Landing Cost

[Former Member]

I have a scenario regarding the unplanned delivery cost. I have to raise a PO to the main vendor with the base price and the discount. But one landing cost is also there which we do not know at the time of making PO.This landing cost we have to pay to another vendor who is forwarding the goods to our plant.And the remaining amount of the PO to the main vendor. I have a idea how to do this,but I want to know the step by step Procedure for this.

Do we need to create the partner functions, if yes then please explain?

how will we clear the forwarder for landing cost??

Please give me a step by step procedure.

Points will be awarded for the answer with explaination.

Thanks Pankaj

so you mean to say, we again have to change the value of landing cost in Invoice for the forwarder.

[pankaj_singh9]

Yes, you can change the Landing Charges as per the Vendor Bill during LIV Processing in MIRO and do LIV Posting.

Dear pankaj,

Thanks for replying. I have one doubt.

you said

"Now in PO (ME21N), under Conditions Tab, enter value against this condition type and select this condition type and click on "Detail" button and maintain the Freight vendor vendor here"

As this condition type in unplanned then how can we give value here??

plz clarify me.

[pankaj_singh9]

If you want to load the landing charges on inventory then it is suggested to maintain some approximate value in PO.

For e.g.

1. Landing Charges is 1000 INR as per PO

2. During GR in MIGO,

Stock Account - Dr - 1000 INR
Landing Charges Cr - 1000 INR

3. During LIV for Freight Vendor in MIRO; suppose as per Bill, it is 1500 INR then;

Freight Vendor - Cr - 1500 INR
Landing Charges - Dr - 1000 INR
Stock Account - Dr - 500 INR

And if it is 500 INR then;

Freight Vendor - Cr - 500 INR
Landing Charges - Dr - 1000 INR
Stock Account - Cr - 500 INR

Set up the partner functions u2013

For Goods supplier

Step 1

Vendor Account Group

IMG->LOGISTICS GENERAL->BUSINESS PARTNER->VENDOR->CONTROL ->DEFINE

ACCOUNT GROUPS AND FIELD SELECTION ( goods presenter)

Step 2

Defining Partner Schemas

IMG->MATERIALS MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER -> DETERMINATION -

>PARNER SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD

->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMAS

Step 3

Assign Partner Schema

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION->PARTNER

SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMA

u201E« THEN ASSIGN PARTNER SCHEMA

Step 4

Define Permissible Partner Role Per Account Group

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION -

>PARTNER ROLES ->DEFINE PERMISSION PARTNER ROLES

If you want a partner schema for your own document type then define your partner schema and assign to document type using the below mentioned path.

IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER ->DETERMINATION -

>PARTNER SETTINGS IN PURCHASING DOCUMENTS ->DEFINE PERMISSION

PARTNER SCHEMAS

Once you have this configuration then you change your vendor in easy access menu (XK02-select partner function) define the partner roles.

Hi,

For the landing cost , create a condition type using M/06 and also accommodate the same condition type in the pricing procedure using M/08.

In the PO creation choose the related landing cost condition type , enter a least possible value and enter the forwarding vendor in the condition detail in the PO.

Thanks & Regards,

Amjad

Hi,

Go to M/06, here take copy of Freight condition type for e.g. for FRA1 as Landing Charges, keep following controls;

Condition Control - A

Calculation Type - A

Condition category - B (Delivery cost)

Also make "Accrual" indicator active and Vendor in GR as 2 (Always Possible)

In M/08 (Calculation Schema), assign the Accrual Key against the freight condition and also do the necessary account determination in OBYC

Now in PO (ME21N), under Conditions Tab, enter value against this condition type and select this condition type and click on "Detail" button and maintain the Freight vendor vendor here.

During MIGO, following entry will come;

Stock A/c - Dr - 110 INR
GR/IR Clearing - Cr - 100 INR
Landing Charges - Cr - 10 INR

At the time of MIRO, select option as "Goods/Services only" for Invoice entry of Main vendor and "Planned Delivery Cost" for Freight vendor.

For LIV of Freight Vendor;

Freight Vendor - Cr - 10 INR
Landing Charges - Dr - 10 INR
