Inbound shipment cost

Hi Expert,
We are using the shipment costing for Sales and distribution and business required the through purchase inbound delivery shipment costing. But how we configured the new pricing process for inbound delivery shipment cost.
Can any one tell me it is help full for me.
REgards,

Hi,
What do you mean by 'inbound delivery shipment costing' ? Don't you plan to create inbound shipments as a source data for inbound transportation costs?
The initial questions would be:
are you using EXW (ex-works) scenarios for inbound transportation where the whole cost belongs to receiving site? Or is there any hand-over point?
Additionally, in case of long transits land-ocean-land you usually need to pay for first leg before the goods arrive to destination. But then do you have inbound delivery/shipment created for that? What is the process of creating inbound deliveries?
The general principles of shipment costing for inbound/outbound are the same. But as mentioned above you need to pay attention to different process for inbound transportation.

Free PO with shipment costs from shipment cost document

Hello,
We have a scenario where materials is received free from vendor but shipments costs are still paid to the vendor.
For shipment costs, we are creating inbound delivery against PO, then Inbound shipment and inbound shipment cost document.
The requirement is that shipment costs should get updated in Moving avg price.
But If I am marking Purchase order as Free, shipment costs are also not getting updated during GR as system also considers shipments free of charge.
Is there a way to handle this problem.
We are creating GR through vl32n and not through MIGO.
Regards
Karan

Hi,
You can try this solution.
1.Do not tick the free indicator
2.Create a condition type for discount and put 100% discount for that condition.
3.Create a condition type for shipment as a value (delivery cost) without accruals tick in the codition type(customizing).
4.Enter the shipment cost for this condition.
5.Set the pricing procedure in such a way that the gross price of the PO will not consider this shipment cost.Hence the gross price of the PO will be zero (Free of cost) but the net price will consider the shipment cost.
This shipment cost will get loaded on to inventory.
As you have defined the shipment condition type as delivery cost condition type , you can change the vendor in details of the condtion if required.

normally we have customers in different parts of india, and we get third party orders from different customers. and we raise one single PO to vendor located in china. and he couriered the goods to Hong kong to chennai port. the container have different sales ordered goods.. from chennai it is moving to different parts of our indian customer's site. this is the scenario.
As per MM concern , I have to configure.
1.P O

You can map the process as

For this requirements are as
Define Routes & transportation zones
Maintain transportation relevance for Delivery types & delivery items & routes

LE-TRA Shipment costs as inbound delivery costs, goods receipt

Hello gurus:
We are facing the following scenario, regarding inbound transportation.
We plan our shipment document and shipment costs, and they feature several items. Each of those items represent a shipping service, which in certain cases be taken on different countries by the same service agent.
That is, we have a service X on country A, with tax indicator 1, and service Y on country B, with tax indicator 2.
Both services would need to be transferred as delivery costs to the purchase order.
According to note 427944, shipment cost value is cumulated by service agent., so that it looks impossible to get the values broken up to the purchase order, which would be the first step to subsequently get the right tax indicators for each item of the shipment.
Even using different condition types on the shipment cost document, system cumulates by service agent and transfers to the first condition found on the purchase order schema.
Has any of you faced similar issue? Any workaround possible?.
Thanks in advance for your valuable help.
David Ramos.
PORCELANOSA MM.
This is the section of note 427944 that indicates the treatment of the shipment costs in the purchase order,
Transfer the shipment costs into the condition types of the purchase order:
The shipment cost value (without tax amounts) is cumulated for all relevant shipment cost documents
for each service agent and transferred to a corresponding condition type of the purchase order item.
Before cumulation, the amounts are first converted into the purchase order currency.
1. A transfer of the values for each condition type (similar to the transfer from a shipment
cost document to the SD billing document) is not supported.
2. If different service agents exist in the shipment cost documents, a corresponding number of
condition lines (with value 0) must be specified in the purchase order item. These can always
belong to the same condition type (in schema 'Manual') or also to different condition types (not
'Manual'):
a) Manual condition lines: If the condition type in the schema of the purchase order is
marked as 'manual', the condition type must be created (with value 0) in the purchase order
item before the goods receipt. If delivery costs are expected from different service agents,
several non-valuated entries must be generated for this condition type. If more condition
lines exist than required, these are then no longer taken into account. If condition lines
are missing, the last service agents are not settled.
- Advantage: You only have to define one condition type for the delivery costs.
- Disadvantage: Each purchase order must be processed manually before the goods receipt.
b) Automatic condition lines: If the condition lines are to be generated automatically for
the delivery costs (the condition type is not flagged as 'Manual' in the schema), the schema
must have enough condition types to settle several service agents. If more condition lines
exist than required, these are then no longer taken into account. If condition lines are
missing, the last service agents are not settled.
- Advantage: The goods receipt can be carried out without manual preparation beforehand in
the purchase order.
- Disadvantage: You must define identical condition types with different names.

