Shipment costs calulation

I am looking to get the shipment cost calculation working for a delivery with multiple items. Currently it only assign the costs to one of the items instead of calculate on basis of the weight and assign the costs to all items.

Hi,
Calcualtion type B is OK.
As far as I understood, the condition is a price per shipment and it is desired to distribute the condition to the sub-items. Are the fields in the access sequence which populate the condition related to the delivery/shipment header or to the item? Maybe you can provide an example Or is it manual? And what is the Calculation type of the condition?
Generally I think it is possible to redistribute the condition value, this can can be done using alternative condition base value formula in the pricing procedure. But either the same condition type or another condition type needs to be triggered for all sub-items to capture the distributed values.

Control of Incoterms in creation of Shipment Costs

Dear All,
We calculate shipment costs (Through Transportation module in SD-Freight payment-Outwards) on calculation base A (Delivery) or B
(Delivery item) and do not want to calculate deliveries that have certain
Incoterms (for example, TOP-To Pay, where Customer makes payment to Transporter).
By default, the system always creates a subitem in the shipment cost
document for the corresponding calculation base for every delivery item or for every delivery involved.
We want to have Control over certain Incoterms where we don't pay to the customers. We want to restrict the users not to calculate Shipment Costs in TOP-To pay cases. Kindly help if any Userexits available for this scenario to handle.

Hi,
I think we have a similar requirement. For FCA transports is the transport cost zero. We have created a seperate condition in the cost procedure as a condition class A ( discount or surcharge ) in T_06. This has an access sequence assigned which uses a 9xx condition table (T_03) with fields Service agent f.stage ( TDLNR ) and
Incoterms ( INCO1 ). This enables us to maintain condition records in TK12. So FCA is maintained with 100 % deduction and thus no costs.

How to update sales order number (KAUFN) characteristic in the profitability segment of the PA document created at the time of service entry sheet confirmation, as a result of shipment cost document

Hi,
We have a scenario wherein we create shipment cost documents against delivery. As a result of shipments fully transferred, a PO for freight vendor is automatically created and a service entry sheet confirmation happens. As a result of service entry sheet confirmation, we have Financial accounting, Controlling and profitability analysis documents created. We have a requirement wherein we need to have the characteristic “sales order number (KAUFN)” populated in the profitability analysis document created as a result of service entry sheet confirmation.
Could someone please advice how could this be attained in COPA. Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi Ajay,
Thank you for the quick update.
The document is updated to COPA through OKB9 settings. The profitability segment is updated with fields like customer, product, company code, plant, sales area data, profit center, etc; however the sales order number is missing.
Could you please elaborate further how could FI substitution be implemented to call for the FM COPA_PROFITABILITY_SEGMENT through user exit? Are you recommending the substitution through GGB1? What could be the possible validation to call for the user exit to be implemented?

Sandeep Kulkarni

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.

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)

Error in account determination while creating shipment cost document in SD

Can any one throw any light as to why it is happening like this?
Thanks and best regards

Any UserExit while Posting Shipment cost?

Dear All,
SD transportation/shipment cost integration with MM-Account Payable.
Process:
1. VA01 - create sales order
2. VL01n - create Delivery
3. VL02n - PGI
4. VT01n - create Shipment
5. VI01 - create shipment cost doc.
Here PO will get generated automatically. For that PO, a service entry sheet is created for every L.R no given by Transport vendor. Then MIRO is posted for the service entry sheet.Payment is done against that.
But my client's requirement is that normally transporter will have contract with the company. Transporters supply to various Customer place and raises the bill for every L.R no.
In case of Transporteru2019s freight bills settlement, vendor invoice posting should be L.R no wise which is captured in Shipment
L.R no wise tracking is required for Transporteru2019s payment.
I understand that there is no SAP STD integration of LR number of shipment doc with vendor Incoming Invoice posting. But Vendor invoice can be posted for multiple POs.
When shipment document is created, the system will generate PO automatically in the background. L.R number is to be captured and should be passed on to PO doc through USER EXIT.
Hence I request you to kindly reply USER EXIT available for Shipment doc. so that the customization (development) can be done in transporteru2019s (vendor) payment L.R No. wise.
Please reply your view in this regard.

