Generating freight orders from purchase orders Freight is the package that handles transportation requirements. Because Procurement is sometimes responsible for the transportation of goods and must consequently collect goods from a supplier, you can generate a freight order from the purchase order. If the transportation of goods is not the supplier's responsibility, the supplier must know on what date the goods must be ready. Therefore, you must consider the planned load date in the purchase order as the shipment date; when to pick up the goods from the supplier. The integration between Freight and Procurement includes these topics: Integration freight order control and procurement During the planning and execution of a freight order, its status often changes. If Procurement is responsible for creating the freight order, the progress of the shipment and loads can be exchanged and information can be shared between Freight and Procurement. Integration freight invoicing and purchase invoicing The freight rate that you must pay to the carrier, is called freight costs. You can invoice your business partner for the freight costs based on: Costi di trasporto Costi di trasporto (aggiorn. consentito) Tariffe cliente Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare: Integrazione di Controllo ordini di trasporto e Approvvigionamento Integrazione di fatturazione del trasporto e fatturazione degli acquisti Generating purchase orders from work orders or service orders With Depot Repair and Field Service you can maintain, repair, or upgrade parts. An integration is available between Assistenza and Approvvigionamento to buy parts or to subcontract the maintenance, repair or upgrade. The following depot repair and field service processes are supported: Purchasing additional parts Purchasing subcontracting activities In both cases, a purchase order must be generated to buy parts or to procure subcontracting. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare: Acquisto di parti aggiuntive Assistenza in conto lavoro in Approvvigionamento Handling backorders If only a part of the goods or none of the goods listed on a purchase order are received, backorders can be created. The following can result in a backorder: The received quantity of the purchase order line is less than the ordered quantity at the time of delivery date. The received quantity of the goods is (partially) rejected during inspection. The received quantity is equal to the ordered quantity, but the user changes the back order quantity from zero into a higher value. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Ordini di acquisto a saldo. Handling return orders A return order is a purchase order on which returned shipments are reported. A return order can include only negative amounts. With a purchase return order, you can return inventory units ( Reso scorte), or rejected goods ( Reso merci rifiutate) to the supplier. Purchase orders of the Reso merci rifiutate order type are always generated from Magazzino to return quarantine inventory. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Ordini di reso di acquisto. Material prices on purchase orders If the Determinazione dei prezzi dei materiali in Approvvigionamento check box is selected in the Parametri prezzi materiali (tcmpr0100m000) session, after setting up the material pricing master data, LN can retrieve material price information and calculate material prices for a purchase order line. Linked material price information can be viewed in the Informazioni su prezzi materiali (tcmpr1600m000) session. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Informazioni sul prezzo dei materiali - ordini di acquisto. Printing claims Occasionally, during the receipt process, the quantity received does not match with the packing slip quantity. If suppliers ship less than what is on their packing slip, a claim note can be printed in the Stampa reclami (tdpur4420m000) session. Printing purchase invoices An optional step in the purchase order procedure is to print purchase invoices in the Stampa fatture di acquisto (tdpur4404m000) session. These invoices are used to compare the data in your system with the data (invoices) you get from the buy-from business partner. Printing reminders You can use the Stampa solleciti a ordini di acquisto (tdpur4403m000) session to print a reminder to advise a business partner of undelivered purchase orders. Project pegging Project costs can be pegged to purchase orders. If the item on the purchase order requires a peg, a peg distribution must be linked to the purchase order. In a peg distribution, the required quantity of the parent business object is distributed across distribution lines for combinations of project/budget, project element and/or project activity. For example, if a distribution is used to peg the ordered quantity on a purchase order line, the goods are purchased for and the costs are booked to these projects, elements, and activities.

Specifying direct delivery orders On a sales order or service order, you can indicate whether you want the sold goods to be directly delivered. In case of a direct delivery, a sales order or service order results in a purchase order. Because the buy-from business partner delivers the goods directly to the sold-to business partner, Magazzino is not involved. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare: Ordini di vendita con consegna diretta Ordini di assistenza con consegna diretta Specifying supplier stage payments Supplier stage payments enable customers to pay suppliers before or after the ordered goods are actually received for a purchase order. The payments are spread over a period of time and the amounts must be paid to the supplier on specific dates. The purchase order item's invoice flow is separated from its goods flow. Supplier stage payments can be useful for items with characteristics such as long lead, high value, much engineering, and a fixed price. The stage payments can include the dates and events for which the supplier must complete specific tasks before receipt of any goods, such as providing design documents or test results.

Static cross-docking If you want to fulfill an existing sales order for which no inventory is available, you can take inbound goods immediately from the receipt location to the staging location for issue. To initiate this process, you must generate a cross-docking order. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Cross-dock statico. Subcontracting In Approvvigionamento, various purchase documents for subcontracting can be created. To start the subcontracting process, a purchase order is required. These types of subcontracting are available: Operation subcontracting Item subcontracting Unplanned subcontracting Service subcontracting Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Conto lavoro in Approvvigionamento. Using consigned inventory If you want to use consigned inventory in the purchase order procedure, you can specify how consigned inventory is handled. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Conto deposito in Vendite e Approvvigionamento. Using customer furnished materials To enable customers or their suppliers to furnish the materials that are required to produce a specific customer item, you can implement Materiali forniti dal cliente. Based on the demand from a sales order, a purchase order of the Materiali forniti dal cliente type is generated by the order plan. This purchase order is used to call off the customer furnished materials that are needed by the production order to produce the customer item. The purchase order inherits the demand peg of the demand order. Per ulteriori informazioni, consultare Materiali forniti dal cliente in Vendite e Approvvigionamento.
