partial shipment

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

we have a following scenario

we will getting the order say 1000 units with incoterms CIF (Sea freight) and the shipment is partial shipment. After despatching 500 for balance 500 units customer will insist us to dispatch by Air instead of Sea with different incoterms but prepared to pay the difference. please advise me how to configure the above.

Thanks in Advance

Ayub have correctly said that we can have 2 line item.

Considering that at the time of booking of order the urgency was not there & it have come up later. In that case, reduce the quantity to 500 in first line item & add a second line item with different incorterm & price. In stead of adding new line item, you can also create new order, by reducing the quantity in original order from 1000 to 500. This is standard functionality.

Hi Vinayak,

As rightly said by AK u can create 2 seperate line items and 2 seperate Incoterms. If you have already delivered 500 units then go and change the Order Qty for Line item 1 as 500 and create a new line item 2 for Qty 500 with NEW Incoterms.

Hope this meets your requirement.

REWARD if it helps you!!

Hi Vinayak,

Please clarify the following.

As you said you got order 1000 qty, for this you have already created delivery and billing.

If the order is on partial shipment, it will not allow you to create one more delivery

In this type of scenario,

what you can do this is create a sales order with same material 2 line items like

10 Material 1 500

20 Material 1 500

and for each line item you can give separate incoterms in the Billing tab at the item level.

for 10 CIF (Sea Freight) and for 20 CIF (Air Freight). So when you bill the freight charges will be picked up automatically.

Dear Ak,

in this when we get order even customer will not be knowing the urgency. In case material is required urgently few quantity he will ask us to send by Air.

In that case what you do is, suppose you created sales order for 1000 items and already delivered 500 by CIF (Sea Freight) and remaining the customer wants to be shipped by air, so what you do is go back to T.Code: VA02 and at the item level change the incoterms to CIF (air freight) and do delivery in T.Code: Vl01n, then the system will pick up the new incoterms for the remaining 500 and billing will be done based on that.

try it out and let me know.

AK
