VF04 - third party - pseudo goods receipt

Hello,
we do third party invoicing based on pseudo goods receipt.
This is because we sometimes charge the customer in warranty cases even if the purchase is for free.
(if we get the broken part back, we will raise a credit note afterwards)
As soon as we do MIGO, we are able to invoice the GR qty with VF01.
But we want to release the invoices via VF04 which doesn't work unless the IR is posted.
I've checked lots of SAP notes (like 84229) but wasn't able to find a solution.
The billing-relevance for the item category is 'F' and the billing qty. in copy control is 'E'.
(Changing billing relevance to 'B' should be the last option, as order appears in VF04 as soon as created and I'm
not quite sure whether the VPRS valuation problem occures again)
Does someone has an idea?
Thanks
Wolf

Hi,
In the item category  VOV7
when F= Order related Billing status according to Invoice qty, hence system allows VF01 only after MIRO is completed. That is the standard behaviour.
I heve never tried this , but please check by changing to "G = Order related Billing status according to Delivery qty"
Hope this helps.

  • Third Party Procurement Goods Receipt

    For Third party procurement, where goods are ordered from a vendor and drop-shipped to a customer, how does SAP recommend the goods receipt process take place by the customer? (We are using CRM/ECC/SRM)
    For example, normal PO creation requires a plant to be specified.  However in third party procurement, there is no goods receipt into a plant, as the materials are shipped from the vendor directly to a customer. 
    Please provide any insight on if or how a goods receipt is performed in third party procurement scenario.  I believe SRM enables a new 107 movement, if this is true can someone please elaborate on this process.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    In 3rd party sales, the preq so generated in SD got to have plant at any cost no matter we receive into our plant or not.  This is because, we need to be able to pay to vendor subsequently (whether we receive into our system by active GR for the PO or not  and MIRO uses PO reference and that becomes the data (in most cases of 3rd party sales process) for SD billing.  So, plant must be there.  However, processing GR is optional.  But, a good solution is:
    Customer places order with us so, SO# created.  Being 3rd party order, creates 3rd party PReq and I would recommend a shipping notification (or Inbound Delivery) be EDI'ed to our system from vendor's system when he dispatches goods to customer.  When customer confirms receipt in his receiving location, based on customer's communication (by phone/email/fax etc) we process GR logically. 
    Now, billing part whether before or after the vendor invoice processing is suggested in both the ways in best practices in two different scenarios.  However, it is recommended to have vendor invoice processed before customer invoice.  Hope, this helps..

  • Third party ships goods. Automatic GR in our company?

    Hi,
    We have a PO. The PO idoc is send to the vendor (orders05).
    The vendor sends an confirmation Idoc back (ordrssp).
    Then then vendor sends the goods directly to the end customer.
    Can I post an automatic goods receipt? We do not check or the customer
    receives the goods. In our process this is always the case.
    1) Can I use an GR Idoc?
    2) If so, which one?
    3) Or should I always use the inbound delivery (ASN) and post GR by my self?
    Please advice.

  • Third Party Sale with Consignment  ?

    Hi All
    Our client has a very specific requirement  , they want their vender to put the stock at the customer's premises , so that the customer can use the material as per their requirement . Clint is a Treading concern. So how to map the scenario ?
    to my mind it involves third party sale as the client is a treading concern and want the material to be delivered from vendor's plant  to the customer directly.  But also involves consignment sale  as we cant bill the customer untill and unless the customer  inform us about the quantity they have  consumed.
    So please suggest any idea with detail process only.
    Thanks in advance
    Ashok
    Please suggest....

    Hi Ashok,
    this is clearly a third party scenario.
    you bill the customer on the basis of vendor's invoice.
    and vendor will invoice the customer only when the customer uses the materials.
    so from the perspective of a vendor,
    its a consignment scenario.
    so just follow our standard third party scenario.
    good luck.

  • Third party & intercompany

    Hello SAP gurus
    I have small confusion regarding the thirdparty and intercompany sales.
    Could you please tell me the difference between third party and intercompany sale.Inboth the cases the delivering plant is different and goods are deliveried to customer directly .for me the process seems to same .
    Thanking you.
    Regards
    Srikanth

    Hi
    Intercompany-
    Customer orders goods to company code/Sales organization A .A Sales org will accept and bill the order in the system. Company code/sales org B will deliver the goods to end customer and raise an intercompany billing on with reference to delivery. This can happen only after sales org 1 raises invoice to his end customer to whom the material has been delivered by sales organisation 2.
    Third Party :
    Here the customer orders the goods to the company . So the company orders the vendor to supply the goods to the customer and there by company raises the invoive to the customer and the vendo sends the invoice to the company code
    Difference between Intercompany and Third party is Here(In third party) the goods will be supplied to the customer thru outside source where as in intercompany goods will be supplied from the Internal source. Here the intercompany billing is generated as soon as we do the pgi to the customer, but in third party we will bil the goods to the customer after vendor sends the invoice to the company.

