ship-to party vs. delivery address

Dear All,

We have the following conditions

sold-to party - Italy

ship-to party - UK (distribution)

We should deliver our FGs into UK, but they (UK) requested us to deliver the goods directly to end users into Austria.

What shall we do with SO? Shall we change the ship-to party to a new one (and create a new ship to party)?

In the future if they request us to deliver directly to end users, what sall we do? Shall we create hundreds of ship-to parties?

What is your opinion?

(if we use only UK ship-to party, the delivery address will be wrong in such cases [incoterms is CPT Budaors, but we organize the whole transportation process])

thx

Hi,

I suggest you create Ship to Party with End user details like Austria details.

Then assign this ship to party in the main customer master record.

Go to delivery and change the ship to party to End user and save it...It should work.

Just in case if they keep changing ship to parties every time, get a complete list of ship to parties from them. Maintain all of them in main customer master record.

Each time at the time of delivery, you will have the option of using one ship to party and delivering the goods,

Hope this will help you out !

Regards,

Syed Nasir

Dear Csaba,

first of all i would like to inform you that take the right decision

1. whether you can deliver to all the parties that are far

2. If it is one time process, mention text and put the delivery adress of the end user.

3. if it is a regular process, and if the tranportation module is implemented see how your arrangement with transporters.

if it is a onetime process then it is ok, by mentioning it only as text or manually changing the delivery adress.

hi,

go to transaction code XD01 and create a New customer number by taking ship-to-party as a account group and assign the required incoterms , payment terms .

go to transaction code XD02 and enter the account group and customer number for which you want to assign this ship-to-party , then go to sales area tab , partners function and assign the number so that when ever a sales order is raised for this customer you will get the multiple ship-to-parties

or if you want to change delivery address only for one sales order then you can change it when you are raising the sales order.

when you are raising a sales order go to goto partners tab and select the ship-to-party and double click on it and change the address ,

pls reward points if the answer is helpful

Hi,

Create a Master Record Template for SHIP TO PARTY (END USERS) where you can maintain relevant shipping datas like INCOTERMS etc.

Assign this to your sold to party Master Record.

We can change the ship to part address manually at the delivery level.

In your case dont enter any specific INCOTERMS in the Master Record and try to enter it manually at the Sales Order Level.

Hope it solves your problem.

Dear Ravi, Murali, Syed, Varada,

Thank you for your help and answers.

To create separate customer master for each ship-to party or use one as template (and refresh the details every time) seem to be useful.

The problem is that I don't know at the moment whether these ship-to parties will be regular ship-to parties, or we use them only once.

(So, first we should get proper information on the business process... Having the exact information we can decide which solution would be the most useful)

thx

Csaba