Hi,
If you refereed the OSS Note 427944 correctly it explains how the shipment cost can be transferred to delivery cost based on some pre-requisite.
Like the value for PO should be >0
Like the service agent is involved during shipment liability, then there should be cumulative transfer for each value which will update based on shipment cost if PO value is "0".
The shipment cost will be delivered to all delivery items based on weight.
If you want to enhance this then you need to use the enhancement V54KSFRC to update the values as per your requirement.

Shipment cost in inbound delivery

Dear Experts ,
I am facing a issue regarding shipment cost in inbound delivery processing .
My process is as folows.
1. Create a purchase order
2. Create inbound delivery
3. Create Shipment document
4 Create Shipment cost document.
My shipment cost is calculated on the basis of route.
I am able to determine route in inbound delivery by maintaining transportation Zone in vendor.
How ever when i am attaching that delivery to shipment document route is not determining .
My problem is that without route i cannot calculate cost.
Although we can enter the route manually in shipment document but due huge number of routes user is not ready to input route manually.
Note : I am facing issue in route determination in shipment document in case of inbound delivery.
Any help is appreciable
Regards
Jalaj

Hi,
   If your route is not getting copied from delivery to shipment document, go to the transaction 0VTK (its 0 not O) and go to details of the inbound shipment type (0010 in standard) and maintain the copy routine as 2 or 7 as shown below:
   Save the settings and test the scenario with a new inbound delivery. Now, if you the route is determined in delivery, the same will be copied to shipment, once you click on check in (or once the loading is completed).
    Test the scenario and revert back.

Shipment cost for inbound deliveries

HI ALL,
pls can anyone tell me how to transfer or add the frieht cost calculated during the inbound shipment to the material cost(inventory costing).
how is it doneand in which transaction it is done
pls ASASP
thanks in advance

Hi Vijay
You have to follow few mm and transportation module configuration settings: These are
1. In MM Pricing condition types: The freight condition type need to check, that is the option called Copy Shipment costs in MM Freight condition types(FRB1) should be activate.
2. In Purchase order the freight condition type(FRB1) with zero value always.
3. In transportation module in shipment cost item categories settings, you have to assign A-Shipment costs as a delivery costs in Shipment Relevant field.
4. You have to do the PGR after creating shipment and shipment cost documents.
5. Once you do the PGR the system will copy the shipment costs to material costs and system will generate separate line item in POHistory

Hi
On double clicking on the item level, respective item details of the material is displayed and then click SHIFT+ F6 to see the COSTCENTER in the shipement cost document.
Configuration:
1) In Item category configuration account assigment category is Cost Center.
Logistics Execution>Transportation>Shipment Costs>Shipment Cost Document>Shipment Cost Types and Item Categories-->Define item categories
2) In the Transaction code OKB9 Costcenter is assigned to the company code , in order to automate the determination of CO assignments in case of Shipment cost document creation

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.

G/R mandatory before shipment cost....

Shipment cost based on Value

I need your valuable suggestion on how to create the Value based shipment cost.
Our Process:
Create POS - Create Inbound delivery - Create Shipment - Create Shipment cost - Post Inbound Delivery.
So while posting the inbound delivery, the freight cost will post against the material. The invoice will be paid for the Vendor for the quantity purchased and freight charge will be paid for the freight Vendor(s).
We are adding the Vendor in the Shipment and adding the cost against the Vendor in the Shipment Cost.
Everything is working fine, but the shipment cost posting against the material was happening based on the delivery weight / quantity.
The reason for this asking the question is - we are receiving high value items and low value items with the same weight.
Question 1: Is it possible to have the shipment cost being split, calculated and posted against the material based on the PO Item received Value or PO Price
Quesion 2: Is it possible to post the shipment cost at a later date? Currently, the shipment cost posts when the inbound delivery is received (I know the material value will be posted when there is stock changes or price changes). But our issue is the invoice for the shipment cost will be received after a couple of days from the goods receipt. Right now we are entering couple of costs through assumption, then while postig the invoice, we adjust that value.
Note: I cannot enter the condition directly in the PO, as the same PO item will be partially received by multiple inbound deliveries

Freight carriers charges weight on the basis of Weight / volume of the items.SAP shipment works on the same principle.
Cost of transporting ton of Potataoes is same as transporting 10 ton of aluminium between two known destinations.
Hence it is illogical to distributes cost on the basis of item value. However if still you want to distribute the same on value basis then maintain freight condition(%) in PO as per your prefined logic of distribution of freight cost.
It is well known fact that cost of freight % is always higher in Low value items & iis low in case of High value items.

