„The Foreign
Trade Cockpit gives you central access to all foreign trade functions in your SAP
System. The cockpit is divided into several sections such as processing, periodic declarations, legal
control and data service.
„The cockpit
brings together all the necessary tools for each section, so that you can process and
monitor operative business transactions. You can also maintain master data directly from the
cockpit. You can also access the most important Customizing functions directly from the Cockpit.
These Customizing functions are also supported by step-by-step interactive processing guides
(Wizards).
„The completeness
and consistency of the data in your system is very important for processing
business transactions. Therefore, the cockpit contains reports for monitoring data in documents,
master records and entries in Customizing.
„The data
service cockpit reduces the amount of maintenance for all areas of foreign trade. You can
import data from external sources into your SAP System or run comparisons between your data and
that of a data provider (see also Data Service).
„Reports
with flexible selection options compile journals, lists and statistics for your foreign trade
data. You can save your selection parameters as variants so that you can run these reports regularly
in the same format. The ABAP List Viewer (ALV) functions are available for further processing of
the lists.
„You
can even maintain user data to achieve a user-specific setup in the cockpit.

and up-to-date.
„You
can maintain and monitor the master data directly from the cockpit. Functions for importing
master data from external sources and merging data are available in the Data service cockpit (for
more information, refer to the Data Service unit).
„Customizing supports
foreign trade processing with default values for objects such as import code
numbers, customs procedures and business transaction types. You can go from the cockpit directly to
maintenance transactions for the more important settings in Customizing tables. You can use the
General processing - Foreign Trade cockpit to maintain import code numbers, countries and
currencies. Use the Data service cockpit to import data for commodity codes, import code numbers
and customs duty rates.
„The cockpit
has step-by-step interactive process guides (Wizards) available for important
Customizing settings. Significant basic settings in Customizing for foreign trade can be made using
the wizard in the Periodic declarations cockpit.

„Option

For export processing in SD, you can use the route as the main carrier for export-related information.
„Option
2:
You can use Customizing (Default foreign-trade header data) to determine the foreign trade header
data for the business transaction depending on the goods direction, the country of departure and the
country of destination.
„Option
3:
You can use the SAP extension V50EPROP to define your own enhancement project (transaction
CMOD) and use the function module exits there to define the default data:
•
Function module exit EXIT_SAPLV50E_001 for export header data
•
Function module exit EXIT_SAPLV50E_002 for import header data
„As
it determines data, the SAP System proceeds in the following order: First, data from the route is
determined. The foreign trade header data in Customizing is then added. (Note that this data does not
replace any data.) Finally, user enhancements that both replace and add to existing data are
interpreted.

systematic, internationally standardized description of goods has been based on the Harmonized
Schedule (HS) for numerical classification and identification of goods since 1988. This method is
useful for evaluation or summarization purposes. This system took the place of various other systems

significant standardization in this area.

„The HS
assigns each good a code number, which you can store in the SAP System as the commodity
code. As you calculate duties, you can then assign the commodity codes/code numbers to the
individual goods in the material master record.
„In
addition, you can save commodity code texts in the system. This text is then issued when you
create declarations or print export documents.
„For
some declarations to authorities such as the intra-European Union trade statistics, certain goods
must be declared in certain set units of measurement. Therefore, a special unit of measurement that
was stipulated for a certain commodity code is defined for that commodity code.

„Within the European

every exported or imported item, especially if you submit monthly notifications to the INTRASTAT,
EXTRASTAT or KOBRA, for example. The authorities in your country use this information to
create statistics about foreign trade.
„The statistical
value can also be used for customs declarations and must be printed in the export
documents. Import- and export processing can then take place on the basis of the statistical value.
This applies to the following export documents:

„The system uses the condition
records for condition types GRWR and GWLB (subcontracting) to
determine statistical values in pricing in the SD billing documents and MM orders.
In SD, the condition records are created for each relevant Incoterm clause within a sales area. In
MM, they are created for each relevant Incoterm clause within a plant or purchasing organization.

