Capture bottle fee in Purchase order

[Former Member]

Hi,

I got a requirement to capture bottle fee in Purchase order. For example if you are buying coke or pepsi from the vendor we need to pay bottle fee along with the price. Can some one please let me know how to capture this.

Thanks

Hi,

I am not sure about your requirement but you can chive this by two way

1) If you want go with single material code then you can create new condition type as price for bottle

2) Or create new Material code as suggested in forum

Hi,

Appreciate your answers. I definitely want to approach creating new condition type. Should I create a new condition type as surcharge and how to track the amount for that condition type.

Any information is helpful.

Thanks

In standard SAP, we have various packaing material types available.

VERP - for packaing materials like boxes, cartons and pallets. It has both value and qty update so it can be valuated and inventorized

LEIH - for returnable packing materials to vendor which is not valuated as these stocks have to returned to vendor

LEER - returnable packaing materials but has both qty and value update. I suggest you to use this material type for the bottles and create PO with 2 line items for the liquid and bottle.

but again you can't track both bottle and liquid together because both the materials are different. for this you may use split valuation and create the material as pepsi but with two valuation type bottle and liquid with different prices. so in the PO you enter two line item with same material but with valuation type bottle and liquid. it helps you to track the inventory of bottle and liquid together.

Hi,

As I understand -you are buying coke or pepsi from the vendor  and want to capture and  pay bottle fee and to be tracked.

Follow the steps:

1.Create two material type: ZCOL- Cool Drinks ( copy from ROH),and ZBOT- Bottle ( copy from ROH) and have have external number range for both material types.Keep quantity and value update indicator for for both material types

2. Create materials with material type ZCOL, for example materials: PEPSI250ML,PEPSI600ML,PEPSI1000ML, PEPSI2000ML,PEPS2500ML,COKE250ML,COKE600ML,

COKE1000ML,COKE2000ML,COKE2500ML

3. Create materials with material type BOT, for example materials: B250ML,B600ML,B1000ML,B2000ML and B2500ML

4. Now create purchase order lets say ordering pepsi 250 ml bottles for 10000 numbers, then have two line items in Purchase order , for 1st line items, have cool drinks only by entering material number as PEPSI250ML and 10000 numbers. For 2nd line  item, enter bottle material number as B250ML and enter quantities 10000 numbers and save the purchase order.
