Unplanned delivery cost at invoicing

[Former Member]

Hi experts!

I wanna distribute unplanned delivery cost to line items (material) during MIRO (invoicing) stage. I have updated configuration in logistics-invoice verification for that.

When i enter unplanned cost for "Goods/Services" items, system accurately distributes the cost over line items.

Problem arises when i enter unplanned cost for "conditions/ planned delivery items". System does not distribute cost for such items.

Actually, we have different vendors for "planned delivery items" and "Goods/ Services items". If i would enter unplanned cost in "goods/services items", it would inaccurately give credit to irrelevant vendor.

Please guide me, whether i need to maintain any configuration for that.

Hi,

We can post the unplanned delivery cost in two ways,

1. post the unplanned delivery cost in separate GL Account

2. post the unplanned delivery cost to different line item

So we have to do the configuration settings in SPRO, Material Management, Invoice verification, How to do the unplanned delivery cost, do the settings in unplanned delivery cost in line item

thnk u

Unplanned costs are used in MIRO only in case of "Goods/services" when you incurr accidental costs which have to be paid to the main vendor itslef and loaded to inventory. If you are entering " Uplanned delivery costs " in the MIRO for Delivery costs , it really makes no senes. You should just change the Value defaulted in MIRO according to the actual invoice.

Thank you Ravi.or.raj for reply,

Actually, there are many expenses at port that can't be ascertained in full at purchase order stage, so a memo is entered. Later when we receive the actual bills, the difference in cost needed to be charged at invoicing stage, because after goods receipt, order can't be changed/updated.

Referring to your solution, it would be very hard to update/adjust line items, because normally there are 500 plus line items.

Any other solution please, because such expense must be mad part of material cost

Why dont you change the Invoicing Party in MIRO details tab when posting unplanned delivery costs.
