How to close an export declaration

Former Member

Hello,

What is the correct way to close an export declaration? Has this to be done manually or will this be done via a message from customs?

In our current set up, we receive the release for export message from customs and after that we print the EAD. The status of the declaration at that time is "registered". Our forwarder reports to customs when our goods have reached the port. Should we expect a message from customs that closes out our declaration and changes the status  or is there a manual step that we need to execute to close the declaration?

Regards,

Ed

Hi Ed,

If you should expect a further message from Customs or not, primarily depends on the Customs Authority - which country are we talking about here?

It's quite common to leave the Declaration open (although of course removed from the work-list) in case any amendment is needed.

Hi,

Once the goods crosses the border you should expect ECS Outbound Endorsement message from customs/broker.

You can update your configuration to determine the closing portion automatically via ECS Outboudn Endorsement message or you can close the customs declaration via menu options - EDIT -> Close Document.

Once you do that the declaration status will be complete. Thanks.

hi, Ed

You can call program /SAPSLL/CUHD_CSD_COMPLETE_DOC to close the cus dec. And you can implement Badi /SAPSLL/BADI_CDOC_STATUS_FIN to define your own closing criteria.

You can create a job to make it automatically.   

Hope it's helpful
