Intercompany stk transport order process - Billing type determination

Dear All,
We are currently dealing one Roll-Out project for one multinational company. In that from sales side, one of the main processes defined is u201CStock Transport Purchase Order processu201D. As a regular process, outbound delivery document also created with ref to STPO.
As per the client requirement the u201CPackaging materialu201D needs to be added as additional line item in the delivery to calculate the packaging cost. We have customized that also and now u201CPackaging materialu201D is adding as a new line item in the delivery document as a non valuated material.
But the issue is, the Billing type u201CZICu201D is not getting determined while creation of billing if u201CPackaging materialu201D is added as a new line item. If u201CPackaging materialu201D is not added as a line item then, billing type is getting determined automatically without any issue.
We have checked in LIKP table, its containing the billing type as u201CZICu2019. But if packaging material is added then, the billing type determination is not happening.
We are assuming that some customizing needs to be done from MM/SD point of view. I am seeking the experts help regarding this issue to solve the problem.
Regards,
MANI

Hi
Does your goods and packing material use the same item category ? If not, is the item category for the packing material relevant for billing (TVAP-FKREL) ?

Intercompany stock transport order : MM pricing = SD pricing

hi all,
Intercompany stock transport order process :
ME21N <-- MM pricing
VL10
VF01 <-- SD pricing
MIGO
MIRO
Is there a standard (!!!) or a known method to get in any case : SD pricing = MM pricing ?
Using the standard customizing we have to maintain an identical price on both sides purchasing and sales. It could be better !
Thanks for help

Hi Alain,
1.Create a vendor for the company code of receiving plant, using account group :0007 using T-Code XK01.
2. Assign this vendor to Delivering plant, Go to XK02 >Purchasing view>Extras>Add. Purchasing data>Plant
3. Create internal customer with the sales area of the vendor. Go To XD01
4. In Pricing procedure determination relevant to STO, assign document Pricing Procedure and customer pricing procedure appropriate for STO to get the pricing in the invoice.
5. Maintain condition records for the relevant pricing condition.
6. Some more setting for STO: Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO> define shipping data for plants > Go to Receiving plant >assign customer here & Supplying SA (for billing) to Receiving plant here
7. Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO> define shipping data for plants > Go to Supplying plant and assign the sales area of receiving plant.
8. Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO> assign delivery Type & Checking rule
Assign the delivery type to document type. In this case, Delivery type NLCC is assigned to Document type NB
9. Go to MM> Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set up STO>Assign document Type, One step Procedure, Under delivery tolerance
Assign the document type NB to supplying plant and receiving plant
10. After all settings , Create the STO using T-Code:ME21N and Save.
11. Create Delivery :VL10G
Click on the Background Button after selecting line item
A message is flashed : See log for information> next Click on Log for delivery creation Button >click on line item>click on document button to get Delivery document No
12. Picking, PGI:VL02N
13. Billing:VF01

Stock Transport Order-shipping point not determined

Hi MM Gurus,
We need to set up STO for transferring stock from plant 2000 to 1000. I have completed following setting.
IMG
Enterprise Structure-Assignment-Sales and Distribution-Assign sales organization to company code
Both the sales orgnizations are in same company code. We have only one company code.
Enterprise Structure-Assignment-Sales and Distribution-Assign sales organization - distribution channel - plant
The sales area 1000 is are assigned to both the plants 1000 & 2000 and sales area 2000 is also assigned to both the plants.
Enterprise Structure-Assignment-Logistics Execution-Assign shipping point to plant
Plant 1000 is assigned to sales area 1000 & 2000. Plant 2000 is assigned to sales area 1000 & 2000.
Materials Management-Purchasing-Purchase Order-Set up Stock Transport Order-Define Shipping Data for Plants
For plant 1000 & 2000 cusomer master 56 & 57 respectively are maintained. The sales orginzation for these plants are 1000 & 2000 respectively.
Materials Management-Purchasing-Purchase Order-Set up Stock Transport Order-Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule
Delivery type NL has been assigned to document type UB.
The details of customer master 56 & 57 are as below
Account Group - Sold To Party
Reconcilliation account -121000
Delivery plant 1000 & 2000 respectively
Please note - No vendor number is maintained in these cusomer masters.
Created these plants as vendors
Account group 0007(Plants) and assigned plant numbers in the additional data of purchasing.
Material 251 is created and maintained in both the sales orgnization.
Now when I am creating the STO for transferring goods from plant 2000 to 1000, I am getting error message.
"Not possible to determine shipping data for material 251"
Am I missing something? Some documentation say that I should create a receiving plant as customer in the sales area of supplying plant. If this is true, how to do it?
Also, what is the significance of return vendor (maintaining vendor master in the customer) in this case?
Your any clue will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Shekhar

