Shipment cost issue

Dear all,
I want to do Stock transfer process between 2 company codes, and Transpotartion Planning Point is Receving CCode.
So, when i create Shipment cost, there is an error:
Company codes are different: Delievery 2620/0080000228 shipment 6620/0000001188
Message no. VY012
Diagnosis
A delivery is assigned to a different company code than the shipment to be calculated.
This is not allowed if the costs are to be distributed at the level of delivery or delivery item.
System Response
Account assignment and settlement is not possible for this shipment cost item.
Procedure
If you want to carry out settlement for this shipment, then the costs can only be carried out at the shipment cost item level.
Delete the shipment cost item.
Create a new shipment cost item for this shipment or shipment stage with another shipment cost item category.
Im Customizing, cost apportionment 'A' should be entered for this category.
Ofcouse i know the problem.
In the Configuration for Item Category - Settlement, i set:
Cost dist.: C Delivery item, ... Origin CO: C Sequence: Delivery, order, G/L account
If i change to value A - Shipment cost item, it'll be OK. But in other client, value C is OK.
Pls tell me what is wrong?
Thanks alot,
Quanglv

Hi Quang,
The company check is standard in the shipment costing in SAP.
However, if cross-company settlement for shipment costing is required, then you would need to look into the following SAP Note:
[SAP Note 963452|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=963452]
[SAP Note 699343|https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=699343]
The error message resulting from the check would need to be surpressed, and standard system modification would be required to achieve cross-company shipment costing.
Please be informed that this modification would not be supported by SAP. You may want to check with ThanhCT on this.
Hope the above helps.
Thanks.

Issue is of Assignment Cost Accounting in Shipment Cost Document.

Issue is of Assignment Cost Accounting in Shipment Cost Document.
We are trying and unable to load the freight cost incurred on
transporting the material on its cost itself along with all the
required FI Entry.
For Eaxample :
We are moving moving Goods of 100 $ in value from Plant to Depot.
Trasnportation cost in this activity is 20$.
We want to add this 20 $ at material cost i.e. material valued at Plant
is of 100 $ and same material valued at Depot should be 120$ Instead of
just 100 $.
Its an Urgent Issue and we seek your assistance in resolving it.

Issue in creating Invoice when route is not relevant for shipment cost.

Dear All,
We are facing a problem while creating an Invoice. The route used in shipment in not relevant for shipment costing. Shipment type is relevant for costing. So in normal scenario if I don't remove the tick mark from "Shipment cost relanace" at shipment type and proceed with Invoicing I get error as " SHipment costing is not complete", which is correct. The scenario works well if item/s in delivery are not batch split.
But, if items in delivery are batch split and "shipment cost relevance" check is not removed from shipment type then, only batch split items get copied in invoice. Header item is deleted and invoice gets saved, which should not happen.I don't get error in this scenario.
How should I make the error in invocie work in case of batch split items also? Could anyone please let me know?
Thanks!

Dear Manmeet Mohan K,
Can you please check the copy controls in between delivery document to invoice(VTFL)
Thanks&Regards

Shipment cost based on Value

I need your valuable suggestion on how to create the Value based shipment cost.
Our Process:
Create POS - Create Inbound delivery - Create Shipment - Create Shipment cost - Post Inbound Delivery.
So while posting the inbound delivery, the freight cost will post against the material. The invoice will be paid for the Vendor for the quantity purchased and freight charge will be paid for the freight Vendor(s).
We are adding the Vendor in the Shipment and adding the cost against the Vendor in the Shipment Cost.
Everything is working fine, but the shipment cost posting against the material was happening based on the delivery weight / quantity.
The reason for this asking the question is - we are receiving high value items and low value items with the same weight.
Question 1: Is it possible to have the shipment cost being split, calculated and posted against the material based on the PO Item received Value or PO Price
Quesion 2: Is it possible to post the shipment cost at a later date? Currently, the shipment cost posts when the inbound delivery is received (I know the material value will be posted when there is stock changes or price changes). But our issue is the invoice for the shipment cost will be received after a couple of days from the goods receipt. Right now we are entering couple of costs through assumption, then while postig the invoice, we adjust that value.
Note: I cannot enter the condition directly in the PO, as the same PO item will be partially received by multiple inbound deliveries

Freight carriers charges weight on the basis of Weight / volume of the items.SAP shipment works on the same principle.
Cost of transporting ton of Potataoes is same as transporting 10 ton of aluminium between two known destinations.
Hence it is illogical to distributes cost on the basis of item value. However if still you want to distribute the same on value basis then maintain freight condition(%) in PO as per your prefined logic of distribution of freight cost.
It is well known fact that cost of freight % is always higher in Low value items & iis low in case of High value items.

