Freight in Purchase

36 Views

Dear Experts ,

In my clients organization the freight value is uploaded on the material cost.

The scenario is as under :

1. PO is made for material X,Y,Z for 1000 , 2000 & 3000 qty resp.

The delivery schedule is as under :

on date 1 : X = 50 qty , Y = 1000 qty & Z = 500 qty is to be delivered ::::::: Consignment 01

on date 2 : X =150 , Y = 1000 & Z = 2000 qty is to be delivered .::::::: Consignment 02:

on date 3 : X= 800, & Z = 500 qty is to be delivered .::::::: Consignment 03

on date 4 : Z = 500 qty is to be delivered .

The freight vendors & the freight values for these three consignments are not known until the material arrives at the factory.

Also freight is a header level assignment & not an item level assignment .

2. The person doing the GR CANNOT CHANGE THE PO & the PO changing is a long process .Hence the PO cannot be changed any how before the GR.

My question is :

HOW CAN THIS SCENARIO BE HANDLES SO THAT THE MATERIAL IS VALUATED CORRECTLY " AT THE TIME OF GOODS RECEIPT " & NOT INVOICE VERIFICATION .