Shekhar,
Customer must be maintained as a shipto as well.
In your STO config settings you don't need a customer assigned to the source plant, unless it will also be a destination plant (e.g. you also intend to execute STOs in the reverse direction, or from another plant).
While looking at your customer (shipto), you will also want to look at Route Determination for this customer. Typically, your route will be defined by customer zone (from cust master), shipping point zone (from shipping point definition configuration), and shipping conditions (customer master). Route will be used during delivery creation to schedule the delivery. Logically, the total duration between Material Availability date to Delivery date of the delivery (picking/packing/load/transit) should be something close to the planned delivery time in the Material Master, in order to maintain consistency throughout the entire planning and execution process.
Don't forget to maintain your STO Purchase req stuff IMG>MM>Purch>PurReq>Set up Stock Transport Requisition.

Intercompany Stock Transport Orders

Hi All,
My current Client's Intercompany Stock Transport order involves 3 Company Codes. The final receiving company code will place STO to the second Company Code, but the Goods will be delivered by the third Company Code.
The tricky part is the Vendor number should be the Goods Delivering Company Code and not the second company code, the second company code is only for accounting purposes.
So what we did, we created VN Vendor, but not assigned the Delivering Plant to this Vendor. Instead we created GS Vendor and assigned the Delivering Plant to this GS vendor and assigned this GS as Partner in Vendor Master.
Now when I try to create STO, only VN vendor's name and address is populating as per Standard SAP Design, and moreover Shipping details are not populating. what we need is GS Vendor's number, name and address should replace VN data in STO Header.
I am quite surprised to know if there is any User Exits available to make this design to work?
I request MM Experts to help me.
Thanks,
Sundar.

Hi Sundar,
I am not fully clear on your requirements.
Let's say you have 3 company codes with different plant codes:
CC A - with plant 1111
CC B - with plant 2222
CC C - with plant 3333
Now, according to what I understand from financial perspective C should do purchasing from B and B should purchase products from CC A.
But what I also got is that from logistics perspective, you would like to make a movement between plants 1111->3333, without going through plant '2222'. Is that what you expect??
If yes, that would be very weird scenario. Because then according to me any financial audit would claim that there was no actual sales/purchases between the companies.
Normally what is done in such case is that both the stock movements as well as financial postings are done between the companies and plants. So that the last PO is against CC B which is represented by Vendor linked to plant 2222.
Of course physically the goods should be transferred between locations 1111 and 3333. And this you can achieve via special delivery note layouts etc.
What I was also involved is automatization of such process. So that after goods issue from plant 1111, there is automatic GR and GI from plant 2222. So that at 3333 there is only manual GR required when goods physically arrive there.
Hope this helps

