Freight  in Purchase

Dear Experts ,
In my clients organization the freight value is uploaded on the material cost.
The scenario is as under :
1. PO is made for material X,Y,Z for 1000 , 2000 & 3000 qty  resp.
    The delivery schedule is as under :
     on date 1 :  X = 50 qty , Y = 1000 qty & Z = 500 qty is to be delivered ::::::: Consignment 01
     on date 2 :  X =150 , Y = 1000 & Z = 2000 qty is to be delivered .::::::: Consignment 02:
     on date 3 :  X= 800, & Z = 500 qty is to be delivered .::::::: Consignment 03
     on date 4 :  Z = 500 qty is to be delivered .
The freight vendors & the freight values for these three consignments are not known until the material arrives at the factory.
Also freight is a header level assignment &  not an item level assignment .
2. The person doing the GR CANNOT CHANGE THE PO  & the PO changing is a long process .Hence the PO cannot be changed any how before the GR.
My question is :
HOW CAN THIS SCENARIO BE HANDLES SO THAT THE MATERIAL IS VALUATED CORRECTLY " AT THE TIME OF GOODS RECEIPT " & NOT INVOICE VERIFICATION .
Regards
Anis

Hello Amit ,
Thanks for the reply .
The three different consignment can have different Freight vendors . Hence before the GR  even if PO needs to be  changed what vendor should be added ?

  • Freight in Purchase Order

    Hi Guru's,
                    I want to raise a PO in which my transportation vendor is different then material vendor but I want to inventories the freight cost on material purchased.
    So, how this can be done. Plz give solution asap ..URGENT...
    Will assign full points for helpful answer.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    Hi Abhishek,
    In order to do that, you have to create 2 PO's: one to material vendor (PO with "Item Type") and second to transportation vendor (PO with "Service Type").
    Do the GRPO for the material PO, after that use landed costs function to add your transportation fee to material cost. Landed cost document use GRPO for material so that you have to input material vendor not the transportation vendor in vendor code field.
    Input the amount of transportation fee in costs tab, then click "ADD" button.
    Please not that the journal is not automatically created, you have to click "Create Journal Entry" in the Journal Tab after you "ADD" the landed cost document.  After that create A/P Invoice --> Outgoing Payment
    The second PO, which will be send to transportation vendor use specific account code (it depends on your customer, while some others use "Freight Account").  Then create GRPO (not mandatory) --> A/P Invoice --> Outgoing Payment.
    Hopefully can help you.

  • Freight for Purchase and sales process

    Hi,
    I have a scenario where i'll purchase material with Freight charges from the Vendor, Now the same freight charge i'll imposed on customer while billing.
    I'll be using same Freight GL account for both purchase and sales process.
    I have configured the process by assigning same GL in the account keys in the pricing procedure for Purchase and sales process for the Freight condition.I have tested the scenario and i was very confused.
    Scenario:
    i have created a PO and made GR, the accounting entries were,
    Stock account ...........Dr.
    GR/IR................Cr.
    Freight...........Cr.
    While performing invoice verification the accounting entries are,
    Vendor.......... Cr.
    GR/IR........ Dr.
    Freight....... Dr.
    Accounting entries during Billing to customer,
    Customer.......Dr
    Sales.......Cr.
    Freight......Cr.
    Freight......Dr.
    Let say for Purchase and Sales process i have used GL 600016 as Freight account.
    IF i have paid Rs 500 for Freight to vendor, then i'll be imposing an amount of Rs 500 to customer as freight charges.
    Please guide if i had made any mistake in configuring the process
    also please advice is there any way to check the GL balance, like the amount to be collected from customer as freight as i'll be using same GL.
    Regards,
    Rahul

    Hi all ;
    SD process is not logical with outcome account 600016. For me , you can collect freight costs a different account for sd .
    For sd configurations , you can benefit from belowed path.
    Spro-->SD-->Basic Functions-->Account Assignment/Costing-->Assign G/L Accounts

  • Freight provision in purchase order

    Hi,
    I have 2 cases.
    case1 the price in purchase info record is a lumpsum of material cost + freight
    case2 the price in purchase info record is only material cost
    May I know if case 1, I should provide for freight? I only need to provide for case 2 in purchase order, correct?
    thanks

    Hi Kunal,
    Thanks alot.
    If it is lumpsum (material cost + freight) maintained in PIR and i also have freight condition provided in purchase order, I thought this would be additionally accrual? and the differences will go to price difference if it is based on standard cost.
    Kindly let me know if i understand correctly.
    example
    material cost + freight = $1000
    when i have freight condition of 1%, then i will have $10 additional.
    So I think if lumpsum then should not provide freight during purchase order.
    Kindly advise.
    Thanks

