Landed Costs Question

Hello!
I need your help on Landed Cost.
I have a few goods receipts that are open to perform Landed Cost. But these goods receipts do not require landed cost.
I thought it was probably coming from Item Master Set up. Customs Group was set ‘Al Target’, even though the rate shows 0 % (= Blank).
I tested in to see if changing it to Customs Exempt would make a difference.
It did not change. I created a new item with Customs Exempt, but it still shows as if we need to do Landed Cost.
Does anyone know what else I can check to see what is triggering this, and how to fix it?
Sincerely,
Chris Sorensen

Hi,
Please advice SAP version and PL. I don't think there is no automated process for posting landed cost document in standard SAP.
We have to choose landed cost window and GRPO document.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagarajan

Landed Cost Question

I understand the Landed Cost procedure but I am not sure how this cost is added to the A/P invoice
Example: I receive an Invoice from a supplier ABC for 1000 units at £1.50 cost each = £1500 but on the same invoice I have Other Costs of £300. So my Total Invoice to pay is £1800.
The problem I have is how to process this Invoice because
1. I raise an Item Order no 1946 for 1000x1.50= £1500
2. Goods are Received = Goods receipt procedure
3. Via Landed cost Procedure I add the £300 to costs and it shows me that the Cost per Item is now 1800/1000= £1.80 per item
4 Now, if I turn my Item Order 1946 into an A/P Invoice, this will miss the extra £300 that my supplier charged and I am not sure how to handle this situation.
Thanks for your help

I am obviously missing the point about the correct Landed Cost procedure

Thank you Jimmi and everybody.
I managed to work out the issue and my understanding is as follows:
The proper procedure for an A/p Invoice with landed costs should be:
1. Raise A/P invoice as normal (Order/Goods Receipt) and add the additional cost Using the Freight/Other Costs option. This will Credit the Creditor with the correct ammount and the main ISSUE is that the Freight/Other costs in the setup, should be set to the Landed Cost Suspense Account.
2. Go to Landed Cost Procedure and add Freight/Other costs as described in the manual - this procedure will automatically Credit the Landed Cost Suspense Account and increase the Stock value accordingly (as set up in the landed cost setup - by quantity or % etc)
there seems to be a lot of confusion about this procedure but I think that this is correct and there is no need for any adjustment journals.
thank you
Robert

How to reverse landed cost on open A/P Invoice

Dear Support
Please be so kind to assist wiht the following issue: I need to reverse landed cost from a open A/R Invoice # 72223
Purchase Order # 125025
Goods Receipt # 16426
Landed Cost 15332
A/P 72223
If i select the A/P invoice and copy to A/P Credit memo and preview the journal remarks first, the following error occurs
"Quantiy falls into a negative inventory"
My Question however are if I do proceed with this function, will this rectify the landed cost?
Please view the screen shots attached for investigation as well as the journal remarks on each document
Inventory Posting List:
The reason for not posting to the stock account is because the AR Invoice was been done before the landed cost has been processed:
At the time of landed cost there were no stock on hand, this has been the reason why the amount has been posted to the Price difference ledger account and not the stock account.
Your response will be much appreciated

Landed costs

Hi All,
This is a question on landed costs for imported materials. I have created a PO for an item having a value of INR 650, [ex.rate u2013 48/-] qty u201310. I have created landed costs after a/p invoice. I gave freight amt as 20 usd, customs value was 42.26. In fixed costs I had chosen u2018cash value before customsu2019 as 135.42 and u2018cash value after customsu2019 as 177.68. Here I donu2019t know the importance of u2018factoru2019 tab. Now if I see the landed cost document , it is showing u2018expected customs(FC)u2019 as 202.85, freight it has taken as 31.31, warehouse price as USD 2477 , I had entered u2018actual customsu2019 as Rs.2028.50. On this basis the total is getting changed. How the calculation is happening? Can anybody throw some light on this ?

