Settling Freight Costs

Gurus u2013 see below regarding SAP shipment cost document (SCD) and the associated Service PO. Any thoughts on how to correct this?
CASE:
u2022     Create SCD with reference to shipment number. This SCD creates a Service purchase order and a Service Entry sheet automatically.
u2022     The SCD has several conditions types to store different types of costs: Freight, fuel, accessorial, package, etc.
u2022     The purchase order has only one value, instead the several values in the SCD. Want to replicate all condition types from the SCD to the PO.
Example:
SCD Condition Types:
u2022     Freight           $80
u2022     Fuel           $15
u2022     Accessorial     $5
u2022     Total          $100 USD
Automatic Service PO conditions:
u2022     Price(Limit)          $100
Would like to have the same breakdown on cost in both documents. Any thoughts/experience on how to do this in SAP?

HI,
once it is secondary cost you cannot bring it back to primary cost.

Freight cost to be copied from Sales order

Hi
I settling freight cost via third party PO .
In an SO i have setup the freight as service line items , so a Pr will be created for these items subsequently a PO will be created for each line item .
In this PO i need to capture the freight price from the sales order . in other words i want a specific price to flow from SO directly to PO( the price in SO can be manually entered or condition based ).
i tried using a calculation routine for this . I was trying to pass the SO no to the pricing structure but on adding KDAUF and KDPOS to structure KOMP the fields have no value in it.
Can you please help me in passing the sales order no and item no to the structure .
Thanks

Hi ,
I am afraid its a bit complicated ... I have 4 costs involved with a sale of a stock item plant to port freight , sea freight ....etc . All these 4 freights can have different vendors .
the doc flow is like this
SO -> PO -GR (Accrual ) - IV ( Miro ) On miro the actual costs a capture till GR i am using a planned costs
The planned costs are entered in the SO ( generally via contion record) this planned cost should flow into the PO
the conditions you mentioned are SD conditions . I am not looking for a manual . I have to automate the PO creation and possible GR on Goods issue of the actual stock item

Post freight cost to a different a GL account during 411-K for consignment PO Process

We are planning to implement PO consignment for one of the client.
The scenario is, client pays the freight cost to the supplier in advance upon receipt of consignment stock .When consignment stock is moved to own stock (411k), during the movement of the stock we need to create two accounting entries one for the material cost and the other for freight cost such that the freight can be adjusted with advance paid freight cost. Freight cost can be settled manually with another PO but the requirement is moving average price of the material should include the cost of material and freight cost .
For an example if the material cost is $100(PB00) and freight cost is $10(FAR1 - 10%), during 411k it should create two entries one for material cost($100) and the other for freight cost($10) which can be adjusted manually.
We tried by adding freight condition (FRA1) in consignment info record along with PB00 –Gross price and in this case during 411k it is summing both the prices($110) and posting to one GL account and the same settles during MRKO but what we are looking for is how we can split this into $100 and $10 .
I know standard SAP does not support this this during 411k.
I want to know if there is any User exit, pricing procedure, routines, etc... Or any other way that can be used to achieve this requirement. Appreciate more detailed answer

Hi,
   As you know, currently the delivery cost are not supported in consignment and pipeline settlement. The system design is explained in the note: 208555 - MB11 Delivery costs for pipeline and consignment.
   If you want delivery cost in consignment, you have to go for development. There should be additional entry for delivery costs in RKWA table. I am not sure about the feasibility, but still would like to share the below points:
   For creating additional entry in the accounting document while doing MB1B / MB11, you may check the BADI AC_DOCUMENT.
   You may refer the note: 165647 - Documentation: Enhancement RMVKON00 (MM-IV) which explains some enhancements related to consignment settlement.

Freight cost in a purchase order when generating automatic freight cost

Hi Experts,
when i generate automaticly a Purchase Order whith a freight cost, in the PO it keeps the first freight in the Item Overview.
When it generate more freight cost in the same PO, the first Freight Cost stay in the Item Overview, and the freight cost is increasing in the Item : PO History. right.
Is it possible to remove the first entry from the Item Overview or put the total of the freight cost who are incresing in the PO??
Thanks in advance.
Dom.