Basic Data: Summary
z Correct and complete maintenance of the relevant
master data is very important, especially in foreign
trade, since not every department has the necessary
knowledge and information in this specialized area.
z The information necessary for processing export and
import business transactions is assigned to different
master data records.

 SAP AG 1999
„The Sales
and Distribution (SD) copying control for billing documents allows you to use three
different procedures for determining export data in the billing document:
„Option 1:
The export data in the delivery is referenced. Delivery and billing document data is stored in the
same data record. If you change data in the billing document, this change is also reflected in the
delivery data.
„Option 2:
The export data in the delivery is copied into the billing document. Two separate but identical data
records are created for the delivery and the billing document. Changes in the billing document do not
affect the data in the delivery.
„Option 3:
The export data is redetermined for the billing document (completely independent of the delivery).
The data records are separate and therefore may contain varying information. This option is
especially useful in cases where several deliveries with different export data are to be included in one
billing document. Redeterming the data in the billing documents lets you avoid splitting the billing
document into separate data for each of the deliveries it includes.

Exercises
Documents in Foreign Trade
You have familiarized yourself with the master data relevant for foreign
trade in the previous unit. Now, you want to analyze the corresponding
data in the purchasing documents and the sales and distribution
documents.
You can use the General Foreign Trade Processing Cockpit to create
new documents, or monitor and maintain existing documents centrally.
In this unit, we will be working through two major processes:
•
Import from an EU country into Germany
Purchase order
- Goods receipt
- Invoice
•
- Export from Germany into an EU country
- Order
- Outbound delivery
- Goods issue
- Billing document

Import Basis Module: Summary
z Correct and complete maintenance of the relevant
master data is important. This is especially true for
the import area, since documents such as
verification documents and customs declarations
can only be issued accurately if the data they are
based on is also accurate.
z Careful planning in the import area should be
accompanied by the step-by-step introduction of
new EDIFACT-based procedures.

Process overview for uploading customs data:
The uploading process is performed in the following steps:
„ A
data provider or authority normally makes customs data available to you at regular intervals.
This data must be in syntactically correct IDoc format.
„ Following inbound
processing of the IDoc, the data can be processed further either automatically in
the background or in the foreground, depending on the system settings.
„ For
foreground processing in dialog mode, the person responsible receives an e-mail message
(optional) informing him or her that this IDoc has arrived.
„ This
person can now select the corresponding IDocs and then choose the foreign-trade data that he
or she finds relevant from a worklist. After checking this data, this person can transfer it into the
system.
„ If
the system discovers inconsistent data, it either creates an error message or rejects the inbound
IDoc.

„ If
the customs data is to be processed in the foreground, a dialog-oriented processing function
appears once the IDoc has been processed initially. If the foreground processing option was
chosen, the system automatically creates a worklist from the IDoc that was received.
„ For
foreground processing in dialog mode, the person responsible receives an e-mail message
(optional) informing him or her that this IDoc has arrived.
„ Now,
this person can use the Import customs objects function in the Data Service Cockpit to select
the corresponding IDocs.

data can also be checked for consistency before being transferred to the corresponding Customizing

function allows you to select specific basic data and customs data for a particular country and
several languages.

1 – n IDocs are created that provide the operative systems with information based on the
ALE distribution model. Inbound processing can then be carried out in the operative systems either
in the foreground or in the background, as described above.

Within the SD process chain there are three different scenarios:
„Scenario
1: The F5 pro forma invoice is based on the SD order. This scenario is only recommended
if there is reliable order data and the settings for foreign trade have been correctly determined.
„Scenario
2: The F8 pro forma invoice is based on the SD delivery document and can be created once
all the shipping steps have been completed. The advantage of this scenario is that correct and
complete export data is available at the time of processing.
„Scenario
3: You can also use export billing documents (F2) that have already been forwarded to
financial accounting as the basis for setting up IDocs. However, there are limitations on which data

„The aim of
the legal control is to determine whether the export is generally allowed (embargo,
sanctioned party list) and whether any export licenses are necessary (and if so, how many). This
determination depends on:
y
Export’s country of departure
y
Goods to be exported
y
Export’s country of destination

y
Export date
„In
the event that a business transaction requires a license, the system tries to automatically determine
all necessary export licenses and classify the document item.
„The document item can
be processed further if this classification is successful. Otherwise, it will be
blocked.
„The deciding partner for
the check is the ship-to party, whose homeland determines the country of
destination for the export.
„The crucial
date for the check is the requested delivery date in the sales order (as of 4.6C, this is the
date of the first confirmed schedule line) and the goods-issue date in the delivery.

