hello,
Let me first explain my scenario. We have a process where a third part vendor clears the custom for goods to be received and delivers quantity through Air. So they send us freight invoices(airway bill) via email. We add a new line item in same PO as service text. We do SES, GR and then invoice. The problem is that, through this process, freight cost is not distributed among material. The vendor does not sends how much quantity he has cleared in custom and sends a combined invoice for airway and custom clearance charges.
As an alternate process, we have also tried creating an condition type for customs. Vendor usually sends partial invoices. So at the time of MIRO(since we do not have a clear picture of quantity cleared in customs), we post freight invoice for partial amount and full PO quantity. Due to this there are differences in reconciliation. As per my understanding with partial amount, proportional quantity(and not the full Po quantity) should be posted. Right ?
Materials are valuated at moving average price.
As a solution, we plan continue with Service PO process and sum up all delivery costs invoices(for air transport and in a particular month) and all quantity for a particular material. Take the average and then update material price at every month end. Will this solve my problem ?
Is there anyway, system can automatically propose remaining amount every time i post a freight invoice ?
