Freight trade plan for sales

• Freight trade plans configured for use in sales documents are fully supported for:
  • Expected cost posting
  • Costs to be invoiced
  • Actual cost posting using general ledger accounts
• When a sales order is released and posted:
  • The system automatically inserts applicable document-level freight trade lines.
  • Freight costs are posted during shipment posting, creating expected general ledger entries.
• Freight-related general ledger entries are automatically:
  • Linked to the sales shipment item ledger entry, and
  • Associated with the originating freight trade plan for traceability.
• When the related transport vendor invoice is posted:
  • The system reverses the originally posted interim general ledger entries using the exact general ledger accounts originally used, regardless of any later trade plan changes.
  • A new actual cost general ledger entry is created using the general ledger account specified in the sales invoice line.
• All freight cost postings are consistently tracked through existing:
  • Trade accrual entries, and
  • General ledger entry extension records.
