How to reduce shipping cost..

Dear All SAP Guru's,
Our biggest distributor Ingram Micro and our EMT want to reduce shipping costs.Ingram Micro wants less handling of the boxes so there is less damage.
Currently SAP Consolidation is not working properly for consolidating the smaller boxes.  We need to have SAP Consolidation work for multiple deliveries into one pallet for one shipment.  The bill of lading sapscript must show the correct information. Currently the bill of lading is not showing the correct information when trying to consolidate.  The ASN labels need to work properly and hopefully have one label per pallet.
They are using ADC(Advance data Collector)guns to consolidate delieveries into a cartoon.what they want to achieve is;ability to consolidate delieveries into a pallet while continue to use ASN(Advance shipping notification) which requires separation of delieveries according to PO etc. The ADC is outside SAP and they have some 3rd party who service and support it.it has its own server that send data to SAP.
Please guide how to proceed.
Thanks in advance.
With best regards,
BHarat B

    Hi
    Create shipment doc. t.code: VT01n
    Create shipment cost doc. t.code: VI01
    Shipment cost settlement and documents
    Use
    After the shipment cost settled in shipment cost document, it has the following affects:
    •It creates a service entry sheet that refers to the purchase order determined.
    •It posts acceptance of services performed.
    •It creates an accounting document for the accruals.
    •Further subsequent documents are created in FI.
    Now we check some of the above documents by using the document flow.
    Procedure
    1.Access the transaction using:
    Menu Logistics  Logistic Execution  Transportation Shipment cost  Display Single document
    Transaction code VI02
    2.Enter values like this in selection screen:

    3.Press enter, on the Standard display – Overview: Freight Cost Items screen, press document flow button.
    4.Double click the service acceptance line and you can see the system post a service goods receipts upon the purchase order, also you can check the accounting document.
    5.Exit the shipment cost document.
    Settlement with forwarding agency
    Use
    After the shipment document was settled, it generates a record in GR/IR, and after we receive invoice from the vendor and post incoming invoice, the GR/IR account is cleared and the vendor’s A/P account is debited.
    The following steps are included:
    • check the GR/IR account
    • check the vendor’s A/P account
    • post invoice from the vendor by using Logistic invoice verification,
    • check GR/IR account and vendor’s account again.
    Procedure
    1.For checking GR/IR account, Access the transaction using
    Menu Logistics  Material Management Logistic Invoice Verification GR/IR account maintenance  Maintain GR/IR account
    Transaction code MR11
    2.Enter values like this in selection screen:
    Field Name Value Comments

    8.For posting invoice from the vendor, Access the transaction using
    Menu Logistics  Material Management Logistic Invoice Verification Enter invoice
    Transaction code MIRO
    9. Enter values like this in selection screen:

    10.Execute, you can see the relative cost amount is bring from the shipment cost document
    11.Press Basic data tab and enter the same amount as the filed amount in PO reference tab. you may calculate the tax by yourself or by the system, but make sure the balance is zero (the traffic light is green). If the system asks for baseline date, enter system date.
    12.Post the document by pressing the save button.
    13.Check the invoice
    14. Check the GR/IR account, you can use t-code or by menu like in step 1-3, here, you will find the GR/IR acc. cleared.

(fyi -- cmd field has index with not null constraint).What does these cost numbers mean? Do you know what it means and what measurement unit is used for these costs? Will a cost of 2000 be fine? 1500? What specific number will make you sit back and think that the cost is now acceptable?
    Or instead, do you not think it is more important to rather look at what the query does and why.. and then determine if there are methods to do that better and faster?
    So let's look at what the query does. It uses a a LIKE predicate. This means that if an index is available, it cannot be used to find a specific indexed value... as the query is not sure what the value is. All that the query knows is what the first couple of characters are for the value.
    So how would an index be used? Have you looked at the execution plan? Do you understand why the CBO made the decision it did?
    Now - how do you expect the CBO to find the relevant rows any faster? The index benefits the query how? As the CBO cannot put the index to any better use than what it is already doing, what other options are there? Can alternative indexing or data structures be considered? Can parallel processing be used?
    These questions are intended to make you analyse the problem - and understand the problem. That is always the 1st step.. solving the problem only comes after this 1st step.

