Shipment cost not calculating on VT01N

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I have configured the shipment cost configuration in all the relevant areas of Transportation node but still Shipment Cost is not calculating in VT01N.

Following configuration has been done:

  Define Routes

• Define Modes of Transport
• Define Shipment Types
• Define Transportation Connection Points

Route Determination

• Define Routes and Stages
• Define Transportation Zones

Shipments

• Maintain Transportation Relevance
• Define Shipment Types

Shipment Costs

• Basic Functions
  • Define Data Rules
  • Define and Assign Tariff Zones
• Shipment Cost Document
  • Shipment Cost Types and Item Categories
  • Shipment Cost Relevance and Default for Shipment Cost Type
• Pricing
  • Define Condition Types
  • Define and Assign Pricing Procedure   --- here I am using the Standard Pricing Procedure
• Settlement
  • Assign Purchasing Data

I have maintained the condition record in TK11.

Please let me know If I have missed any other steps.

Also please let me know the sequence in which the pricing will be picked up.

Quick action  Text Removed

Now I am able to correct the problem of picking the Tariff Zone but still cost is not calculating. System is picking the pricing schema but unable to pick the value. My values are defined in slabs.

Any idea !!!!

What are you seeing in log? If you check this in VT01N/VT02N then there must be some log and if you are in VI02/VI01 then you could see why condition is not being picked up by system in condition analysis screen.

PS:   For your previous ID restoration you can raise a query in SCN support.

I have checked the VT01N and found everything in green but with a message

"Goods types directory could not be determined"

I checked on the forum and found some configuration to be done on "Direct Store Delivery" component but unfortunately I am not seeing that node. I checked the component feature and found that it is for Mobile Entry, so I skip that part.

I saved the document in VT01N purposely to check the condition in VI01 and to a greater surprise in condition analysis is system is showing that it is picked the value but it is not coming in Net value.

I am attaching the screen shots.

Getting stuck now 😞 ...

Hi

I can see that your condition record has been found but your FB00 condition is manual. Did you check it with making it automatic condition only. Put D in condition type settings and unmark the manual tick in pricing procedure and try again.

Thank$

[Former Member]

In my pricing procedure condition is not marked as "Manual" and in condition Type "D" is selected.

[moazzam_ali]

Ok. Check in freight item condition tab. You are checking in sub item condition screen. See the below screen and check in this one or you can also go to VT01N/VT02N and click on Freight Cost Estimate button. See what you get here.

Thank$

[Former Member]

I have already checked there and net value is also coming zero there. I checked with the Freight Cost Estimate option as well.

[former_member184065]

Hi,

Did you maintain condition record in TK11?.Please check your condition record in TK12 and if there is no condition record then maintain it and see the result.

I maintained the condition record in TK11. If you see the screenshot which I posted earlier, you'll find that it is picked in the Condition Analysis tab.

[former_member184065]

Hi,

Go to VT02N and click on " Freight cost estimate " button and share the screen shot of it.

The screenshots of FCE and after pressing detail...

[moazzam_ali]

This is weird

Please check validity dates of this condition record. If there is valid condition record then system must determine it in shipment cost document. Paste the screen shot of TK12 of this condition record.

Thank$

[Former Member]

Yeah its getting very weird...

[moazzam_ali]

Try maintaining condition record without any scale. May be your this document doesn't fulfil the scale. Check this one also. It is now getting just hit and try kinda thing

Thank$

[former_member184065]

Hi,

Could you please share the FB00 condition type settings to see that how you have maintained.

BR's,

Hi

Screenshot for the condition.

[former_member184065]

Hi,

Please go to VT02N and the double click on line item and click on freight code tab and see gross weight is coming or not because in your condition type,you have maintained field " calculation type-"Gross Weight".FYI,see the below snap shot.

BR's,

Naren

[Former Member]

Hi,

Yeah I checked that as well and the weight is also coming. Screenshot is attached for the reference.

[former_member184065]

Hi,

Fine.Kindly share the condition record with scales to further investigating on this issue.

BR's,

[Former Member]

Screeshot of the conditions maintained

[former_member184065]

Hi,

If you have maintained below settings in your condition type,

Calculation type-D gross weight

Scales type-Gross weight scale

then in condition record level system will show you scales like "scale gross weight " instead of

"scale quantity".

In your screen, system is clearly showing that scale is on quantity based not on gross weight based. It means that ,in your condition type ,you would have maintained scales type-quantity scale C and not D-gross weight scale.Due to this,system is unable to fetch the condition record.Please check at your end once again all settings and create same scenario new one and see the result.

Goods types directory could not be determined

System will pop up the above message if something related to freight is not maintained properly.  So you need to take the help of ABAPer and check the following Function Modules which are related to above message.

• SD_FREIGHT_CODE_SET_DETERMINE
• SD_FREIGHT_CODE_DETERMINATION

Hi

Where you are seeing the scale basis "Quantity". As per my above screenshot Scale basis is "Gross Weight Scale" and in my condition it is also Gross weight in Calculate. Type.

