Country CE European Union how to set as Country of Origin?

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

We receive vendor declarations from our supplier and in the vendor declaration

they have entered CE=European Union as country of origin.

How to enter in GTS in the vendor declaration the country of origin CE?

CE is not a country, so how can it be entered into the system or how to handle this?

It is a trading good for us, so we want to enter the country of origin also on our invoice

but therefore we need to have a country(And CE is not a country).

So how is this to be handled?

Can it be solved if we setup CE as a country in SAP? Would this be okay?

Thanks

Hi,

please check SAP OSS Note:

Hi Dieter,

please keep in mind that there are trade preference origin and IHK Ursprung (which can not be EU).

In my opinion: If you get a LTVD with CE/EU this is an information about trade preference but not IHK country of origin.

=> I would not save it.

Hi Tobias,

The supplier explicitly has written in the LTVD country of origin CE,

so its got to be handled somehow, but how?

Hi Dieter,

i am not sure but i would do this:

Request a new LTVD with correct country.

Usually you should provide IHK - Country of origin by an existing country (AT; FR...)

Trade Preference origin by your calculation (if there is TP you can print EC).
