Shipment cost in STO scenario....

[former_member71163]

Dear Experts,

I am working in Inter company STO scenario ...let me explain the scenario briefly...

Receiving plant=xxxx(supplying plant for end customer)

Supplying plant=yyyy

when there is deficit stock in plant xxxx PO is placed based on that NLCC del is created(Replenish delivery).....based on NLCC del shipment doc is created to ship the materials to xxxx plant.......

My concern is

1)An error I am facing when I try to do assignments in ship cost doc-- "company code differs from del doc"

2)By default 1000 is flowing as company code in ship cost doc...from where it is flowing?.......

3)How shipment cost relevance is marked by default?......

Looking for your inputs.......

Hello S Kumar

The key to your problems could lie in the transportation planning point used for the shipment and/or the shipment type.

Question 3) A Shipment Cost Type is assigned to a Shipment Type. T code T_57. At the same place you define the Shipment cost relevance for the shipment type, meaning whether the header or the leg/s, or the Load transfer point or the border crossing point is relevant for shipment cost for a particular shipment type. You could change this ( i.e. render the shipment to be not relevant for shipment) manually during shipment creation.

Question 2) A shipment is done from a transportation planning point and a transportation planning point is defined in the Enterprise structure for Logistics Execution for a Company code. So from the shipment, the system got the transportation planning point and from its config got the company code.

Question 1) So it still leaves the question "why the error ' company code differs from del doc'". I can only guess what may be the reason. If you used a Transportation Planning Point which is linked to the wrong company code, that might have resulted in this. I don't think (know) if there is a catch mechanism for shipments during creation to point out that the delivery assigned belongs to a different company code from that of the shipment (derived from its transportation point). In my client's system, I am able to create a shipment for a transportation point belonging to one company code and assigned a delivery from another co code to it.

Post this issue in LE forum so you may get better advice.

Good luck.