Hi dev,
We did something similar last week. To charge the freight cost to the receiving party we did a manual service entry sheet for that.
We created a separate Po with Transport vendor and the receiving plant and account type is Z shipment costing and service item description as intercompany freight.
You will specify the limit of the amount here, and specify the G/L account here. Now create the service entry sheet withthe freight amount and settle.
I think you can follow the similar thing with additional lines for your requirement for other charges.
Since we want let the receiving plant pay the freight we didn't create the shipment cost document of LE-TRA.
Let see if any other suggestions comes.

Loading freight cost to inventory at the time of GR

Dear All
When i am not using LE then i do have process where i will be having a condition type of freight at STO type , I shall do delivery(VL10D) against that PO number, PGI and at the time of GR at receiving plant that freight will get uploaded to material which is having price control " V ". Now as I am using LE my freight will be calculated at VI01(freight cost calculation) , there will not be any condition type of freight at PO level . Now I want that(VI01) freight to get uploaded on material .That means some how my VI01 document will be linked to PO and I guess this is possible by doing configuration at " Shipment Cost Item Categories " .Please provide me solution if this can be done or give me any other alternate . I am running late so please do help me.

The issue is resoleved.
We can load freight cost using LE on inventory in inbound shipment as well as in STO.
Config steps are :
1. Settlement rel. = A relevant for settlement (delivery costs) in T_56
2. In pricing schema of PO : condition catagory shud be " delivery relevent "
3. check "accurals" check box and "copy shipment cost" check in condition type .
4. Make condition type manual at PO level .Important to note the value of this condition type at the time of PO creation should be blank.
5. After shipment cost calculation check the shipment status .it shud b " C ".
6. At MIGO check ur accounting doc

MOV 68A and 68E (intra company) duplicate freight cost

Hello,
We are currently in version 702 with EP5.0. We activate BF LOG_MM_SIT and we are using scenario N6 for intra company process and N3 for inter.
Process: We add a freight cost in the Intra PO header to be charged to a third party (intra company process). When we process the GI for VL02N the system post the movement type 68A. In this moment the system considers already the freight costs (incorrectly).
Then when I perform VLPOD without any difference, the system post the movement 68E and again consider the freight cost. So we have twice the additional price condition.
Do you have any idea on how we can solve this issue?
Didn't find any OSS Note.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Hi Atif,
as of SAP TM 9.0 there is a means to enter the inbound freight costs from TM into ERP material valuation via the agency billing document.
The process is documented here:

Division and Account determination in Freight Costs

Hey Friends!
How the system does to determine the division and account in Freight Costs?
Thanks!

Hi,
1)In config you maintain account assignment category ...spro->log. execution->transportation->shipment cost->settlement->maintain account assignmnet category.
2) Here you need to give account modification for an account assignment category
3) Maintain that account modification in GBB transaction key in OBYC transaction.
4) So the GL account gets detrmined according to the valuation class of the material.
5) If business area is active in ur system then u need to link valuation area with business area and division in Enterprise structure->Assignment->logistics general-> Assign business area to valuation area/division.
So the system will determine the business area.

Settling delivery costs via ERS

Hi Gurus,
MRRL transaction has a check box stating "Settle Goods Item + Planned Delivery Costs". Even if it is checked, I am finding ERS invoices are NOT being generated for freight costs. For eg, the ERS PO has FRB1 pricing condition. GR of both the material and freight pricing condition is performed. After that , MRRL T.code is executed with "Settle Goods Item + Planned Delivery costs" checked. But, it is found that ERS material invoice is generated, but NOT the freight one. Why "Planned delivery costs" is mentioned then in MRRL T.code?
Thanks,
Kumar

First of all I would like you to check if the all involved vendors have activated automatic settlement of planned delivery cost in
customizing (Table T169DC). The entries in EKRSDC are only create if this this setting is set ON. The path is: SPRO -> Material
Management -> Logistic Invoice Verification -> Evaluated Receipt Settl. -> Specify Automatic Settlement of Planned Delivery Costs.
Hope this helps !
Cheers !