Please let me know where you are pin pointing that.

Please note that there is no enhancement/user exit applied in that area.

Still I need to check with ABAPer; what I need to communicate to them.

Regards

[Lakshmipathi]

there is no enhancement/user exit applied

Please go through my statement once again.  I never said that some enhancement is triggering the issue.  I have clearly mentioned some settings related to freight (it could be either configuration or master data) is not set properly and in standard the said two FMs would validate that.  I am not sure, in your case, which one is working. 

With the help of ABAPer, create one more document in debug and check at what stage, system is popping up that message.  You will come to know which Function Module is validating.

Hi

Finally I retrieve my Old Id; I'll check with my ABAPer and will get back.

Thank Moazzam for your support in retrieving the ID.

[Former Member]

Hi

Following is the screenshot which my ABAPer has provided and mention that the message is appearing from there.

Also I would like to tell that I have reconfigured the complete configuration from SAP Building Blocks G82_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_DE. Please let me know what additional settings I have to do in configuration or in Master Data.

Hello Imran,

FYI.

The Tariff Zone may be missing for the combination

You can maintain it in IMG Path.

Logistics Execution ->Transportation->Shipment Costs->Define and Assign Tariff Zones

[Former Member]

HI Rohit

I have defined the settings in there with Postal Code and without the Postal code as well.

Any other tip....

Regards

[moazzam_ali]

Hi

What combination you are using for maintaining condition record and what are you getting in your shipment cost document? Your configuration seems fine but it is difficult to analyse without knowing the results of this. Can you see line item in SCD and if you go to conditions can you see your pricing procedure there?

Thank$

[Former Member]

Thanks for the reply.

For Condition Record I am using the Standard FB00 condition and it is maintained with the basis of Service Agent/Tariff Zone Dep/Tariff Zone Target. I am not getting any errors but I am getting "0' value after pressing the Freight Cost Estimates button.

One more thing I would like to add here is I have set "Do not adopt stages" and "No legs to be determined" in Shipment Type setting.

Where can I see the line item in Shipment Cost Document? If you mention the path then it will be helpful for me.

Regards

[Former Member]

Hi Imran,

To view the line items, you need to create the Shipment Cost Document and the same can be created using VI01 tcode with the reference of the Shipment document.

For the Zero value - please share the log screen print.

Regards

[Former Member]

The log screen printout is

It looks that system is not getting Tariff Zone Dep and Tariff Zone Target....

Where I have to define this in my Shipment Cost Document.

Hi Imran

I just checked your profile and came to know that you are new member and have recently joined SCN. Welcome here

I did this because from your explanation it looks like you didn't search anything in Google or SCN before posting here or if you did you didn't read the transportation configuration steps properly.

Please search in SCN and do some efforts.

If you don't have a stage or leg then system won't calculate the freight cost. Its good that you are following standard pricing procedure. You should follow the standard settings for 0001  Indiv.Shipmt - Road and test again. Check in shipment cost calculation tab as well what is the statuses there.

For SCD line item you'll have to go in VI01. Rest you can study threads and documents on it and try again.

Thank$

Hi Moazzam

Actually I am not a new member, just created a new ID. Unfortunately I have lost my old id .

I did search Google and SCN from the last two days before posting this discussion in SCN. Some of the good links which helped me for the configuration are:

Shipment Cost Processing - Delta - TD - Transportation and Distribution - SAP Library

Transportation Configuration and Process Flow - ERP Operations - SCN Wiki

Transportation (LE-TRA) - SAP Library

ETC...

Currently get the SDTRA.PDF document which I am reading .....

Infact after reading all the document I still unable to understand the proper technical flow required for shipment cost calculation.

Please share me your concept, it will be helpful for me.

Regards

[moazzam_ali]

I remember Imran Khan who asked lot questions and once I checked his content tab and surprisingly all of his questions were unanswered . I Ddn't know you are the same user or some new Imran Khan but I hope you are aware of forum rules and other good gestures i.e. close thread and give feedback about your solution etc.

Anyhow I already gave you the hint that for cost calculation you should follow the standard settings for 0001 shipment type. You are using combination of tariff zones and not using any leg or stage so how could system determine condition record and calculate price? Screenshot which you have shared have a sign of ? and you could read more information about that ,message there.

For your understanding please test with all standard settings first and then play with your created Z documents.

Thank$

[Former Member]

No I am not the same as I always appreciated the persons who answered my questions. And yes if it was unanswered, then I remain it there unanswered as it will misguide the persons who searched in the forum .. My previous id was P686787... if you able to find that then please help me out to retrieve it.....

Anyways dear my problem to test is on the standard setting, I am on the client side and some of my system settings cannot be changed. I tried it with this but it get stuck on Purchase Organization assignment to company code which I cannot change.

Let me dive it further ...
