Landed costs – advance shipment noticesThis topic explains how landed costs are used in combination with advance shipment notices. ASN-header ASNs are created in the Shipment Notice (whinh3600m000) session. The ASN-header can contain only landed cost lines for which the Calculation Method field is Fixed Amount and the Fixed Amount Level is Shipment Notice or Receipt Header. When an ASN-header is created, the fixed amount is copied from the first purchase order that is linked to the ASN. If the ASN is created for a purchase schedule, ASN-header landed costs are retrieved from the landed costs master data when the first ASN-line is linked to a purchase push schedule or to a purchase pull schedule line. The landed costs can be a fixed amount per shipment notice header or a fixed amount per receipt header and must belong to a landed costs set for which the Used for field is Schedule or Schedule and Order Line. The landed costs are stored in the Landed Cost Lines (tclct2100m000) session, which is linked to the ASN-header in the Shipment Notice (whinh3600m000) session. ASN-lines When ASN-lines are created, the header landed costs are divided over the lines. Because the ASN-header can contain only landed cost lines for which the Calculation Method field is Fixed Amount and the Fixed Amount Level is Shipment Notice or Receipt Header, the header landed costs are always apportioned to the ASN-lines and cannot be synchronized with the lines. For more information, refer to Landed costs – fixed amounts. After apportioning, the landed costs are stored in the Landed Cost Lines (tclct2100m000) session, which is linked to the ASN-line in the Shipment Notice Lines (whinh3101m000) session. In addition to the apportioned header-based fixed amounts, these landed costs are also linked to an ASN-line:
Note In theory, multiple purchase orders or schedules can have multiple fixed amounts by shipment notice. These purchase orders/schedules can be linked to the same ASN. However, only one purchase order/schedule (line) can determine the fixed amount by Shipment Notice or Receipt Header to be created. Therefore, the first purchase order/schedule (line) that is linked to an ASN determines the fixed amount. Other orders/schedules are ignored. Apportioning ASN-header landed costs to ASN-lines Apportioning of fixed header landed costs to the lines takes place only when:
In the apportioning process, the ASN-lines for non-warehouse orders, such as direct deliveries, project receipts, cost item receipts are also taken into account. However, unexpected ASN-lines, which have no linked inbound order line, are skipped in the apportioning process because these lines cannot have landed costs. Receiving ASNs by means of EDI When a revised ASN message is received, the previous ASN obtains the Replaced status and a new ASN is created with the Scheduled status. When a canceled ASN message is received, the ASN status becomes Canceled. For a revised ASN, landed cost lines are handled as follows:
Maintaining landed cost lines for ASNs You can use the Landed Cost Lines by Shipment Notice (tclct2100m200) session to manually change, add, cancel, or delete landed cost lines. Landed cost lines can be maintained only if the following are applicable to the ASN-level:
If you change or cancel landed cost lines in the Landed Cost Lines by Shipment Notice (tclct2100m200) session and on the appropriate menu you click Apply to all, the changes made to the line are also processed to all other lines of the ASN with the same combination of Landed Costs Code, Type, and Buy-from Business Partner. If you add a new landed cost line, you can automatically add this landed cost line to all other ASN-lines for which the landed cost line is not linked yet and, therefore, for which the combination of Landed Costs Code, Type, and Buy-from Business Partner does not exist. Note Line landed costs with fixed amount level Shipment Notice or Receipt Header can be changed only on ASN-header level.