Anbu

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.

For Standard Materials, Tax code is defaulting from Info record.
As freight is a service, we only have Short text in the PO not the material.
Is there any way i can create info record for service materials? so that i can enter tax code in info record and that defaults into PO.
Thanks.

Regards,

Hi
On double clicking on the item level, respective item details of the material is displayed and then click SHIFT+ F6 to see the COSTCENTER in the shipement cost document.
Configuration:
1) In Item category configuration account assigment category is Cost Center.
Logistics Execution>Transportation>Shipment Costs>Shipment Cost Document>Shipment Cost Types and Item Categories-->Define item categories
2) In the Transaction code OKB9 Costcenter is assigned to the company code , in order to automate the determination of CO assignments in case of Shipment cost document creation
Logistics Execution>Transportation>Shipment Costs>Settlement>Automatic Determination of CO Assignments

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!
Regards,
Tom

Freight capitalization for STO process using shipment cost document

Dear MM experts
I have been testing and trying to charge freight to material using transportation module. I know how to do it in simple STO process without SCD (shipment cost document) but I am not able to do it with SCD.
I have searched and tried every link I found on SCN. Unfortunately there are many open threads and non of them is answered or giving complete solution. For example I have tried this link where Ajit Kumar has explained the scenario in detail I am but unable to achieve my result. I have also tried other links and SAP note 427944 as well.
Now what thing confusing me is accounting entries and documents/steps where these accounting entries will be posted.
My current process is like this in plant to plant transfer under same company code
STO > OBD > Shipment Document > PGI > Accouting Entry with 641 movement type. Material account debit and same account credit. > Shipment Cost document > GR with 101 without any accounting entry > Transfer freight cost to FI using Freight Service PO determination > Accounting Entry Freight Outward Expense Debit and Freight Clearing Account Credit > MIRO > Accounting Entry Freight Clearing Debit and Vendor Credit
As you can see we are booking freight as an expense and not charging to material. Now what I want is that freight should be charged to material. If I am sending material from plant P000 to plant P201 under same comapny code then freight charges should be added in material cost in plant P201.
I have done FRB1 condition type with accrual and copy shipment cost tick mark and other stuff suggested in all those threads but it is not working.
My requirement is to understand the points where and what accounting entries will be created as per my new scenario which is same as old one except one difference which is to charge freight to material instead of booking expense in freight service PO.
Lets take an example that material cost price is 100 and freight charges is 50. Now as per old threads at the time of GR against OBD system will create accounting document with 150 debiting the stock in plant P201. What about credit? If we have added freight here then what about 2nd accounting entry in my first scenario in which freight expense is debited and clearing account is credited? Could anyone please explain accounting entries and points where these entries will be posted?
Another thing is that is it only possible with moving average price to charge freight to material or can we do this with standard price as well using some standard or customized solution?
Detailed and easy to understand answer will be highly appreciated.
Thank$

Hi Moazzam ;
Firstly, you can benefit Badi/s in package VTRA which is given belowed.
Secondly , i think that shipping method --> create sto with delivery --> create shipment document and shipment cost document (problem is starting so system will be create PO and service entry sheet automatically , can you try shipment document is non-related with cost document.
Thirdly , you can post invoices charge to material with miro , if you success to direct freight costs to stock account (BSX).
Also , you can benefit doc. sap behaviours for Std price/ Map --> Planned & unplanned delivery costs in mm
I hope , you can manage your process ; for me standart way is the best.
Regards.

Service Entry Sheet in ECC 6.0 shipment costing security object?

Does anyone know what security object is being checked during service entry sheet creation? When I run the shipment cost create process in foreground (RV56TRSL) VI04, the program creates and settles the shipment cost, but in background only the shipment cost doc creates the settlement remains open (status A) and I get a message:
You have no authorization for this transaction with movement type 101
My assumption is a different object is being called in background versus foreground but my traces are not showing me anything useful.
thank you

Shipment settlement in ECC 6.0 requires the users to have some version of the MIGO object to prefrom the goods movement. this is a change from 4.7 and prior.
