Question

Hi,
We are in to IT distribution business; in our nature of business we donu2019t know shipment cost at Purchase Order, we can have various options
As per Our business requirement we want to take the MAP cost as basis of our Sales Price considering very low profit margin, so  for every shipment( partial GR) the freight cost  are not on proportionate basis, it will vary widely depending on the facts like
A.     Mode of transport(Air / Ship /Road )
B.     Size of Truck load/ Ship Container
C.     Number of Partial Shipment
D.     Shipment for Multiple Purchase order.
Further we want the freight cost  to be automated based on above variations.
Problem:
We need to incorporate both the partial delivery cost (Elucidated below) at Goods receipt point for each and every shipment (Partial Delivery).
We want automated price component should flow to Good receipt on partial delivery basis considering both components mentioned below.
For understanding kindly refer to the below mentioned example.
Case 1:
We placed one Purchase Order Qty 1000 to Vendor HP on Inco term Ex Works Taiwan,
This Quantity of Material will be shipped partially to Our Plant at Dubai; We will out sourced Freight forwarder for picking the material from HP factory to Dubai Sea Port
We have different components as below
Fixed      $  115.00      Per Bill of Lading / Shipment
Variable 1 and/or      $  235.00      Per 30 CBM / 20" FT Container
Variable 2 and/or      $  200.00      Per 60 CBM / 40" FT Container
Variable 3      $  200.00      Per 70 CBM / 40" FT HC Container
Again the Shipment will be transferred from Sea Port to Our Plant through road, this may be a
Variable     From 1 to 8 CBM --> $ 19     3 Tonn
     More than 8 CBM --> 19 CBM --> $38     7 Tonn
     More than 19 CBM --> 43 CBM --> $52     40" Trailer

Hi,
Quick answer will be
As you do not know delivery cost at the time of PO creation , you can post delivery cost in MIRO with a option to a particular G/L account & need to active in following path:
SPRO > Materials Management > Logistics Invoice Verification > Incoming Invoice > Activate Direct Posting to G/L Accounts and Material Accounts > Here Activate "Dir.posting to G/L acct = active" and save. 
OR
Try for rebate / subsequent settlement.
