Transfer indicator in shipment cost document

Hi
Hi All,
I am planning to run VI06 shipment cost document generation in background on daily basis. While running in background job, shipment cost document has been created but PO document not created due to transfer indicator not set. I want to set transfer indicator as default so that PO will be created automatically while run this t.code VI06 in background. Is there any setting to do this transfer indicator always set? or Is there any other way to select this indicator for background process?
Note: I do have also posted the same question in LE as i dont know where to post exactly.
Thanks in advance,
Babu

Hi BAbu
I have never seen any configuration settings for this transfer button but I have a suggestion that make it default with screen variant and check. Use SHD0 and make it default and run background job. I am not sure but I hope it will work.
PS: Posting same question in two forums in not advisable here and it violates SCN rules. You should have posted it in one forum and if you don't get some satisfactory answer then ask moderator to move it in other forum.

Document date of Shipment cost document in a transfer document

Hi Gurus,
I have created a new shipment document and a new shipment cost document. I have created the news document with the settlement date to 30.06.2008. Then, I have transferred the shipment cost document.
The problem is the document date of the new account document that is 16.07.2008, while the posting date is 30.06.2008.
Is it possible to change or to assign the document date before to transfer the shipment cost document?
Thanks in advance.
XeviG.

Dear Karan,
My problem is not the settlement date, it is correct to 30.06.2008 because I need settlement in a period before (period 06). My problem is the document date in the account document that I need the same than settlement date, 30.06.2008, when I transfer the shipment cost document.
I need modify or introduce the document date before to transfer shipment cost documents.

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.

Free PO with shipment costs from shipment cost document

Hello,
We have a scenario where materials is received free from vendor but shipments costs are still paid to the vendor.
For shipment costs, we are creating inbound delivery against PO, then Inbound shipment and inbound shipment cost document.
The requirement is that shipment costs should get updated in Moving avg price.
But If I am marking Purchase order as Free, shipment costs are also not getting updated during GR as system also considers shipments free of charge.
Is there a way to handle this problem.
We are creating GR through vl32n and not through MIGO.
Regards
Karan

Hi,
You can try this solution.
1.Do not tick the free indicator
2.Create a condition type for discount and put 100% discount for that condition.
3.Create a condition type for shipment as a value (delivery cost) without accruals tick in the codition type(customizing).
4.Enter the shipment cost for this condition.
5.Set the pricing procedure in such a way that the gross price of the PO will not consider this shipment cost.Hence the gross price of the PO will be zero (Free of cost) but the net price will consider the shipment cost.
This shipment cost will get loaded on to inventory.
As you have defined the shipment condition type as delivery cost condition type , you can change the vendor in details of the condtion if required.

Create purchase order from shipment cost document

Hi Experts,
I would like to know how a purchase order type is linked to a shipment cost document so as to create purchase orders automatically when I do transfer posting to the vendor from the shipment cost document. How system automatically finds out the PO type and creates purchase order.
Thanks,
Emaya

Hi,
Thanks. I have made all those mentioned changes already, and infact I am able to create purchase orders(PO Type NB) automatically when I do transfer posting, but I would like to know, why NB type only? why not some other purchase order types? Suppose if I create a new PO type by copying NB with new number ranges, how to link it to my shipment cost document?
Please comment.
Regards,Emaya

Shipment Cost Document (LE-Transportation)

Hi
After flagging the Transfer check box in the Settlement Tab in item details of shipment cost document(VI03), the Purchase order(ME23N) and Service entry sheet(ML81N) are automatically getting generated. PO and Service entry sheet numbers can be seen in Service Procurement tab.
Question 1: When I separetely look into PO, I am unable trace back the flow. I mean, there is no reference of Shipment cost number in PO.
Question 2: I want the service entry sheet to get on hold/not accepted status so that i can add the list of services performed by the Forwarding agent / service agent mentioned in Shipment cost document.
Question 3: Is there any configuration setting which makes only to create a PO automatically and not the Service Entry sheet ??
Note: This subject is a mix of Transportation (Logistics Execution) and External Service Management (Materials management). The moderator of this forum can take a call on placement of this thread under suitable section.
Thanks

Dear All,
While creating a shipment cost document .A service PO is getting generated in the back ground based on which a service entry sheet is created and LIV is made.But in the configuration we are mapping the Transportation planning point to Purchase organisation alone.
Can some one let me know whether the generation of PO in the back ground for a shipment cost document in the back ground is a standard SAP feature if so can you tell me the configuration steps.
Regards,
K.Vivek

Hi,
Creation of Service PO in shipment cost document is based on the following SPRO setting or T-code.
T code : T_56.
SPRO > LE > Transportation > shipment cost Document > Shipment cost types and item categoires.
Get into the details of item categoires, you can see the indicator Generate PO.
hope this helps.

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?
Regards,
Sandeep Kulkarni