I really appreciate if anyone explain me how to execute Intercompany stock transfer order with intercompany billing scenario.
I used T-Code ME27, but unable to do delv and intercompany billing
thanks in advance

vaseem

hi
Material should exist in both the plants (Delivering & Ordering),
Internal customer should be assaigned to the ordering plant ( MM -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Setup stock transport order -> assign the internal customer to the ordering plant and assign the Sales area of the internal customer.
Assign its Sales area to the delivering plant
Assign the document type and Delivery type NB and NLCC
Assign the Supplying plant --> Receiving Plant --> NB
Take the delivering plant and assign the sales area.
Vendor master has to be created and assaign the supply source ( Delivering Plant).
Create a puchase order ME21N ---> Save
Delivery VL10 G ---> Calculation rule (appropriate) --> Assaign the purchase order number here and execute.
Select the Delivery creation line and do the back ground process.
Start the log display and see the delivery document number by the documents button
Goto VL02N --> do picking and PGI --> Then do the MIGO with respect to the delivery document.
Billing (Intercompany pricing conditions should be set).

Stock transport order with movement type 643 - post to COPA

Hello SAP gurus,
We use movement type 643 to post good issues for stock transport order (intercompany process). The delivery type is NLCC. We recently implemented account-based COPA. At the time of post goods issue, cost of goods sold should be posted to COPA, but it didn't. Could someone help me figuring out how to push PGI to COPA for stock transport order? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Cassandra Wong

The reason that PA segment is not populated in the good issue for STO is because the cost element of the COGS account was set to "01" instead of "12". I changed the cost element category and the PA segment is populated correctly.

Stock Transport order issueing storage location determination

Folks,
In case of a Stock transport order scenario in which plant A with SLOC1 delivery to plant B with SLOC 2. Is there any option how the issueing storage location can be determined? The delivering plant can be determined through the special procurement key but there is no option for the issueing SLOC.

MdZ

Hey Karen!
I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly.
You do not want the system to create a new MARD entry when postin goods issue.
You can enable/ disable this function with transaction OMB3 in the customizing.

Item Category "U" in Intercompany Stock Transport Order

Hi Gurus,
Your expert advise on the below functionality is needed..
Scenario:
Intercompany STO, Document Type : NB , Delivery Type : NLCC
In the Source List, Intercompany Vendor and the Supplying Plant is maintained. Also i have made the Source list relevant for MRP.
MRP is run for the material, SAP generates PR(Document Type NB) with Item Category "U" -Stock Transfer.
I am getting error message when creating PO with reference to this PR, as Standard PO document type NB does not have link to Item Category "U - Stock Transfer".
For Intercompany STO, Item Category should be blank, I am not sure why SAP generates PR with Item Category "U".
If i do not maintain the Source List and generate PR it is created with Item category as blank. Then i am able to manually assign the Source of supply.
Kindly let me, what needs to be done to generate PR for Intercompany STO in MRP without Item Category "U' in it.
Regards,
Hemant

Hi,
SAP creates the requisition with item category "U" even in case of cross-company (intercompany) purchase requisition.
When converting it to PO the item category becomes blank - as I tried and I got no error message.
Please check your settings under SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types (V_T161). You will see (if standard settings have not been changed) that NB requisition type with "U" item category is allowed for NB purchase order type with " " (empty) item category.

Csaba

Intercompany Stock Transport Orders - Inventory Revaluation & GATP

We have intercompany STOs setup using PO document type NB, using the two-step setup, with delivery and billing document/invoice.
The issues we are having is APO-GATP and FI/MM related:
1) FI/MM Issue: Because of the long transit times (6 - 8 weeks in-transit), if the inventory is revalued/recosted after the PGI and before the GR, the difference in the inventory value (between the PGI-643 and the GR-101) ends up being posted to a Price Difference account. Our Finance department then has to manually identify these postings, and make the necessary adjustments or re-posting to the Inventory Revaluation account.
2) APO-GATP Issue: We are currently investigating the possible solution of changing this to a one-step setup, and add some kind of user exit or enhancement so that the PGI will also trigger the GR, but the inventory will be received into blocked stock instead of unrestricted stock. We want the inventory that is in-transit, to NOT be available to GATP. Then, when the inventory actually arrives at the destination plant, we will post a MB1B movement type 344 into unrestricted stock. This solution may work if the blocked stock does not get revalued when we post a MB1B mvmt type 344 (we will have to test this out).
If anyone has come across similar issues as I have attempted to describe above and implemented a solution, or has any ideas or suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them.
Thank you.

