Export Licenses Check

Infor LN executes a general export license check for a document. A specific search mechanism is used identify the export licenses linked to a document.

If exceptions for the document are not specified in the Export Document Exceptions (tcgtc0130m000) session, the search is based on the Document Type, Country, Sold-to Business Partner, Ship-to Business Partner, Sales Order Type, and the search date:

  • For the country, the value specified in the ship-to address field is considered.
  • For order lines, the planned delivery date is considered as the Search Date.
  • For shipment lines, the current date is considered as the search date.
Note
  • When an export exception exists, an export license search is not executed and the internal check is not executed.
  • When a license is not located, an internal check cannot be performed as the valid data is not available. A compliance check failure is logged in the Document Compliance Check Results (tcgtc1510m000) session, with a failure reason code.
Types of checks

If an export license is located, two types of checks are executed.

Quantity check:

  • For a sales order line, the ordered quantity converted to inventory unit is used.
  • For a shipment line, the quantity to be shipped (in inventory unit) is used.

Value check

  • For a sales order line, the formula (net order line amount – order discount amount – sales order amount) calculation is used.
  • For a shipment line, the value is equal to the value of the quantity to be shipped. This value is based on the commercial price on the sales order, schedule delivery line, or both. The correct material price is also specified on the shipment line.
  • Amounts are converted to the license currency using internal currency rates.
  • For shipment lines with origin other than Sales Order or Sales Schedule, the value of the quantity to be shipped must be determined, based on the commercial price of the item. Else, the customs value can be used, if applicable.
  • When the Limited Quantity check box is selected in the Export Licenses (tcgtc0120m000) session, a check is executed to ensure if the value of the shipment line based on the Limited Shipment Line Value field can be shipped. However, for this check, the value of the shipment line must be determined.
Note

If the value of the shipment line is greater than the Limited Shipment Line Value of the license, the compliance check fails. A compliance check failure is logged and the Failure Reason Code is set to Operational Issue in the Document Compliance Check Results (tcgtc1610m000) session.

Compliance Check Failure

The compliance check failure is logged if the relevant information is not specified:

  • If the value for the License Number field is not specified, a check failure occurs. Exception: When the Screening Code is set to No License Required, you are not required to specify the License Number.
  • If license data is not specified, the compliance check failure is logged with the Failure Reason Code set to Missing Master Data.
  • When the Limited Quantity Applies or Limited Quantity check box is selected in the Export Licenses (tcgtc0120m000) session, a check is executed to ensure if the specified quantity or value of the document can be shipped. If the remaining quantity or value specified on the export license that is located, is less than the quantity or value of the document, the compliance check fails. A compliance check failure is logged with the Failure Reason Code set to Operational Issue in the Global Trade Compliance Parameters (tcgtc0100m000) session.
Note

A check is also executed to validate if Item Compliance Data is available for the item and country, of the document. When item data is not available, a compliance check failure is logged with the Failure Reason Code set to Missing Item Compliance Data in the Global Trade Compliance Parameters (tcgtc0100m000) session.
