Migo/miro

Question

Dear All,
             i purchase goods from a vendor, he hires the transport (truck) and sends goods  to us.
at the time of MIGO, i have 2 delivery notes- one from the vendor who has supplied the goods and the other from the freight carrier.
i want to capture both against each other in MIGO how this can be achieved?
the reason is that during MIRO, i can select individual delivery note and clear there invoice separately.
as the freight payment is made immediately at the time of goods receipt and purchase department is sitting at other location, the purchase department doesnot know which truck on which goods have come belong to which purchase order.
thanks and regards

Hi Kavita,
This is an issue faced by all when the transporter is not known in advance and the amount has to be paid to the transporter on receipt of material.
At PO level a freight condition is given with the freight vendor ( if known ). However through " condition SPRO "  you can allow person making GR to define the transport vendor ( different than PO ( the transporter must have a vcode though). ( The value though cannot be entered at the GR Level.) This books the freight value on the inventory.
The actual payment can then be done against the delivery cost with MIRO. Since value cannot be entered at the time of GR, there will be a difference between system proposed value and the actual freight value during GR. This will get loaded on inventory ( incase of MAP) or to diff account ( in case of std. price and depending on the customising setting.
Crux is, at best you can give the control of transport vendor selection to person making GR but not value.
I hope this helps.