Landed costs with several vendors

Hi All,
I read in the Help File documentation that it is possible to add several vendors to a landed costs posting. P.e. an invoice concerning the handlingcosts and another invoice concerning the transport of the same shipment.(the goods receipts are posted)
I tried to make this posting but failed ( i could not find the button groupage vendors)
I use SAP2005A SP01 PL36.
Who can help me?

Hello,
In addition to my previous reply and Frank reply, I have tried and it has been successfully to perform one landed cost for multiple vendors. I have made a mistaken.
You could do that by deleting first vendor and choose another vendor in the vendor field, if system ask "do you want to delete previously selected field ?", you must choose no. The result is string (*) sign in the vendor field if you manage one landed cost for multiple vendor. You also can import more than one good receipt PO by always select no if system asks similar question like above.

Error message [3569-3] when copying landed costs from another landed costs

I tried to correct already existing landed cost by creating another landed costs and copy from the original one.
When add the document I have got the Error message [3569-3] and I am not able to find where the problem is.
Please help.
Thanks

Dear Gordon,
sorry for the pictures in local language. This question has been created during my holiday and I had no chance to log in my customer environment so I modified the documentation from my original file.
Nevertheless I thing that I discovered the problem: The correction by using u201Ccopy from landed costsu201Dcannot be full (I mean not 1:1 with the original one).
I made reasonable changes then everything worked properly.
Thanks for your help.

A/P Invoice from landed Cost

How can I raise (covert) a Purchase Order that includes other LANDED COSTS into an A/P Invoice.
This question raises the issue of the additional costs added to a Purchase Order via the Landed Cost procedure which does not seem to add the Extra Cost to the Order?
thanks
Robert

Hi Cesar, Suda
The issue i am raising is the Total Charged to the Creditor which seems to be short by the amount added to the Landed Cost:
1 I raise an Item order no 1946 for 1000 items at £2 each = £ 2000
2. Goods arrive and the Supplier Invoice is for £2000+£250 (other charges) so I do GOODS RECEIVED procedure and Add this document - Journal entry is created for only the £2000
3. The Supplier Invoice has additional Charges of £ 250 so I go to Landed goods and add £250 Costs, this seems to increase the Cost Per Item from £2 to £2.25 because the Total Invoice is £2.250/1000
4. The main problem is that when I convert my Order 1946 to an A/P invoice it is only for £ 1000, so the the Creditors (Supplier Account) is only Credited with £1000
To make this procedure correct (accounting wise) the Landed Cost Document that for £1250 should be converted to an Invoice and not the Original Order for £1000. So what I would like to know, what is the correct procedure to Credit the Creditor with £1250 and Debit Costs of goods with £1250
thanks
Robert

Regarding FOB in landed cost

Dear Bibha,
FOB stands for Freight on Board. The amount is normally from the Bill of Landing. What is your question?

Landed Cost not showing in Inventory Audit

I have a query that goes against the OIPF/IPF1 tables to locate all Landed Cost transactions for a particular item. To test/verify the query, I ran the Inventory Audit report for the item. There are transactions returned from the query that do not show in the Inventory Audit report. Is there any reason or circumstance under which a Landed Cost Transaction would not show in the Inventory Audit report. I checked against all warehouses. This does not seem to be a singular event in that I have found random occurences of this for different items yet the majority of the time the Audit Report returns all entries.

Dear Cristian
Please check the Following things.
1)First check audit report for a Single Product.
2)Select all warehouse in Audit report.
3) Check you landed cost entry if your JV not pass in landed cost, so landed Cost not reflected in you audit report. (Auto JV not pass in SAP 2005 Version)
Please check and Let me Know.

