Note 173411 - Incompletion procedures for foreign trade

Summary

Symptom

In a delivery or invoice, the header and item foreign trade data are

incomplete. It is unclear what the incompletion procedure checks, and

what needs to be configured to ensure completeness.

Through release 4.5B, the incompletion check for foreign trade in

deliveries and invoices was hard-coded. When the delivery or invoice

is recognized by the system as an export (i.e., the country code of the

shipping point does not equal the country code of the ship-to party),

the system invokes an incompletion procedure to ensure that the document contains the minimum data necessary for compliance in export

reporting.

By default, the following fields are checked in the incompletion

procedure:

Header

Field/Name Source (t-code)

EXPVZ Mode of transport IMG- (OVE2, OVE3), Routes: (0VTC)

ZOLLA Office of exit IMG- (OVE2, OVE3), Routes: (0VTC)

IEVER Inland mode of transport IMG- (OVE2, OVE3), Routes: (0VTC)

Item

Field/Name Source (t-code)

STAWN Commodity Code Material Master

HERKL Country of Origin Material Master

EXPRF Export procedure IMG- (OVE6, OVE7)

EXART Business Transaction Type IMG- (OVE4, OVE5)

Other terms

VF072, incompletion, EIKP, EIPO, UVALL, VL02, VF02, T609, VF01, VF04,

VF01

Reason and Prerequisites

Incomplete configuration for export documents.

Solution

Maintain configuration for foreign trade.

Beginning with release 4.5A, the incompletion procedure is now config-

urable. An incompletion schema can now be created using customizing

transactions VI29 and VI49. (NOTE: if NO schema is maintained, the

system will automatically use the hard-coded check by default).

The incompletion schema in transactions VI29 and VI49 can be maintained

in releases 40A and 40B, but does not become active until release 45A.

If one chooses, for reasons of business process, not to use the

incompletion procedure, then it can be deactivated.

For releases 3.0x through 4.6x, this is accomplished by utilizing the

user-exits contained in enhancement V50EPROP (see related note 118573).