Loading freight cost on inventory

Dear All
I am implementing LE .Our client want freight charges to get uploaded on inventory during STO. Will any-one please help me to get rid of this problem , I want urgent solution for this .
Best Regards
Parveen Kumar Thakur

Hi,
Apology, I am not clear what do you require from your reply message about those items you have listed. Did you want to understand what they are or did you want to know what configuration settings to maintain for those? Those settings are dependent on your requirements.
1) Cost Distribution - this settings explains the different method possible for apportionment of the cost during settlement (Transfer to CO) - which you can select from Shipment Cost Item, Delivery or Delivery Items.
2) Acct. Assignment Cat. - It allows you to settle the cost to various accounts - used in account determination in tcode OBYC (GBB - > VBR). Where those are setup, the desired account is determined in the shipment cost document.
3) Origin of CO - This is used to determine where the origin of the CO object should be determined from. The selection provides you various sequences, which you can possibly use. It is possible directly through a G/L Account, through the sequence of Delivery, then if not found, it will determine from Order and finally through the sequence of Delivery, Order and G/L Account.
4) Relevant for settlement - In this case, depending on your requirement you can consider the option of settling through a G/L account or through the delivery costs method (which is detailed in "a" and "b" below). Otherwise, the settings commonly used is "X".
And, I am not sure what is your real intention here, but definitely you can generate PO to forwarding agent simultaneously, and then perform MIRO against the forwarding agent/shipment cost document/PO. It depends on your requirement, and in some instances, a company can have an agreement with the customer or vendor that the transportation cost is to be borne by them along with the materials procured or sold.
Hence, there are three possible methods the shipment cost can be handled:
a) The cost is to be included in the PO for the material (which I have just explained above)
b) The cost is to be included in the Billing document for the customer (in the case of Sales scenario)
c) The cost is to be handled separately in a shipment cost document --> Freight PO --> Payment to Forwarding Agent (which is the common practice by many).
Hope the above helps.
Thanks.

Freight costs in Pricing procedure and Shipment costs

What is the difference between freight costs in pricing procedure for a sales document and shipment costs in shipment documents. Arent they meant for the same thing. Why do we have to create them separately.

hello, friend.
freight charges in the sales pricing procedure may be represented by condition type KF00 (standard). this condition type is a surcharge to your customer, meaning there is an inflow into your company. this surcharge may be manually entered (if configuration allows this) in the condition tabs of your sales order or this could automatically be entered if the appropriate condition records (via VK11 or VK31) have been created.
the shipment costs in shipment documents is what your company is billed or quoted by your forwarder, shipper or other transport related agent. the shipment cost data will be used by the system to calculate and settle shipment costs. when you have freight condition records (via TK11), purchase-vendor records and if all route/connection point/etc. settings correct, all shipment cost data will be determined when you do shipment cost document creation. you may also manually enter cost items, depending on the configuration.
hope this helped. is so, will appreciate reward.
regards.

Free goods but want to freight cost updation upon GR

Hi,
Scenario:
I have a PO with 20 line items and header freight cost.
There are few more items in PO which are ticked as free goods.
There is a stock of those materials with certain MAP.
Freight condition has been configured as vendor GR so that it gets loaded on materials upon GR.
Requirement is that
Upon GR of this PO,MAPshould get updated with the freight cost for those materials also which have been marked as free goods.
How this can be achieved ?
Regards,
manOO

Hi Rang,
Thanks for the feedback.However service PO is out of scope as client do not want to go for servicees.
I could not understand your suggestion
<u>you give PO to frieght vendor for freight value & in remarks you mention reciving as FREE GOODS from vendor xxxxx & do GR load cost to material & pay to freight vendor. (this is not advisible, but one solution for your problem).</u>
I have to receive one material via purchase order as a free item but I need to pay vendor for the freight charges that will be incurred to ship this item along with all the other items in the same PO.
Can you please explain me further as what you mean to say in your post.
I should be able to load these freight cost on all the materials in PO including the material with 'free' indiactor.
In short upon GR MAP should affect with freight cost as there will not be value addition of the material since received as free.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance

Purchase Order's Freight cost

Dear All,
I'm using SAP B1 2007B SL 0 PL 15. I have problems with the Freight cost on the distribution rule. It will not store the store or update the distribution rule code in PO, GR & Invoice. I have to manually tag the distribution rule code in the journal entry after the Invoices are posted. Does anyone face this problem or know how to solve this?

