t get into the details of how the Inbound Deliveries were being created but suffice to say they were manually entered by the supplier without the benefit of an EDI transaction- it was more of a manual entry- hence the data accuracy problem.
    The point of this post is to gain feedback from other customers who have implemented an inbound freight payables solution with success & understand what processes were used to make your project successful.
    For example, if I had a u201Cwish listu201D Iu2019d request the following:
    1.     The IB delivery document type Iu2019d like to use should be non-MRP relevant.  This will eliminate the confusion that occurred when planners run MD04 and see all of the shipment notifications.  Also, if the MIGO_GR transaction is used to receive the POu2019s, they will see the quantities on the PO, not on the IB delivery.  This would be good for us from a business continuity stand point.  However, if the IB delivery is not MRP relevant, than your GR does not accrue the freight cost defined on the SCD which short circuits the entire point of having these documents.
    u2022     Q:  Have you had any success implementing an IB freight solution with minimum impact to planning / inventory / operations?
    2.     As mentioned above, the data accuracy of the IB delivery was problematic.  Because of this issue we have changed our thinking so that we would require a EDI ASN to be sent from our supplier to our SAP system.  Using EDI we feel that greater accuracy would be obtained since the quantities defined would map to what is being picked or at least aligned with what we would expect to be invoiced for.  The problem is we donu2019t know how EDI capable our suppliers are.
    u2022     Q:  Has anyone had success implementing this with your suppliers on a large scale?
    3.     Are there other inbound freight payment solutions that Iu2019m not thinking about u2013 custom or other that you have implemented & can share some of the specifics about?  Iu2019d enjoy hearing about them.  Since we are re-thinking what we implemented Iu2019m open to any suggestions. 
    Thanks so much for your time!
    Rich Wortmann

    Chandra,
    Thank you for your reply.  I'm aware of the freight condition approach you suggest & the ability to define the carrier in the freight condition.
    We explored this functionality in the past.  The problem/limitations we've experienced were as follows:
    1. Essentially you have to know your freight cost & the carrier by PO line item at the time the PO is created.  Both of these variables we typically cannot predict in our environment.
    2. We have a lot of situations where the PO is considered a u201Cblanketu201D where it will remain open for a month up to a year.  Knowing the entire freight cost for these PO's once they are created is impossible to predict so to support the freight conditions we would have to change our business process which would be a big effort for our organization.
    3. Our suppliers ship product based on multiple PO's / PO lines, again it is impossible to predict what the per unit freight cost would be at the time a PO is generated.
    These factors are what led us to the IB delivery solution which handles each one of these scenarios quite well provided you have good data when the IB delivery is created.
    Regarding your second post:  Thanks!  This information is helpful.
    Sincerely,
    Rich Wortmann

  • Service PO with Freight Cost

    Hi Experts,
    Please let me know the possible solution for the below scenario:
    We have created a Service PO (no service master data), service cost per qty is 5000 and freight cost is Rs. 500 (entered in the condition type).
    Ex. Sending a Roll for clean and coating to the service vendor.
    Once we received the serviced material we accept it in ML81M. Here the problem is only Service cost will come when service entry sheet accepted, could let me know how to arrive the freight cost also at service acceptance or any other method to do the same.
    YJ

    Hi,
    this is not possible,you have to create separate line item for same,
    check foolwoing SAP Note:
    Hi,
    Delivery cost not suppostr in service entree sheet
    SAP Note 381030 - Delivery costs in service
    Symptom
    When you reset the acceptance of services performed and when you reverse invoices for service orders, the delivery costs are not posted back 1:1.
    Other terms
    ML81N, reversal, freight, freight costs, delivery costs, service.
    Solution
    Delivery costs are generally not supported in external services management and in case of blanket purchase orders, item category D or B. Instead of representing delivery costs via conditions, in case of service documents, freight costs and other, SAP recommends to add in additional service lines.

  • 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