Section A is divided into three subsections:
„Define
all basic legal regulations that should be recognized in the system. A basic legal regulation
represents the corresponding export law of a particular country.
„You
must activate the legal regulation so that the system knows which legal regulations need to be
inspected for exports from the different countries of departure.
„The system carries
out a complete legal control for exports from this country for each active legal
regulation. If the check is not successful for even one legal regulation, the document item is blocked.
„Each
legal regulation recognizes different types of export licenses, which have various attributes. For
example, there are export licenses that are only valid up to a certain amount, while others are only
valid for particular customers or export control classes, and so on.
You can define the various different types of licenses which may be used in your firm here.
„The settings
that you make here control the license master record, and also the scope of check of the
legal controls in SD documents.

Section B is also divided into three subsections:
„First, the
general export control situation of the country of destination for an export process should
be determined. In the event that a country is subject to a UN embargo, this must be taken into
account here. The SAP System blocks exports to countries that have been identified as embargo
countries.
„Then,
product classification is carried out. A license type is to be stored depending on:
y
Country of destination
y
Legal regulation that is to be checked
y
Grouping used in the material master record for the goods that are to be exported
y
Validity period
During the legal control, the system determines the type of export license that was assigned here and
looks for an appropriate license of that type in the license master.
„It
is possible to classify a combination of country of destination, legal regulation, grouping and
validity date into more than one license type, resulting in a cascade. In this case, the system then
takes the first license type and tries to find a suitable license. If there are no licenses of that type
available in the system, it tries to find a license for the second license type, and so on.

„Finally,
you can classify the destination countries:
„Every legal
requirement divides countries according to different Country lists or Country groups.
Belonging to a particular country group means that there may be additional requirements and
editions to be taken into account when exporting goods.
„Both
in the product and country groups, a user exit is stored for each entry which can be used, if
necessary, for further checks using the standard.
„All
the Customizing entries in section B are linked to the date, and are therefore only valid for a
particular period of time. Therefore those stipulations and requirements of the legal control which
may change over time may be taken into account, as the system always uses the entry which has a
date that corresponds to the export date.

Section C consists of three subsections:
„First,
define the export control classes that are relevant for your materials. For example, in Germany,
the listed goods from the International List (Ausfuhrliste) are to be stored with their International List
numbers (Ausfuhrlistennummer); in the USA, the ECC Numbers must be indicated and in Japan the
coding from Cargo List 1 and Cargo List 2 must be given.
„Determine the
groupings required. You can choose any groupings you like. The groupings have two
different functions:
y
They should summarize the different export control classes, which are to be treated identically by
export law. The subsequent determination of export licenses has two levels. The first level is
based on the grouping and the second on the export control class.
y
Groupings should also make it possible to differentiate between two materials that have the same
export control class but should be processed differently, according to export law.
„Finally,
determine the permitted combinations of export control classes and groupings. The
combination, which is marked as a default, will be copied automatically during maintenance of the
material master record as soon as the export control class has been entered.

„The automatic
determination of export licenses takes place in two stages:
y
In the first stage, a suitable type of export license is determined for each legal regulation that is to
be checked using:
- Departure country
- Goods to be exported
- Country of destination
- Entries in sections A, B and C
y
The grouping is particularly relevant here.
„The type
of license the system found also determines the scope of the checks that are carried out in
the second stage of license assignment.
„In
the second stage, the system looks for a license of the type which was found to be required in
stage 1 and also satisfies all of the other check criteria.
„If
the result of the check is positive, the licenses that were determined are assigned to the order item
and the item can be processed further.
„If
the result of the check is negative, the order item is blocked to prevent further processing. This
block is made by setting the system status FTC5 at item level.