Freight Cost while Goods Receipt in STO

Dear Experts,
In SAP standard STO process, freight cost calculated while Material issued against STO ( 351/641 movement).
Is there any way possible to calculate the freight at the time of goods receipt instead of at the time of Goods Issue..
Thanks in Advance.

Why do you want it at the time of GR?
Anyways, you can not see or change the freight amount in MIGO. And I don't think there is any other way to post the freight amount other than 351/641 goods issue.

Reducing the Freight cost on material value for undelivered material

Hi Experts,
Summary : The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material. The freight transport is allowed an under tolearance of 0.5% on the material to be supplied. If the delivered material quantity breaches the 0.5% under tolerance then amount at 1.5 times the cost of material for the shortage is to be deducted from the transporter. A dummy GR will have to be prepared for the undelivered quantity for which we do not want the freight cost to be loaded. The details scenario is mentioned below :-
We have to make a Purchase Order with material code say ABC for procured of some material. Suppose we make a Purchase Order for 100 nos. at a Unit Price of Say Rs. 10/- for Material Code ABC on say Vendor M/s XYZ. A freight condition is maintained in the Conditions Tab and suppose the Freight is Rs. 10 per unit of the material.
While preparing the Goods Receipt through MIGO, in the Freight Tab we select say freight vendor say M/s PQR against the freight condition and post the goods receipt.
While doing Invoice Processing in MIRO, when we enter the combination of Purchase Order and Planned Delivery Cost the system will populate the vendor codes of both the supplier of material and the transporter. On selecting the transporter the freight amount will populate against which the invoice of the tranporter can be processed.
In the Vendor Master of M/s XYZ GR-Based Invoice Verification is activated.
The vendor is allowed an under tolerance of 0.5% (i.e. the vendor should deliver at least 99.50 nos. of the Purchase Order). If the vendor delivers 99.50 or more then there will be no deduction in the freight charges.
But suppose the vendor delivers only 99.4 nos. of the quantity. Then we will prepare the GRIR for 99.4 nos.only. But while processing the MIRO we need to deduct 1.5 times the value of the material from the freight amount for the shortshipped quantity, i.e.
0.1 no (99.5 u2013 99.4) X Rs. 10/- * 1.5 = Rs. 1.5 are to be deducted from the final payment from the freight amount of the transporter.
The material supplier will have to be paid in full 100 nos. of quantity and will raise an invoice for 100 nos. A dummy GRIR for the 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will have to be prepared for processing the invoice for the 100 nos. of the material supplier and a dummy issue for 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will be prepared to remove them from the system.
Hence the freight cost for this 0.6 nos. of undelivered material will also go into the cost of the material and increase the MAP by that amount. Also the goods issue Cost will also have the effect of the freight cost.
We do not want to load the freight cost for the undelivered material in the value of the material.
Can any one please suggest a solution for the same.
Thanks in advance.
AJ.

Hi
A PO Will be raised for full quantity of material say 100 nos.
The material supplier vendor needs to be paid for full quantity of material.
A freight vendor is maintained at the time of GR for material against the freight condition maintained in the Po.
The freight vendor facilitates the delivery of the material from the vendor to the purchaser for which he is given an under tolerance limit of 0.5%. Any delivery below this tolerance limit, freight amount to the effect of 1.5 times the per unit rate of material x short fall below 0.5% tolerance will be deducted from the freight amount.
A dummy grir will have to be prepared for the short delivered quantity for processing the invoice for the full quantity of the purchase order, as the vendor is going to raise the invoice for full purchase order quantity. The client does not want to load the freight cost of the undelivered quantity on the material value as it will wrongly show the MAP of the material. This shortshipped material will be issued to remove it from the system and the stock will remain for the delivered quantity only. The vendor is subject to gr based invoice verification.
Please suggest a solution.
Thanks in advance.
AJ
