how do i configure late delivery charges?

[Former Member]

Our client have this requirement of charging penalties for suppliers who deliver late (goods receipt day exceeded the delivery date in PO).

Thus, upon invoicing (MIRO), the system should automatically be able to compute for the correct amount for payment which is after deducting the penalties already (since the vendor delivered late).

Usually, these penalties are computed by deducting 1% for each day of delay from the total original payment amount.

So for example, if the GR date exceeds the delivery date in PO by 5 days, 5% should be deducted in the amount to be invoiced.

My question is, any suggestions how the standard SAP system could handle this?

All opinions are welcome and if you want more clarifications regarding the scenario, I can always provide more details.

You can also try activating the "Unplanned delivery cost " tab in miro .And you can manually insert the late delivery chanre in the miro.

I think if you want automise this procedure, You need to create one programe in sap which can be executed monthly which identify all material documents(& respective po) with late delivery and based on this it will run in background or foreground call transaction FB60 and deduct 5% from vendor.

The Calculation  w.r.t  No.of days delayed will have to be done Either manually at time of MIRO , or may be you could Give them some report which they could run along side MIRO to check  the PO date Vs GR date and the calculated  Price based on the reduction.

The  MIRO however, I feel will have to be done for the Full Invoice Amount(To match the vendor's Invoice) ,  and then you must handle either by means of Cash discount at Time of MIRO  or  do  a Subsequent Debit/credit function  to  reduce the Calculated  value from the Vendors net payables.

Hi.... Mr. Raviraj i am sorry, i don't really get your explanation. can you brief further?

1. Do MIRO for complete value.

2. Use Subsequent Debit/Credit function in MIRO to reduce the amount. Balance amount will be net payable to vendor.