  • Third Party - multiple invoices based on dummy Goods Receipt

    In Third party sales scenario (without shipping notification) we want to create an invoice based on each dummy Goods Receipt which corresponds to individual shipment made by vendor to customer.
    Ex. Sales order qty = 10. It is split in the PO to 2, 4, 3 and 1 in the delivery schedule. Vendor ships qty 2, and then 4. There is a trace # associated with each vendor shipment to the customer. Vendor invoice is entered for qty 2 and 4.
    We want to bill 2 invoices one for two vendor shipments of 2 and 4. In VF04 order based billing for the sales order, SAP combines these 2 vendor invoices (2 + 4)  and will propose qty 6 in ONE invoice. If there a way get 2 Invoice proposals (i.e. 2 lines) in VF04 one for qty 2 and another for qty 4?
    TIA.

    Hello Ramani
    In the Copying control  (I am guessing it is for Sales document to billing document, T Code: VTFA),  set up a custom routine in the field 'Data VBRK/VBRP'  for the requisite item category ( TAS or equivalent)  by copying standard routine '01'- FV60C001- and adding a splitting criterion, may be GR #. The challenge would be whether GR# would be available at that time and if not how to get it.
    If it is Delivery based billing for some reason , then you can use standard routine '3' there. T code: VTFL: Copying control: Delivery document to billing document.
    Hope this helps.

  • Third party credit update with goods receipt

    Hi Experts,
    I need to know how customize the credit control management in the following situation:
    In third party flow without SD delivery: Sales Order -> Purchase requisition -> Purchase
    Order ->Goods Receips from supplier.
    The credit control has to be done with the delivered amount not
    invoiced. But in this flow the SD delivery is substitue by MM Goods
    Receipt in order to deliver products to the customers. When goods
    receipt is done the delivered credit amount isn't updated.
    it's necessary to check the amount delivered not the amount ordered (as it's done with the current customization)
    The customizing is:
    the item category:
    billing relevance 'B': Relevant for order-related billing - status
    acc.to order qty
    o Copying control -> invoiced quantity indicator 'E': Goods receipt
    quantity less invoiced quantity
    Schedule type: u2018CSu2019
    Credit control area update group: 00012
    Automatic control check : 'D', flag in open deliveries.
    We have checked note 410685 but not solution has been found.
    Example: Customer has a credit limit 1000 euros.
    1) Create a sales order with an total amount 900  euros.
    2) Create purchase order with the purchase requisition created
    automatically by the sales order and release it.
    3) Do goods receipt for an total amount 800.
    4) Create another sales order with a total amount 150 euros.
    Now, the new sales order is blocked, because the calculated credit is
    100 (credit limit - ordered amount). If the credit is calculated with
    the delivered quantity, the credit will be 200 and the new sales order
    won't be blocked.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Nagesh,
    In any credit memo scenario, always enable the creation of Credit Memo Request and then Credit memo. When the credit memo request is to be created, make sure that it is always created with reference to the invoice document only and not reference to the sales order, as the objective of Credit memo is to correct the prices in the invoice document. This will help you in various scenarios like exchange rate where the value of sales order and the value of invoice can be different in the local currency due to ex.rate fluctuations.
    As credit memo takes care of incorrect prices, having a document flow of credit memo request with reference to sales order is incorrect.
    With reference to the error message, it is a valid message as an invoice has been created with reference to the order. You should not create a credit memo with reference to a sales order(OR), for credit memo, u shd use a credit memo request only as the reference.
    Hence the flow for your question is
    Sales order>Invoice>Credit Memo req-->Credit Memo
    OR>F2>G2W(Confirm with others on the doc type)-->G2S
    Pls lemme know if you need further clarifications in this topic.

  • Freight from PO or goods receipt into sales order in Third party drop ship

    Hello!!!
    We have a requirement where the freight charged by vendor in third party drop ship sales order scenario should show up in the billing document to customer. So we will create a sales order with TAS item category.  This will create PReq and PO subsequently.  Once the vendor delivers the goods to customer and we do the goods receipt in the system, we will bill the customer.  While we bill we want to bring the actual freight charged by vendor to the customer billing document.  Also we bill the customer as soon as we do the receipt and do not wait for the vendor invoice.
    I am not sure if we can do this standard SAP but would like to if anyone has come across this scenario and what is the approach if we need to do this. We can have vendor send us the freight while doing the goods receipt but not sure how to transfer the value to sales order or to billing document directly.
    Any help or idea is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,

    During GRN we cannot enter any value apart from the excise or customs duty, therefore the freight that you have incured at actuals cannot be captured during GRN and therefore cannot be transfered to the invoice also.
    While creating invoice to the customer you can insert a freight condition type and enter the freight value manualy.
    Generally in third party scenario we can only invoice the cust after purchase booking has taken place. In your case you want the cust invoice to be created based on grn, for that you have modify the copy control settings.

