Distribution of unplanned delivery costs during delivery cost LIV

698 Views

Hi all,

This clarification is regarding delivery cost LIV - where difference between:

- the amount invoiced by the freight vendor

and

- the amount accrued based on PO

is treated as unplanned delivery cost and is intended to be distributed amongst the line items of the accrued planned delivery cost.

Customizing for the company code - Configure How Unplanned Delivery Costs Are Posted - is set as "Distribute among invoice items".

When we try to post an LIV in regard to the aforesaid scenario [Tax code is with 0% tax], the system returns the following error message:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Balance is not equal to zero: 58.42 EUR

Message no. M8186

Diagnosis

You cannot post the document as the balance is 58.42 EUR.

Procedure

Check the gross invoice amount, the tax amount, the amounts in the items

selected and any unplanned delivery costs in the document header. The

items selected on the item list may not be the same as those in the

invoice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also, went through the OSS note 129066 which mentions that Unplanned delivery costs cannot be distributed to the planned delivery costs as of SAP release 4.6C.

Our system is SAP 4.7 and hence we are unable to understand the reason for this error..

Is there any enhancement relevant in this regard?

Can anyone please throw some light on this.

Best Regards,

Bhargav
