Sales Offices (tdsls0512m000)

Use this session to create, view, and maintain sales offices.

The default information affects the creation of:

Note

A default sales office can be assigned to a sold-to business partner. When you enter a sales order, sales schedule, quotation, or contract, LN retrieves the sales office from the user profile (sales). This value can be changed. Subsequently, LN checks whether the entered business partner/sales office combination exists in the business partner data. If the combination cannot be found, LN searches for the business partner (with a blank sales office) and uses that information for the order defaults.

 

Sales Office

The code identifying the department.

The department is also entered in the Departments (tcmcs0565m000) session with the Department Type set to Sales Office.

Address

A full set of address-related details, which include the postal address, access to telephone, fax, telex numbers, and email, Internet address, identification for taxation purposes, and routing information.

City

The department's city.

Calendar

You can select a calendar for use by the department.

Default value

By default LN uses the central calendar defined for the company's address in the Addresses (tccom4530m000) session.

Extra Intrastat Info

The default Extra Intrastat Info set for warehouse orders created by the sales office.

If you link a warehouse to the sales office, the extra Intrastat information set is the default extra Intrastat information set for orders created by the office. You can change the extra Intrastat information set on the warehouse order lines.

Labor Rate Code

The labor rate is used to determine the intercompany price for hours spent on fulfilling an order or project.

Enterprise Unit

A financially independent part of your organization that consists of entities such as departments, work centers, warehouses, and projects. The enterprise unit's entities must all belong to the same logistic company, but a logistic company can contain multiple enterprise units. An enterprise unit is linked to a single financial company.

When you carry out logistic transactions between enterprise units, these are posted in the financial companies to which each enterprise unit is linked. You can define intercompany trade relationships between enterprise units to determine the terms for internal trade between these units. To use invoicing and pricing between enterprise units, you must link the enterprise units to internal business partners.

You can use enterprise units to do separate financial accounting for parts of your business. For example, you can define enterprise units for separate parts of your organization that belong to one logistic company, but that are located in different countries. The accounting of each enterprise unit is performed in each country's national currency, and in the financial company linked to the enterprise unit.

Note

The enterprise unit is displayed to inform a user to which financial company a sales order is posted.

Operational Company

The operational company to which the department belongs.

Financial Company

The financial company to which the department belongs.

This is the financial company to which the department's enterprise unit is linked. Transactions created by the department are posted to this financial company.

Warehouse

The default warehouse that is linked to the sales office.

Note

LN automatically loads the warehouse in a sales order from the ship-to business partner. If no warehouse is related to the ship-to business partner, the warehouse defined in the user profile is used instead. When you define the user profile, the warehouse is defaulted from the sales office.

You must first define the default ship-from warehouse in the Warehouses (tcmcs0503m000) session.
