What is freight accounting in mm?.

what is freight accounting..can anyone just explain in brief about it.. a link would also be much helpfull..

Hi,
I'am not sure or what I say is anwering your question, but I hope it helps.
Freight:
2 possibilities;
a) Planned freight costs
b) Unplanned freight costs
In case of planned freight cost you know in advance (while creating the PO) what
the exact freight costs are. You can enter in the PO these costs. You can enter them in a condition type (even you can provide the different transporter vendor number).
The advantage of planned costs is that the costs go directly to the material you entered in the PO.
In the second case, the unplanned cost, you do not know the cost before you
receive the invoice from the vendor.
During Invoice verification you enter the amount of the unplanned cost in the invoice header on tab Details from transaction MIRO. The cost will be
split over the number of materials. The disadvantage is that it is more complex
to calculate the costs. Example: If you order 3 machines and 1 software package.
The freightcosts are 1000 Euro, than SAP will devide these 1000 Euro over the 4 products. The change that the freight cost for the software package is 250 Euro is probably not right!
Hope this will help you further.
regards,
Eric

    Not sure what you are looking for, but if the invoice has Frieght accounting, offset account will be Receivable account which you can find in the transaction type window as well.

  • What G/L Accounts are Updated Accordingly when the Posting Date is Changed?

    We are on SAP 2007 PL15, and our new fiscal year started 1 July 2008. Beginning on 1 July, whenever we change the posting date on a marketing document to a date in June, the following message appears:
    Newly Entered Posting Date Relates to Another Posting Period. Do you want to update G/L accounts accordingly? [Yes]  [No]
    Does anyone know what G/L accounts would be "updated accordingly" based on Posting Date? We did not get any such message last year when we were on SAP 2005.
    Thank you,

  • Mac Mail... what e-mail accounts will work with this?

    Hello,
    I want to set up my e-mail to work with Mac Mail. I currently have a yahoo account and realize this cannot be done with Yahoo. So, my question is what e-mail account can I set up and use with Mac Mail?
    I am aware that .mac has an account that works, but I am not into paying $100 for that at the moment. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you!

    I currently have a yahoo account and realize this cannot be done with Yahoo
    You can use your Yahoo mail if you use their Yahoo Mail Plus service.
    You'll need to enable POP access to your mailbox, then you can setup Mail.app with a new POP account pointing to Yahoo.
    If you don't want to use Mail Plus then you can use any other service that offers POP or IMAP access to your mailbox. However, bear in mind that most free mail services rely on a web-based interface because they use the ads to pay for the service.

  • What is multiple account assignment??

    Hi Experts,
    Kindly clear my doubts.
    1) What is Multiple Account Assignment in PO ?
    2) If i have ordered 100 ea of material, can i split 50 ea for cost center (K) and 50 ea for project (P) with this multiple account assignment in PO?
    Regards,
    Prasath

    Hi,
    I hope multiple account assignment is only possible for different cost centers and not against project.Mostly this will be used for consumable material only.
    When specifying multiple account assignment for an item, you must consider the following points:
    How is the net value of a PO item to be distributed (apportioned) to the individual account assignment items?
    The costs can be allocated on a quantity or percentage basis (for example, 10 pieces or 10% of the order value to cost center 100).
    How are the costs to be apportioned if only a part of the ordered quantity has been delivered and invoiced?
    In this case, the accounts are charged with the invoiced amount of the partial delivery. For each purchase order item with multiple account assignments, you can specify whether the cost allocation is carried out proportionally or on a progressive fill-up basis.
    If you allocate the costs proportionally, the invoiced amount is distributed equally among the accounts.
    If you allocate the costs on a progressive fill-up basis, the invoiced amount is allocated to the individual account assignment items one after the other. In this case, costs are allocated to account assignment item 2, for example, only when item 1 has received its full allotment, and so on. This process continues with each successive partial invoice until the full invoice amount is reached.
    Fo further details you can refer

  • How to capture ship method and freight account in customer master and order

    Hello
    In the customer master, I would like to maintain fields like freight vendor, freight account no and preferred ship method (Like Fedex Ground, UPS next day, etc), and have them copy over to the sales order. I know we can define freight vendor in partner function, but I do not see anything in the shipping view of the customer master similar to this. We are not using the transportation module, and are on ECC 6.0.
    Is my only option to define these in the text fields or under additional data of customer master and have text determination carry this over?
    Im curious as to how other companies have configured this, any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Ken
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Ken,
    You may use the reserve fields of the customer master at general data or sales area data.
    In customer master data, choose menu: Extras --> Additional data
    To use a reserve field (attribute 1) of the customer master proceed as follows:
    1. Change the short descriptions of the data elements KATR1 by using the SAP enhancement and activate the data element.
    2. Maintain the entity tables TVK1 with the values.
       "01" Fedex Ground
       "02" UPS next day
       etc.
    3. Use the same procedure for the remaining reserve fields KATR2-KATR9.
    Then continue with enhancement of copying the customer master fields into the sales document either VBAK, VBAP, or VBKD.

  • Freight accounting in OM and AR

    About accounting for FREIGHT - just wanted to confirm something we noticed. We've set the profile option 'Inventory Item for Freight' to FREIGHT (an item we created) but we have different FREIGHT items based on the zones they are going to, all with User Item Status 'Freight'. As we use Auto-Accounting based on Transaction Types, we would have one order placed with FREIGHT 1 and another order with FREIGHT 2 depending on where the product is shipping to. When the invoice is generated, we notice that the correct Freight Accounts are hit even though the Profile Option is pointing to a static FREIGHT account. Therefore, we are inferring that the Profile Option is only an option for Freight to be interfaced to AI. Just wondering if we are correct here.

    dear all,
    i am facing the same problems, after i run workflow process and autoinvoice, i am getting some invoices, whereas some SO are still not transferred.
    anybody with the solutions please help.