  • Questions about Unplanned deliv cost as Freight in Invoice

    Hi Experts,
    I believe if you don't have any condition for freight in purchase order, then only way to charge freight in Invoice is by using "Unplanned deliv cost" field. My questions are:
    1. Is there any way that we can calculate tax on this unplanned deliv cost value?
    2. Can we have some tolerance limit for "Unplanned Deliv. cost". (e.g $500)?
    We are receiving invoice through EDI.
    Regards,
    Kamal

    1. Is there any way that we can calculate tax on this unplanned deliv cost value?
    Yes, you can. Go to OMR2 trasnaciton adn maintain the tax code for you rcompany than it will populate that in tax code in MIRO for unplanned
    if you want to see the tax code in MIRO than in the SPRO-MM-Invoice verificaiton-Incoming invoice- Configure How Unplanned Delivery Costs Are Posted
    here you have to maintain the 2 in your company code
    than only you can see the tax code in MIRO for unplanned delivery cost
    2. Can we have some tolerance limit for "Unplanned Deliv. cost". (e.g $500)?
    No, this free form fiedl except you use the custom code or user eixt for this to control

  • How can I calculate freight using Conditions ME21N

    HI Friends,
    I have a problen calculating freight in Purchase Order, For that reason I create a  Z Condition, my problem is I would like to get for each position a propotional value of general freight( in the Purchase Header)
    I create an exit in VOFM but I couldn't modify the condition value.
    Thanks

    "If you want to reduce the figures down to their simplest form i.e. 2:1 then that's another matter"
    And a fairly simple one :-) Since division always give you a ratio x:1, something like:
    SQL> WITH t AS (SELECT 'M' sex FROM dual CONNECT BY rownum<=200
      2             UNION ALL
      3             SELECT 'F' FROM dual CONNECT BY rownum<=100)
      4  SELECT 'Ratio M:F is '||ROUND(male/female, 2)||':1' ratio
      5  FROM (SELECT COUNT(DECODE(sex, 'M', 1)) male,
      6               COUNT(DECODE(sex, 'F', 1)) female
      7        FROM t);
    RATIO
    Ratio M:F is 2:1John

  • How to post Freight Charge in INbound INVOIC Idoc? (MM Invoice Verif)

    Hi Folks,
    Would like to post an inbound invoice(810) IDoc  that has multiple line items that may or may not have variances(quantity, price, etc.). MM Logistics Invoice verification is the process used for posting our invoices for raw materials. We would like for the line item variances to continue to post to the PPV account. Our problem is freight. Freight in this instance is in the header of the IDOC(segment E1EDK05). For example, we create a purchase order with 3 line items for $100.00 each totaling $300.00 for the purchase order. We receive an EDI Invoice for $345.00 which contains a $45.00 charge in the header for freight. We would like for the freight to be posted to the appropriate account. Currently the $45.00 difference in P/O total and Invoice total is being posted to the PPV account. Your helpis appreciated!
    What if Freight charge is populated as Line item in the inbound invoic idoc. Will the inbound program allow this kind of posting??
    Throw some light experts.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    Yes, you can include the freight cost in line item as well but that would not be advisable. Why don't you include Fright Cost in your pricing procedure ??? Do check the following link

    Hi,
    Are you using the copy from or copy to option?
    If so check whether the same tax code has been drawn to the target document?
    Does this happens only for this document?

  • Inbound freight - Goods receipt before Shipment cost document

    Hi,
    We are in process of implementing Transportation module for capturing Inbound freight.
    All our test cases passed except 2) mentioned below:
    Operationally transactions sequence can happen in two ways:
    1) Purchase Order -> Inbound delivery -> Shipment document ->Shipment Cost ->Goods receipt ->Invoice verification - Materials
    > Invoice verification - Freight
    2) Purchase Order -> Inbound delivery -> Goods receipt ->Shipment document -> Shipment Cost ->  Invoice verification - Materials
    > Invoice verification - Freight
    In case 1 we are we are getting correct results as freight amount is getting added in material cost during MIGO as below
    Inventory              Dr          (is sum of GR/IR and Frt Provision)
    GR/IR                    Cr
    Frt Provision         Cr
    While in case 2) since MIGO is done prior to shipment document we are not able to get FI effects for freight cost. Hence Invoice booking is not possible for freight neither it is getting added into materials.
    Results expected as below :
    In case 1 , same as it is happening today.
    In case 2, it should post freight provision at shipment cost document so that freight booking can be done.
            Inventory       Dr
            Frt Provision  Cr
    It will be of great help if anybody suggest solution on this.