  • Serial Number in Third Party Goods Receipt

    Hi Gurus,
    We are in the process of doing Third Party processing. Settings are done for automatic PR and PO creation from SO and sending it to vendor. We get the ASN data in web portal and that data needs to be imported in GR (MIGO), mainly the Serial Numbers in Serial Numbers Tab in the Item details Menu. Serial Number profile is maintained in Material Master - MMSL procedure assigned to the Serial Number Profile 0002.
    In the sand box I am able to get this Serial Number Tab when doing GR (MIGO) and can post it. But not in Development. Please let me if I an missing something or need to do any other setting.
    FULL POINTS AWARDED.
    Thanks & Regards.

    Hi Friend,
    Did you have activated in PO screen layout. If it is activated then it will be in MIGO.
    Hope it will solve the problem.

  • Goods issue in third party process

    Hi All,
    I have done third party process. But I am not clear for goods issue to the customer.
    We will place goods at customer premises at the time of goods receipt with purchase order reference. In this flow will place goods to customer place directly. Why should I go once again goods issue to customer and which document reference can I do.

  • Third party sales order bringing goods into inventory

    Hi gurus,
                    I have a scenario where a third party sales order will be created for which a purchase requisition is created in sales order itself. Now i have converted the PR into PO. While doing goods receipt it should come into storage location. then we should goods issues from the delivery documents. In this regard i would like to know the required coming for itself.

    Hi,
    What you want makes no sense.
    In third party process the goods won't arrive in your warehouse (SLoc) physically, because your vendor sends them directly to your vendor. Since the goods won't arrive at your site, there's also no point in speaking about creating delivery and posting goods issue.
    Please check SAP help how the process works:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/dd/560287545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
    If you want the goods to arrive at your location - even tough they don't arrive physically -, you can use the individual PO scenario. This would be a workaround - but I think you shoul revise your requirement and way of thinking.

  • Unable to reinvoice a third party item with dangerous goods check

    Hi,
    I have got a scenario where a user has created a consolidated Invoice from 4 different third party sales orders .Since he had wanted individual invoices of these sales orders,he cancelled the consolidated invoice and for 3 sales order changed the bill to party to individual and was able to reinvoice 3 sales orders individually.For these 3 sales orders, order quantity was in Base unit of measure(1 EA) and purchase order,GR ,IR and customer invoice was in 1 EA.
    For the 4th Sales the order quantity was in gallons(Sales unit) which was different from base unit of measure for that material which was in kgs.For this material dangerous goods check was activated.The purchase order was in Lbs equivalent to the order quantity in Gallons.The GR ,IR was in LBS short of order quantity.Consolidate Invoice was in kgs(if quantity was in 5600 kgs,invoiced quantity was for 5000kgs as per GR/IR).The user after cancelling the consolidated invoice is not able reinvoice this order when he goes for reinvoicing he gets a message that 'Billing document could not be processed,see log' but there is no message on the log.What could be the reason as to why he is not able to reinvoice this third party item?

    Hi Patrick,
    if you want to bill third-party order before Invoice Receipt, then billing relevance FKREL must be 'B'.
    In customizing copy control the Billing quantity indicator should be 'E'.
    Please test hese settings.

  • Finished goods procurement - Not htrough Third party order

    Hi
    The scenario:
    The client purchases some Finished goods,which they are not manufacturing, directly from vendor, (i.e.) the sale sorder requirement for some Finished goods are directly procured from vendor and they require those items to be receipted back from vendor in sales order stock.Then they will deliver to customer.
    In normal third party order , i think the Sales order triggers back to back PR with Account Assignment for statistical delivery and Item category 'S', third party. In these cases can we have the physical stock of the material in our Storage location in sales order stock and delivery can happen from thereon.
    Please inform me the configuration for the same and any solution to map the process.
    Thanks very much in advance
    regards

    hi ,
    this is individual purchase order scenario....
    while creating sales order you have to change item category from TAN to TAB.
    then automatically PR created in sales order...
    that you can see in VA02 ---scheduline category view.
    then you create PO.
    goods receipt.
    create outbound delivery in  VL01N.( with reference to order).
    Create Billing to customer
    otherwise you create material master  as follows.
    material type --- Trading goods.
    General item category--- BANC.
    item category-- TAB.