Please read OSS note 427944 and check SAP online help:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/83/218ad1068a11d2bf5d0000e8a7386f/frameset.htm
Prerequisites
To add shipment costs to delivery costs in the incoming shipments, you need the following settings in Customizing:
Shipment cost item categories
Under the Shipment cost types and item categories activity, set the Relevant for costing field to A = Relevant for calculating delivery costs (Delivery costs). This results in the shipment costs not being transferred directly into accounting. The accounting is done via the purchasing functionality for delivery costs.
Conditions in the purchase order
Under the Define condition types activity, set the Condition type field to B = Delivery costs. In addition, select the Transfer shipment costs field. The system only shows this field, if you have chosen delivery costs as condition type. In the purchase order, you have to enter the condition type in the item category section. However, you do not enter a value since this value will be determined by the shipment cost document and will then be automatically transferred to the goods receipt document.
Goods receipt
To find the relevant shipment cost documents, you must know the corresponding inbound deliveries. Therefore for incoming goods this must relate to confirmation-related goods receipts. Under the Set up confirmation control activity, select the GR-relevant and GR assignment fields for the appropriate confirmation control key (which is then entered in the purchase order).

Apportionment of shipment costs

Hello,
In our solution, the shipment cost are posted as delivery costs during the putaway.
If we make changes to the delivery data (in quantity), the delivery costs are received per item according to the weight (the apportionment of the costs are made according to the weight).
But, this is done according to the quantity we receive and not the quantity initialy saved in the inbound delivery.
For example, we have 100$ for shipment cost for two PO, two Inbound deliveries and one transport.
PO 1 :
Material A : 50 Kg.
PO 2 :
Material B : 50 Kg.
If the good receipt is:
PO 1 :
Material A : 1 Kg.
PO 2 :
Material B : 50 Kg.
the shipment cost will be apportionned like as following:
Material A : 1$.
Material B : 50$.
And, what we would like is :
Material A : 2$.
Material B : 98$.
For us, the total price has to be 100$ even if we receive only a part of the inbound delivery.
Do you have any idea on how we could manage that ?
Thanks,
Regards

Hi,
I think we have a similar requirement. For FCA transports is the transport cost zero. We have created a seperate condition in the cost procedure as a condition class A ( discount or surcharge ) in T_06. This has an access sequence assigned which uses a 9xx condition table (T_03) with fields Service agent f.stage ( TDLNR ) and
Incoterms ( INCO1 ). This enables us to maintain condition records in TK12. So FCA is maintained with 100 % deduction and thus no costs.

Problem in clearing the shipment costs to transporter

Hellow,
Scenario:
Step1:
1. I created on PO and I did one inbound delivery with reference to PO.
2. Then i did inbound shipment, and shipment cost document.
3. Shipment costs calculated based on weight of the delivery material, Here Weight is 3 To with 300/- per TO.
Total amount is 900.
3. Then i did MIGO with reference to inbound delivery.
4. Now system copied shipment costs to material costs.
5. Then i did MIRO for planned delivery costs(900/-) with reference to PO.
Step2:
1. same way i did one more inbound delivery for open items
2. Shipment document with reference to Inbound delivery.
3. Shipment cost document created, Here also only 3 To weight, but the freight rate is 200/- per TO, total cost is 600 only.
4. I did MIGO with reference to Inbound delivery
5. When i do the MIRO with reference to same PO for remaining 600/- planned delivery costs, system is not copying the 600/- from PO. It is copying the average on 900+600 for remaining delivery costs.
If we go with same freight rates this kind of problem is not happening. In different rate situation only this problem is occuring.
Can i have any solutions please?
With regards
Lakki

Hi Lakki,
May I know what's the condition type for the freight charges involved so that we could proceed to help you further.
Thank you.

Shipment cost for third party

Hi,
for the third party business (where the vendor delivers the material to customer directly), we want to bring the freight at customer invoice level and post to COPA. we don't follow shipment document creation for this. we create a PO and an inbound delivery with respect to PO and GR with respect to inbound. we enter the freight cost as a condition in the PO. during invoice verification this is posted in FI. finally we create a customer billing after this.
But if we want to bring the same freight to customer invoice, how can this be possible?
Even if we follow shipment creation and shipment cost creation for inbound delivery, how can we bring the freight cost in a customer billing document which is with respect to sales order?
Regards
Karthik