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    Is it possible to add individual taxes for line items for PO ?
    Yes...Tax code and jurisdiction code is item specific...If you are not familiar with taxation, please leave the responsibility to the tax consultant in your project...It is a very specialized area and legal issues can arise if not done properly...of course, you can learn but a matter of time...
    is it possible for set different taxes for different materials from same vendor ?
    yes...this is also pretty much standard
    At creation of PO user does not know the frieght charge, in this case what is the better way to resolve the problem ?
    Freight Provisions is a standard SAP solution...they can put expected amount...system will automatically take care of actuals...read standard SAP's documentation for Freight Provisions and handling freight in purchase...

  • Purchase Analysis Excluding Freight Charges

    Hi
    In purchase analysis report you got Accessable value only.  I think there is no way to add frieght charges in that report.

  • Freight cost in a purchase order when generating automatic freight cost

    Hi Experts,
    when i generate automaticly a Purchase Order whith a freight cost, in the PO it keeps the first freight in the Item Overview.
    When it generate more freight cost in the same PO, the first Freight Cost stay in the Item Overview, and the freight cost is increasing in the Item : PO History. right.
    Is it possible to remove the first entry from the Item Overview or put the total of the freight cost who are incresing in the PO??
    Thanks in advance.
    Dom.

    Hi dev,
    We did something similar last week. To charge the freight cost to the receiving party we did a manual service entry sheet for that. 
    We created a separate Po with Transport vendor and the receiving plant and account type is Z shipment costing and service item description as intercompany freight.
    You will specify the limit of the amount here, and   specify the G/L account here. Now create the service entry sheet withthe freight amount and settle.
    I think you can follow the similar thing with additional lines for your requirement for other charges.
    Since we want let the receiving plant pay the freight we didn't create the shipment cost document of LE-TRA.
    Let see if any other suggestions comes.

  • Scenario on Purchasing Process - Freight Charges to Different Vendor

    Hi Experts,
    We have a business scenario here that we want to implement on the MM - Purchasing Process.
    My Client's industry is on Selling Mixed Concrete. Every time they make Contract with Scheduling Agreements, for Raw Materials like Cement 20MM or DUST, on each available Plant from a partner company on a different location. Some of the Location are not inside the country as well.
    When we do Scheduling Agreement, we do a blank quantity for example, 30,000 for 20MM on Plant A and 10,000 for 20MM on Plant B. During the creation of Schedule Lines, we key in differect schedules of delivery (incl PGR). Then by the end of the Period, we create a Vendor Invoice.
    However on some delivery item, we have a scenario where from a specific Vendor A, we have a Vendor B that delivers our Materials to our Plant (Transporter Vendor). So we have to create another Invoice for them. We have to have 1 Invoice for the Supplier and 1 Invoice for the Transporter Vendor.
    I understand that SAP can do 2 Vendor assignment on PO, 1 for Material Goods and 1 for Freight Charge. The Amount will sum up per Ordered Item and during PGI, the Material Cost will be based on this amount. I'm okay with the first statement but the summed amount is not okay with some scenarios.
    The problem with some scenarios is that we should not base the Freight Charge on the schedule quantity. We agreed that the Quantity to be considered for Freight Charge is based on their Shipment Tonnage Agreement (which is weighed on the Vendor 2's side). Then for the Schedule Line Qty, we have to take the Average Weight from our side and from their side, and that should be the Schedule Line Qty. The Amount to be posted in PGR line item should be the amount from the Schedule Line Qty and the Freight Charge based on the Shipment Tonnage Agreement and the Material Cost will be valuated with the sum of these values. At the end of the Month, we create an Invoice for the 2 Vendors at the same time: one with Freight Charge the other on is the Stock Amount.
    So for this requirement, is there a way we can add another Quantity, based on the Shipment Tonnage Agreement to calculate the Freight Charge inside, And the Transporter Vendor, in the Schedule Line Conditions to be included in the PGR?
    Please suggest me configurations to do this also.
    Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

    Hi Cruz,
    If your requirement is to bill on the monthly average basis for the freight vendor, you can create new condition type for freight based on quantity. Use the calculation type 'M' - Quantity monthly price, in conjunction with the scales and use the scale basis 'C' if the freight cost is fixed based on your shipment agreement.
    If your agreement is based on no.of shipments use the scale basis 'S' - no. of shipping units.
    Even if these two are not suiting use the scal basis 'G' - formula and define the calculation based on your requirement.
    Once this is configured for the condition type. Then maintain the conditiona values accordingly.
    Hope this is helpful.

    Satya
