Hi,

You can map the sceanrio as below;

1) In the delivery document pricing procedure add a condition type called prepaid fright rate, for example ZFRI.

2) Make sure that the same condition type is available in the billing document pricing procedure.

3) You can create a seperate billing document type, called transporter invoice (copying a SAP standard proforma invoice type) and use to provide to transporter. This can be created against the delivery.

4) When delivery challan is created (I assume this has been created after PGI), apply billing block (you can create a new billing block in SPRO like freight rate block) at the delivery header level -> financial processing tab.

5) Once the frieght rate is received from the transporter, apply the frieght rate in the delivery document frieght rate conditoin type then remove the billing block in the delivery and create the regular delivery related billing document. By this way, when the system creates the billing document, it copies the frieght rate from the delivery document.

This can be automated also, depeding on the business requirements, by developing the Z-programs.

Hi,

you need to implement (LE-TRA):

With this you are able to pay the carrier and forward the transportation charges to the SD invoice. But this is not simply setting up a partner function.