To add cost in already posted Landed Cost document

Hi experts,
i have created an landed cost against an GRPO and added my other costs against the GRPO, and then i have made an A/P invoice against the document, now my GRPO has been closed and the payment to the party has been done.
Later to add some cost against the landed cost, i am trying to use the landed cost option under copy from button by selecting the same vendor. but the earlier landed cost entry is not available for selection.
Kindly guide me with this process.
Regards
Pradeeo

Hi,
It is not possile to change the posting period in a posted document, alternatively you can park the document form the external system and it can be posted in SAP after review by the user.
Thanks and regards

Landed costs can not get Goods receipt PO when Goods return made

Hi, everybody
I need to calculate landed costs and it seems that I can not use when I built a Goods return.
My procedure as follow ( ps: the same vendor number)
1. created a PO then Goods receipt PO (docNum says 1111) which included 20 quanties for item no AAAA.
2. created a Goods return which Copy from Goods receipt PO no: 1111, which included 5 quanties for item no AAAA.
3. next, I try to caculate my Landed costs. I open a new Landed costs and click the button "Goods Receipt PO", but I can not find any Goods receipt PO no: 1111.
What can I do to caculate my exactly landed costs & Goods receipt PO no: 1111 that included 15 quanties?
Thanks for your help

When you only Returned partial goods from your Receipt. The Receipt should still be open and you should be able to process the Landed cost. I am not sure why the GR is not showing in the landed costs window.
Please check if the GR is closed by an AP Invoice / by itself.
Otherwise, you will need to process AP Goods Return for the remaining 15 and process a New Goods Receipt for 15.

Reversing Landed Cost document with more than one vendor

Hi Experts,
Reversing Landed Cost document with more than one vendor:
My client can reverse a landed cost document with One Vendor, but cannot with multiple vendors. I have also tested this in 8.8 PL10. Here is a brief description:
Created Landed cost by selecting 2 vendors in the Vendor field.
After you picked one vendor, you go to the vendor code/name again then choose another vendor you
need, once you picked, the system will ask you whether you want to delete the previous data, then
you say no, after then you will see the vendor name became "different vendors" and code be "********"
(on the vendor tab: you will see two vendors)
To Reverse Landed Cost we do the following with Landed Cost documents that only have one vendor:
I can copy from the Landed Cost document (on the right-bottom corner) while creating new one with
zero amount to reverse, which is ok; but for multiple vendors, the list of vendors onlyshows one of
the vendors for Good Receipts & Landed Cost.
Cannot copy from a Landed Cost document wioth more than one vendor to reverse this Landed Cost.
To be albe to copy from a previously created Landed Cost document (with multiple vendors) as you
can with one vendor to reverse the transaction.
Can this functionality be added to future versions?

Take a look at business area and groupings in they payment program settings...
I am not sure what version you are on but the following link for 4.7 should provide some valuable information...
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/01/a9be64455711d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/01/a9be64455711d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Grouping Open Items and Individual Payments
Wherever possible, the payment program will always group items together for payment.
The payment program can only group together open items for payment if the open items in an account have the same:
1. Currency
2. Payment method in the item
3. Bank in the item
4. Contents of the grouping fields (if a grouping key is specified in the customer or vendor master record)
You can also pay open items from different company codes together, as well as customer and vendor line items.
Items in an account are not grouped together if you:
1. Make payments separately per business area. This procedure entails separate payments being created per business area.
2. Want to make individual payments
Items in which a payment method is specified are not grouped with items in which no payment method is specified.
You define the required grouping key in the IMG for Financial Accounting under Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Business Transactions -> Outgoing Payments -> Automatic Outgoing Payments -> Payment Method/Bank Selection for Payment Program -> Define Payment Groupings.
In our system, if the business area is the same, there will be one ZP document with one line with a posting key of 25. Otherwise there will be many individual 25 posting key lines with.

Landed Cost error based Goods receipt note

I have the following scenario at a client trying to post landed cost in US dollar against a GRN also in US dollar for a supplier set to US$
The following message displays trying to post the landed cost: Transaction currency differs from BP or account currency:
1) The supplier has been used numerous times before and is in UD$ currency
2) The General ledger clearing accounts is also set to All currencies
3) We also deleted all the lines on the landed cost document and with only one line on the document the message still appeared.
Some of the items has been sold in the meantime and part of the offset posting will be posted to Cost of sales. The Cost of sales accounts is set to South African Rand. I thought that will be a problem and I have set them to various currencies and still could not post the landed cost document in US$
I also upgraded from PL49 to SP1 PL05 and still the issue prevails.
Any assistance will be much appreciated.