  • How to reduce IO COST???

    Dear All,
    Any one know how to reduce the IO COST?
    Thanks In advance.

    Your question is as generic as it could possibly be, and therefore it's not easy to help you. But in a nutshell, IO can be improved by spreading your tablespaces on different different disk readers/writers (not the correct word I'm sure, but hopefully you understand what I mean). Might be good for example to store your indexes in a different tablespace (disk) than the tables, so that there is not too much contention when using the index and table concurrently for a query. You could also reduce the amount of IO by creating new indexes when FTS against large tables are run (if enough of the rows are filtered out). Sorry, that was a very generic answer to a very generic question.

    DBMS_PROFILER is one way to analyse where the time is being spent. You can use this from the command line, or many GUI tools such as PL/SQL Developer provide a convenient interface.

  • How to reduce cost for SAP Fiori Trial on CAL?

    Hi,
    I have created an account in Cloud Appliance Library with AWS as per OpenSAP  Course.
    It's showing the cost per hour as 3.30 USD  and per month 2379.20 USD.
    Can anyone suggest me how to reduce this cost per month to the minimum.
    I can't pay this much amount.
    Please guide how to utilize this at the optimum w.r.t to the cost.
    Regards,
    Ramana.

    Hi Ramana,
    The easiest way to optimize the costs is to suspend the instance when not used. The scheduling options in SAP CAL could help here.

    hi
    my question is how we do shipping cost in route determination.  How it will effect.
    can any one know about shipping pricing procedure.Means Transportation cost
    Thanks in advance.

    Shipment costing following requirement must be met
    1. you must mark shipment as relevant for shipment costing
    2. the shipment must have the required total status as set in the definition of the shipment cost type
    3. the shipment must have a transportation status of at least planned
    4. shipment must have a service agent
    5. customising for the shipment cost pricing must be set
    spro-- logistics execution-- transportation- shipment  costs-pricing- ( this setting)
    6. finally condition records must eb maintained
    CALCULATION OF SHIPMENT COSTS
    1. By using the transportation planning point, service agent shipment cost item category and shipping type the system determines a pricing procedure for shipmetn cost item
    2. the system determines shipment costing calculation basis for the individual condition types in the pricing procedure ( eg costing carried out per container and stuff)
    3. then normal condition record is searched in pricing  proc .
    Hope this gives clarity to your question
    Cheers

    Without knowing your tables and what indexes you have defined on them and without knowing the number of rows of data as well as the cardinality and selectivity of the data, we're not going to be able to give any real advice.

  • How to delay or stop get quote email and to send later when the actual shipping cost is work out.

    How can I delay or stop get quote email from being automatically sent. I want to send manually later when the actual shipping cost is work out. Thanks

    No problems, I've had the same type of customers, I build shipping systems that had different shipping options for different countries. If you selected Australia it used BC Aussie post system upto a certain size then switched to a local shipper if it was too big and also if you choose say the UK it would use a custom DHL price table. Even can tie it directly to the API's of the shipping companies to get real time prices and fuel charges if you need it.

    I shipped an item out of the country. The package came back undeliverable.I advised the buyer it was returned to me. They wanted it re-shipped, but did not want to pay shipping charges of over $70!I told them I could not ship it again, but I would refund their purchase price. I did that, they opened a claim with Pay Pal.Actually the reason for their claim was "item not as described" I uploaded proof of the papers on the returned package showing the address was "unknown" Pay Pay decided in favor of the buyer and refunded their shipping cost. Now I am out that money.How can I protect myself as a seller in cases like that?Thank you in advance

    Well to be fair the item was not delivered to the buyer so they deserved a full refund. There is always someone that loses out and it always has to be the seller as if someone pays a seller to deliver an item to them and it does not arrive then of course they want all their money back. There is not a lot you can do to protect yourself in these situations apart from not selling internationally as that will reduce the risk a tad.      *************************************************  I give up my time to help you so a thank you or kudos would be cool.
    Marking one of my replies as a solution would be appreciated if I sorted your problem.
