SD Process Design - Need advise!!

[Former Member]

Hi all experts,

I am implementing for a crude palm oil plantation company, in which the general flow of the sales process from Estate to the Milling Plant is as below:

Sales Order --> Delivery Order* --> PGI --> Billing*

Sales Order: The fresh fruit bunches (FFB) is harvested and then the amount required by the Buyer is fulfilled via creation of a sales order.

Delivery Order: At this stage, it will interface with the Weighbridge system to carry out the recording of delivery quantity. Truck without the FFB is weighed once at entrance of the estate, and truck with FFB is weighed at exit at estate.

PGI: Goods Issue is carried out with the recording of the actual quantity from the weighbridge interface back to SAP.

Billing: The billing doc is created based on PGI quantity done.

This looks pretty straightforward, but there are few concerns from the above process as highlighted in the asterisk (*) section:

Issues:

1. During the Delivery portion, data of the Driver, name, person loading and weight loaded need to be recorded at the same time to carry out the incentive payment to the drivers (both internal and external drivers) with incentives calculated on per tonnage basis.

2. Secondly, during Billing process, the amount payable would be calculated based on the grading of the FFB + the which year the FFB is planted (i.e. different year would have different pricing per ton).

Need advise on how to make the above two issues work smoothly along with the process above.

Opinion, comments and feedbacks is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

The details of Driver are manage through partner function

Pricess on basis of FFB & year

In system you have to option of gross weight & net weight, so you can develop new routine with help of abap team

first do substraction Groos - Net weight and also maintain combination of year in that routine as your conditions,and asign it in copy controll.

Will consider transportation functionalities. Thank you.

Why don't you use transportation functionality which can be used for freight costs as well ?

Sales Order -> Delivery -> Transportation (has different statuses, may be used for registrations/planning of trucks, can do auto PGI when some status is set,...) -> then Billing based on delivery

Hi,

For the two requirements you can use TEXT in sales order-->delivery.

OR

You can create new Z fileds in space provided in Additional data B.

Write pricing routine, and based on Z fields value calculate the prices