Error in account determination while creating shipment cost document in SD

Dear all,
I have come across a case where an error has come in determining account while creating shipment cost document. This is happening only in the case of a particular shipment cost type. The Status of " Calculated" is C, the status of " Assigned" is " B" and the status of "Transferred" is A.
Can any one throw any light as to why it is happening like this?
Thanks and best regards

Shipment Cost - ERS (Evaluated receipt settlement)

Hi,
We are using Shipment cost documents to calculate the customer freight.
In shipment cost document, we need to transfer the amount to accounting.
In that case system will create PO automatically. This is all good.
Now, We need to activate ERS for all the vendors, in that case when we transfer the shipment costs to accounting, system is asking to enter Tax code.
We are not using Tax determination at all in shipment cost document.
Can't we use ERS without Tax code?
Where does this Tax code come from into shipment costing document? is it through Tax determination condition technique?
is there any way we can deactivate Tax code?
Please suggest.
Thanks.

Hi Sandra,
For such issues there is a pro-active approach by way of tolerances in MM-LIV. If your tolerances are configured properly, the system won't go so far as posting an invoice in ERS. It would show you a red flag by raising an exception.
ERS as a functionality entirely depends on the PO prices. There is no check as in the conventional LIV. Thus, I am afraid you won't have an audit trail straightforward.

Vishal.

Error while saving VI02 Shipment Cost

Hi,
We are testing here transportation module in new company code.
While saving VI03 Shipment cost, system is not creating Purchase order, as item catagory D-Service.
It is giving error that, Document type NB is not defined for Starnd PO.
But we have created new PO document type FR01 instead of NB.
Is there any posibility to assign PO Document type FR01 for shipment cost?
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks,
Samir Bhatt

Hello Samir,
the purchase order is generated with report RV54POCR, which is called as soon as no suitable purchase order is available and the item category is set for po generation.
Which document type is used for the purchase order generation depends on default po type assigned to the transactions ME21N/ME21. Please check the following code of the generation report:
Get Default PO type
CALL FOR TCODE ME21N FIRST, IF NOT FOUND, CALL FOR ME21.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM t160 WHERE tcode EQ 'ME21N'.
IF NOT sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM t160 WHERE tcode EQ 'ME21'.
ENDIF.
Depending on your business needs you are able to assign a different type or to use the corresponding user exit which is called short after the above coding.
I hope I was able to help you with this issue!

Tom

LE-TRA Shipment costs as inbound delivery costs, goods receipt

Hello gurus:
We are facing the following scenario, regarding inbound transportation.
We plan our shipment document and shipment costs, and they feature several items. Each of those items represent a shipping service, which in certain cases be taken on different countries by the same service agent.
That is, we have a service X on country A, with tax indicator 1, and service Y on country B, with tax indicator 2.
Both services would need to be transferred as delivery costs to the purchase order.
According to note 427944, shipment cost value is cumulated by service agent., so that it looks impossible to get the values broken up to the purchase order, which would be the first step to subsequently get the right tax indicators for each item of the shipment.
Even using different condition types on the shipment cost document, system cumulates by service agent and transfers to the first condition found on the purchase order schema.
Has any of you faced similar issue? Any workaround possible?.
Thanks in advance for your valuable help.
David Ramos.
PORCELANOSA MM.
This is the section of note 427944 that indicates the treatment of the shipment costs in the purchase order,
Transfer the shipment costs into the condition types of the purchase order:
The shipment cost value (without tax amounts) is cumulated for all relevant shipment cost documents
for each service agent and transferred to a corresponding condition type of the purchase order item.
Before cumulation, the amounts are first converted into the purchase order currency.
1. A transfer of the values for each condition type (similar to the transfer from a shipment
cost document to the SD billing document) is not supported.
2. If different service agents exist in the shipment cost documents, a corresponding number of
condition lines (with value 0) must be specified in the purchase order item. These can always
belong to the same condition type (in schema 'Manual') or also to different condition types (not
'Manual'):
a) Manual condition lines: If the condition type in the schema of the purchase order is
marked as 'manual', the condition type must be created (with value 0) in the purchase order
item before the goods receipt. If delivery costs are expected from different service agents,
several non-valuated entries must be generated for this condition type. If more condition
lines exist than required, these are then no longer taken into account. If condition lines
are missing, the last service agents are not settled.
- Advantage: You only have to define one condition type for the delivery costs.
- Disadvantage: Each purchase order must be processed manually before the goods receipt.
b) Automatic condition lines: If the condition lines are to be generated automatically for
the delivery costs (the condition type is not flagged as 'Manual' in the schema), the schema
must have enough condition types to settle several service agents. If more condition lines
exist than required, these are then no longer taken into account. If condition lines are
missing, the last service agents are not settled.
- Advantage: The goods receipt can be carried out without manual preparation beforehand in
the purchase order.
- Disadvantage: You must define identical condition types with different names.

