I am searching for a solution to include a Freight Estimate for Raw Materials. Ideally a cost roll-up would work in this manner:
Cost for Material portion is pulled from Info Record Data.
Cost for Freight is a percentage of the Material Cost from above. This Freight % could be updated on a monthly basis. (KP26 perhaps?)
Standard Cost for the Raw Material would result in Material + Freight. I am working around this now by doing this calculation external of SAP, and loading into a planned price field.
Once this first part is complete, here is my hope on how the Purchase of material will transact:
Goods Receipt:
Dr Raw Materials Inventory
Cr GR/IR
Dr/Cr Raw Material Purchase Price Variance
Cr Inbound Freight
We book actual freight bills to the same Inbound Freight account, so the balance of the account is your Freight Variance from Standard.
I really would appreciate any help someone could give me on this topic.
