How to define routes for freight cost calculation

Hi,
in our company we plan to use LE-TRA Transport with Freight costs calculation. To use Transport it is a must to maintain routes in all sales orders/deliveries. Currently we do not use it and now we have the challenge to define routes and later due to freight costs calculation Stages. There are different solutions for routes. In some other companys we have only routes dependent on the Transit duration, but that's all. They don't use stages and they don't use freight cost calculation in SAP.
As I know routes should describe geographical locations (The way location A till location B). Based on the route we have a defined stage with a distance, shipping type.... That would mean for a company: They need to analyse all delivery channels with different forwarding agents and so on. Is that possible when the forwarding agent is responsible for scheduling? That means for a company with customer around the world thousands of routes?
Alternatively it is possible to create stages in the transport documents. Is that more recommendable? It would be nice, when someone could post his experience with that topic.
Thank you,
Raphael

Hi Luis,
thank you for the response. My problem is not the technical view. I know how to create the routes and what kind of information I need. The problem is to unterstand how this concept can operate in practise in a company with many different customer.
The following site describes the concept of routes in SAP:
http://blog.tkreddy.com/2010/09/17/understanding-the-concept-of-routes-le-shp-in-sap-ecc-6-0/
A company with many delivery plants and customer around the world needs to forward all delivery channels they have to us, A route describes an area and includes stages with location A and B. The stages are assigned to a forwarding agend. Based on that information I can start a freigt cost calculation. The structure of stages and routes also depends on the situation how many different forwarding agents are involved in a delivery process.
In my opinion it is really a big effort to find a reliable solution for the amount of routes and stages. I am thinking about to use the solution to create the stage manually in the transport document and to use the routes to describe the transit time.

Freight Cost based on postal code from alternative partner (occasional)

Hi SAP experts!
In standard SAP, the freight cost is calculated based on the postal code from WE partner (goods receiver).
But my client have a situation where he uses an one-time customer as a goods receiver. In this cases the freight cost is being calculated wrong, because the SAP uses the tariff zone from goods receiver (WE partner).
Does anybody know if there is a standard partner function to be used in order to consider the zipcode from the one-time customer instead ?
Does anybody knows if there is a standard solution for this issue in SAP?
Exemple:
sold to party - client X - postal code NNN
ship to party - client X - postal code NNN
goods receiver - client Y - postal code AAA
Then the freight must be calculated based on the postal code AAA.
Thanks!

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.
Best Regards

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

Freight Cost while Goods Receipt in STO

Dear Experts,
In SAP standard STO process, freight cost calculated while Material issued against STO ( 351/641 movement).
Is there any way possible to calculate the freight at the time of goods receipt instead of at the time of Goods Issue..
Thanks in Advance.

Why do you want it at the time of GR?
Anyways, you can not see or change the freight amount in MIGO. And I don't think there is any other way to post the freight amount other than 351/641 goods issue.

Can freight be calculated at Sales order header

Hi
We have this business scenario where Freight is calculated at order header.
But we were checking the API for that
WSH_INTERFACE_GRP.Create_Update_Freight_Costs
This is done at Delivery or Delivery detail level.
So CANT we have freight costs at order header level???
Basically i have say 3 labels created for an order i need to generate freight for these 3 labels. Please not 3 labels DOES NOT correspond to 3 lines.
So can i create Freight lines for these 3 labels for that order header Id.
And also another question is for RETURN orders we wont have any deliveries then how are freight cost calculated
Regards
Gibin

Right Now I am populating if the order header is successful as below to capture freight info at header level.
PROCEDURE xx_freight_charges(l_amount IN NUMBER,
l_header_id IN NUMBER,
l_created_by IN NUMBER)

v_seq NUMBER;

insert into oe_price_adjustments

list_header_id,list_line_id, list_line_type_code, change_reason_code,change_reason_text, updated_flag,applied_flag,
operand, arithmetic_operator, charge_type_code,modifier_level_code, list_line_no)
values
(v_seq,SYSDATE,l_created_by,l_created_by,SYSDATE,l_header_id,'N',
v_list_header_id_h,v_list_line_id_h,'FREIGHT_CHARGE','MANUAL','Manually applied adjustment','Y','Y',

COMMIT;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
Xx_Xmldb_Pkg.xx_insert_errors ('Freight Charges', v_program,

I think you can do it using api, also but I was not successful.

Add freight cost in a cross company code scenario using a costing sheet

Dear Forum,
I will like to add freight cost to a material using a costing sheet. The freight percentage is very easy to add and works fine when the cost is added in the company code costing. My problems start when I want to add the freight in the cross-company code costing. I want to setup a cross-company code costing where the freight cost is added to the material in the buying company code and not on the selling company code. The cross-company code costing is setup using special procurement costing keys.
In below costing (CK11N) the procurement costing key is not used.
From the itemization it is shown that purchase info.record 5300067643 is read and the price of 12,97 is determined. There is added 10% in freight coming from the costing sheet.
The freight is shown in the cost component structure as well.
The special procurement type is now changed from ‘20’ to ‘AT´ on the MRP2 screen in the material master. The procurement is now pointing to an internal plant called ‘DCN’.
The costing of material 105050 is now repeated. I get the expected result from changing the procurement key, as I can now see the material is sourced from plant ‘DCN’. DCN is sourcing the material from BJ07, but that is not relevant for the example.
If I now look at the itemization again on the costing in BGA1 I now see that the price is not coming from the info.record. It is the costing in DCN that is used.
I will still like to add the freight cost in BGA1.
How do I add freight cost in BGA1 when I at the same time want to have the costing to be taken from plant DCN?
Please let me know if you need additional information on the customizing setup of the system.
Best regards,
Kim Hjorth Poulsen