Hi,
If you refereed the OSS Note 427944 correctly it explains how the shipment cost can be transferred to delivery cost based on some pre-requisite.
Like the value for PO should be >0
Like the service agent is involved during shipment liability, then there should be cumulative transfer for each value which will update based on shipment cost if PO value is "0".
The shipment cost will be delivered to all delivery items based on weight.
If you want to enhance this then you need to use the enhancement V54KSFRC to update the values as per your requirement.

Error while creating shipment cost

Good morning,
I'm trying the solve an issue when we create a shipment cost.
I get the following error when trying to transfer the cost "No purchase order item was generated for shipment cost item" / "in case of evaluated receipt setlement, please enter a taks code."
We are working with automatic creation of PO but for one supplier it is not working. I already compared master data of other suppliers but don't see the issue.
What can be the issue? At what transaction the Po is generated?
Thanks for feedback

Hi,
   The tax code is mandatory because of the ERS indicator in vendor master. You can find the ERS indicator in MK02 - Purchasing data.
   If the ERS is flagged in vendor master, you need to maintain the tax code in the PO. Since the PO is created from SCD, you can maintain the condition record for input tax condition type in VT11 along with the tax code as shown below:
   Maintain the same and test the scenario again. Revert back if its not solved.

the problem is the shipment document get created on 30.11.2010 but the shipment cost document get created on 1.12.2010
pleas advice.

Hi,
Please check the batch job processing log.
As per my understanding, business requires to generate the Shipment & Shipment cost documents immediatley.
However there is some time between the documents creation time. I dont see any issue in the data or problem in the delivery docs Because system will not generate the shipment docs after 1 or 2 days if there is an issue with the data . There must be problem in the Batch Job.
Analyse the batch jobs and timing of the job process.
Let us know your feedback...

Routine not getting called during Batch job posting of Shipment costs

Hi,
We have a routine created and attached to the condition type in the condition base type of shipment cost procedure.When the shipment cost is created by running a batch job (VI06) , the value posted is the initial value determined withourt routine.
The routine is getting activated only when we go in u201CCondition tabu201D in shipment cost.
Because of this, correct values are getting calculated only when we click on u201Ccondition tabu201D,& getting wrong value in initial screen, which is not possible in batch job.
Need your views / suggestions to fix this issue.We need to use batch job and enable rouitne before batch job posts the cost to the Service PO.
Thanks in advance.

Now i want to analyse the job log for thosse failures. For this i want to know the batch job names which i am unaware of. In SM37 i am unable to trace in a generic way.
I know that we can filter batch jobs using ABAP Prog. My question is that which programs have to be used here. are these RV56TRGN for shipment docs and RV56TRSL fir shipment cost docs?? Plz help as the issue needs serious attention ffom my side. also suggest how further i have to rectify this issue.

Hello,
The ABAP programs you have mentioned are correct and you can enter these in SM37 to check the job names, status etc.
RV56TRGN - creating shipment docs
RV56TRSL - Shipment costs
Check the spool for messages which will have the error docs.

Shipment Costing comprising of 2 deliveries from 2 company codes

We have a scenario whereby we combine 2 deliveries from 2 different company codes into 1 marine shipment. The issue we face is that when we generate the shipment costing document for the freight amount, 1 single item is generated and this is tied to the company code depicted in the original shipment.
The question which I would like to ask is what it takes to create 2 items in the shipment costing document which allow us to update the account assignment for the 2 different company codes. Thanks.

hello, friend.
try going to T_56, and choose an entry in Cost Distribution for the item category (for shipment cost docukment). it is possible that the setting in your system is "A". you also have to coordinate with your FICO consultant if CO-PA is active. however, i do not see any settings that might distribute the cost on the basis of Company Code, only on the bases of: 1) the entire shipment, 2) deliveries and 3) delivery items.
please post again if this does not work for you.
regards.

Shipment Cost Estimation Report

Hi Experts,
There is an existing report which is very helpful regarding most transportation details. You can pull information at the delivery or item level of all types of shipments in one place. We use this to review what shipments we need to process to cost documents and transport POs.
Another report shows all of the information except information on what the actual cost calculations have been. A report is available which details the cost calculations but this report is not available until after the cost document has been created which is too late to assist in the shipment costing process. This T code is VI12 and it shows each cost type separated out based on the calculated rate.
Using T code VT02N from the shipment cost estimation button, this is the information we need to merge it in the existing report.
Please can anyone advise on this situation how to do this enhancement.
Do we need any other information from the client for this issue.
Thanks for your help.
With Regards,
Ruby.

Hello,
Would VI11 answer your question, there are also additional fields in the ALV catalogue that can be added to the layout?
