DEBIT MEMO to be raised on the transporter

[Former Member]

Hi Sir/Madam,

My client requirement is in such a way that the goods from vendor are completely handed to the third party after through verification done with PO and from then the third party will be completely responsible for the the goods till it reaches the client place(This is according to there agreements).The difference in goods deficit if any is received by the client then a debit note is to raised on the transporter rather than the vendor,is this possible automatically in SAP.If at all it is possible. Please give in detail explanation.

Thanks in Advance,

Why is the difference in quantity debited from Transporter's Account (acceptable if it is damaged during transportation)? How will the system identify the stock is not shipped from the Vendor and damaged during transportation?

In either case this process cannot be automated to be posted to Transporter's account. The reason is, there is no linkage between the qty being shipped and the liability of the transported.

Hi manoj

There is link between quantity being shipped and transporter because according to the purchase agreements the vendor is liable till his factory gate to the transporter and from there transporter is liable for any deficit in goods so,the debit note is to raised on transporter.

creating transporter as one vendor doesn't solve my issue because automatically raising debit note on him is the requirement.

Thanks & Regards,

hi ,

SO the tird party is nothing but the transporter ,

in this case Debit memo can be raised using enhancement , but what if the material is still to be inspected in quality ,

at what stage you need the Debit memo to be created ?

it is always better to create the debit memo manually as you can also be handeling the multiple deliveries for same PO item , So in case of multi GR this case wont work ,

HI Narin,

I understood the Point that the Transporter is liable once the goods are shipped from the Third Party Vendor's location in the initial thread itself. But my question is not that, it is how the system identifies if the Goods are in the location of the Third Party Vendor or that the goods are with the transporting vendor in transit? And to which Vendor the Debit Note is to be raised.

The complexity of your issue is the questions which I have asked, if there is a logic through which the system determines the present location of the stock, then a debit note can be posted for that stock against the Transporting Vendor. But then even in the case of posting the debit note a development has to be done in a proper way to identify the Transporting Vendor and to create a Debit Note for the Balance Quantity.

To summarize this cannot be achieved without a complex development, so best suggestion is to post the Debit Note manually.

Hi

This is case after the quality inspected and there are multi GR and each time the price difference should be raised on transporter only