Hi Srinu,
Thank You for a prompt feedback.
I have tried to follow Your advise. The special procurement costing key is customized like below.
I have updated the special procurement costing key on the costing 1 view of the material master. When costing the material it is using the special procurement key. This can be seen from the qty. structure tab in CK11N.
It is also costing cross company as intended.
The itemization looks like below.
and the cost component structure looks like below.
Unfortunately the freight is not added in the costing in BGA1.
I noticed that when the costing is made without special procurement key the costing sheet used in the costing is for material components. If the costing is made with the special procurement keys the costing sheet used is for finished and semi-finished materials. The customizing in both of the costing sheets are the same, but only when costing is without the special procurement keys the freight is added.
So unfornutely Your suggestion did not solve the problem.
Best regards,
Kim

Re: Freight Cost during MIRO

Dear All,
Need help...I configured the following steps in order to capture freight cost during MIRO. but during MIRO,
the GL account captured/defaulted to freight cost is same as the expense accnt instead of the freight cost account..
eg. Expense -1111
      Freight   -2222
      Vendor - 3333
Created 1 PO and maintain the ff:
PO is 1 line item 1pc=1000
ZFR1 - Condition type for Freight cost = 200
At the time of MIRO ( we dont have GR processing),the screen display 2 line item for the expense and freight cost but the GL account defaulted in the freight cost is same as expense account instead of the freight account. then if do a simulate, the following are the entry (which is wrong)
Vendor   1111                 1200
Expense   3333              1000(-)
Expense   3333                200(-)          * supposed to charge to my freight accnt 2222
below step i configured.
created new condition type ZFR1 (copying std FR1B)
put B- Delivery cost and tick 'Accrual' in the settings
maintain transaction event ZFR and posting key
assigned GL acccount to ZFR
include the condition type ZFR1 in the calculation schema, put ZFR in the field 'accrual'
Appreciate all your advise. many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Check your OBYC settings whether you have assigned the correct GL for the new trans Key.

Shipment Cost Calculation

Dear All,
I know that tariffzone plays a role in determining the price for the freight/Service Agent condition in case of outbound shipment cost calculation
I have the following query in Shipment Pricing.
Can anyone please explain whats the role of the 2 postal code columns in the tariff zone assignment?
Also how & where I have to maintain the data for determining the tariff zone which I have assigned to the above combination.
Please help.
Regards,

HI Dave,
Thanks for the response.
Please note that I have maintained postal codes in my Shipping point also in my customer master.
For the combination of TP Point, Service agent, Shipping type & Country I have made the following assignment.
I have given my shipping point Postal code in both the Postal code columns of Tarff zone assignment (say Tariff) & my customer master Postal code in both the Postal code columns of Tariff zone assignment (say Tariff1).
Now I have maintained the condition records in TK11 for the combination of Depart. Tariff zone/Destn.Tariff zone/Service Agent i.e. Tariff/Tariff1/Service Agent
But my condition record value is not getting determined & when I simulate my shipment cost I am getting the following error message.
Shipment costs not yet calculated
Shipment costs item 000001 w/ ref. to doc. $0001 item 0001
Message no. VY104
Goods types directory could not be determined

Please help to reolve this issue.

Idoc invoic02 freight costs

we're giong to use INVOIC02 as inbound idoc for the logistics invoice verification.
Does anybody have a clue, how freight costs can be processed? The supplier provides us in a flat input file with separated costs for freight, but my workmates say these costs can't /won't fit in the idoc structure definition.
Any hint is appreciated.

Hi Matt Potts,
During creation of Purchase Order, you have to carry out following steps;
(a) Select header condition or relevant PO Line items
(b) Add your Freight condition and add your values in Ammount (based on value or in %)
(c) Select above Freight condition and click condition details (magnifier)
(d) Add your Vendor code in Vendor Field (KOMV-LIFNR)

Freight costs to be payable to third party in a PO

Good morning,
In order for freight costs to be payable to third party in a PO (Incoterms of Ex-Works) I believe you need maintain a separate vendor for this condition type, at the time of creation of the PO.
How do you link a condition type to a vendor?
Many thanks,
Matt

Shpmnt Freight Cost varies(extra/short material)

Hello,
We have recently implemented Shipment freight cost for Inbound Shipments. Shipment cost is calulated based on weight.
The issue we are facing is:
If In an Inbd/delivery there are two HU and each having 100 cartons(total shipment 200 cartons) and weight is 1000Kg per HU, so assmue total cost of the entire shipment (two HUs) is 2000 USD.
Shipment cost document is created and enter the cost as 2000 USD for entire shipment.
Now While PGR for first HU (inbound delivery) we found that qty is 110 car inplace of 100 cartons,
System calculate the Freight cost as 1100 USD and while PGR of the 2nd HU(inbound delivery) we found the correct qty 100 cartons and system calculate the freight cost as 1000 USD.
The problem is actual shipment cost is 2000 USD whereas system is calculating 2100 USD.....
Has anybody this issue earlier, please share your experience....
Regards,
JPS

Hi Michela,
This is possible by adding one more condition type with blank condition category and negative value in plus/minus field.
please refer the following wiki which gives step by step configuration.
Appreciate if it is useful

Purchase Order's Freight cost

Dear All,
I'm using SAP B1 2007B SL 0 PL 15. I have problems with the Freight cost on the distribution rule. It will not store the store or update the distribution rule code in PO, GR & Invoice. I have to manually tag the distribution rule code in the journal entry after the Invoices are posted. Does anyone face this problem or know how to solve this?