DB49,
Yes, we normally revalue our inventory annually, so this issue would be confined to a 6-8 week period when inventory is in-transit. I believe part of the issue with the price differences, is also related to foreign currency exchange rates (different company code currencies), but I'm not the FI expert either, just been asked to "look into" this issue.
Another possible scenario is to setup another plant in the receiving company code, with one-step STO, so the inventory will be received into this new plant when it is PGI'ed from the sourcing plant. Then, create a UB STO from this plant to the destination plant (same company code), which will require another posting when the inventory actually arrives. There is a lot of master data setup for this (lots of materials and lots of company codes/plants combination), and it will still cause problems for the Logistics people. Maybe this is something they can do during "that time of the year" when the inventory will be revalued. It will still require master data setup though.
I'm aware that there is no "ideal" solution for this. Whatever proposal we come up with, one group is going to end up with the extra workload to take the burden off the other group.
Thanks for responding so quickly.

Hello Saravanan,
Milestone billing means distributing the total amount to be billed over multiple billing
dates in the billing plan.
As each milestone is successfully reached, the customer is billed either a percentage of
the entire project cost or simply a pre-defined amount.
During sales order processing, the system determines from the item category whether a
billing plan is required and, if so, which type of plan
The type of billing plan that is determined at this point is set up in Customizing and
cannot be changed in the sales document.
Billing plans for periodic billing and milestone billing plans for project-related milestone
billing have different overview screens so that you can enter data relevant to your
processing.
For example, for milestone billing, you must be able to enter data to identify the
individual milestones.
IMG configuration requires :-
1. Maintain billing plan types for milestone billing in OVBO.
2. Define date description in SM30 - V_TVTB.
3. Maintain Date Category for Billing Plan Type IN OVBJ.
4. Allocate date category in SM30 - V_TFPLA_TY.
5. Maintain date proposal for Billing Plan Type in OVBM.
6. Assign Billing Plan Type to Sales Documents Type in OVBP.
7. Assign Billing Plan Type to Item Categories in OVBR.
8. Define rules for determining the date in OVBS.
Milestone billing is typically used for billing projects, such as plant engineering and
construction projects. Such projects often include a series of milestones that mark the
completion of different stages of the work. In the SAP R/3 System, milestones are defined
in a network along with planned and actual dates for the completion of work. The milestones
are also assigned to the billing dates in the billing plan.
Each milestone-related billing date is blocked for processing until the Project System
confirms that the milestone is completed.
Delivery-relevant order items for which a milestone billing plan applies are billed on the
basis of the requested delivery quantity and not on the total of the confirmed quantities.
The connection between the project and the sales document item is made in the individual
schedule lines of the item. Each schedule item can be assigned to a network in a project.
To display the project-related data for a schedule line, proceed as follows:
In one of the overview screens of the sales document, select
1. Item -> Schedule lines.
2. Mark the schedule line and select Procurement details.
The following figure shows an example of milestone billing where only the Contract have
been billed :
Order Item Turbine    100,000
Billing Plan
Billing date Description    % Value Billing Block   Milestone   Billing Status
01-10-94     Contract      10 10,000      -             x           x
01-03-95     Assembly      30 30,000      x             x
01-04-95     Maintenance   30 30,000      x             x
01-05-95     Acceptance    30 30,000      x             x
01-06-95     Final invoice ..    ..        x
Network/Activities
Milestone    Estimate      Actual
Assembly     01-03-95      01-03-95
Maintenance 01-04-95
Acceptance   01-05-95
For each billing date in a milestone billing plan, you can specify whether the billing
date is:
1. fixed
2. always updated with the actual date of the milestone
3. updated with the actual date of the milestone, if the date is earlier than the
    planned billing date for the date