„The aim
of such a payment guarantee is to achieve a far-reaching reduction in risks for receivables
due from customers.
„In
addition to using credit management, there are several different forms of guarantee in the business
processes, such as financial documents (letters of credit, collections), export credit insurance
(external interface) and payment cards.
„These
various forms differ from each other in their degree of security, their validity period, and their
associated requirements for vendors and customers and are integrated for guarantee purposes into the
Risk management instrument.
„Generally,
on the first level, you would try to use a corresponding form of guarantee (financial
document - letter of credit) to achieve optimum risk minimization.
„If
this is not possible, risk minimization can be achieved in the second step by using credit
management to set up a credit framework.
„Note:
The use of a corresponding form of guarantee strongly depends on the form of business. Therefore,
financial documents are mainly used for high-volume foreign trade transactions, whereas the use of
payment cards, for example, is of greater importance for trade.

A possible business process with documentary payments can be illustrated as follows:
1. A purchase contract is created. Importer and exporter exchange purchase order information and order
confirmation information. These documents contain the conditions for the sale of the goods.
2. In accordance with the exporter’s conditions, the importer opens a letter of credit at the bank of his or
her choice. The exporter’s order confirmation is the basis for the letter of credit.
3. After approval of the credit inquiry, the opening bank can contact a branch or subsidiary, the
advising bank, in the exporter’s country, to set up a letter of credit commissioned by the importer for
the exporter.
4.-5. The exporter recognizes the importer’s ability to pay on receiving the letter of credit and delivers
the goods in accordance with the conditions agreed upon in the letter of credit.
6. 7. The exporter receives the shipping documents and presents them, along with the valid letter of
credit, to the advising bank. The bank checks the documents for deviations and pays the exporter the
agreed amount.
8. The documents are forwarded to the opening bank in exchange for the payment.
9. The opening bank demands payment from the importer according to the set conditions. The importer
receives the shipping documents in exchange for the payment.
10. The importer can only take possession of the goods when he or she receives the shipping
documents.

Automatic determination of payment guarantee procedures is controlled by two
parameters in the Documentary Payments section of the Implementation Guide
(IMG):
Sales and Distribution o Foreign Trade/Customso Documentary Payments o
Risk Management for Financial Documents o Define and Assign Payment
Guarantee Schemas
The two parameters are
-
Customer determination schema
Document determination schema
First, define customer determination schemas and document determination
schemas. In this case, use customer determination schema 0001 – Finance
documents and document determination schema 01 – Standard.
Then, assign the document determination schema 01 to order type OR – Standard
order.
Now, you must define which payment guarantee procedure should be determined
for a certain combination of customer determination schema and document
determination schema.
Here, the system determines payment guarantee procedure 000001 – Letter of
credit for the combination of customer determination schema 0001 and document
determination schema 01.
If a standard order is now created for a customer who has customer determination
schema 0001 in their customer master, the system determines payment guarantee
procedure 000001.

can create periodic declarations in the operations section of the screen. You can create
declarations in three steps, which can also be automated by using variants.
If business transactions that cannot be reflected with documents in the system occur in your
company, you can use individual maintenance of data records to create declarations. You can also
use the individual maintenance function to change existing data records.
After periodic declarations have been filed, they can be archived. The system also supports the
creation of a goods catalog.
„The monitoring function
ensures that all the data necessary for the declarations is maintained in the
material master. You can complete master records directly from the monitoring function.

Option:

 SAP AG 1999
Creating periodic declarations involves a three-step procedure:
„In
the first step, you select the document data that you want to include in the declaration. The data
that you select is stored in an intermediate database that is specifically for this declaration. You can
use individual maintenance to change data or add data to the data records in this intermediate
database (next page).
The incompleteness log and the list of open business transactions (billing documents that have not
yet been forwarded to accounting) are interactive options that allow you to reprocess incomplete
documents.
„In
the second step, the data is used to create a file in a format specific to the country in question.
„In
the third step, the file version that is to be saved to disk and sent to the authorities is generated.
•
The processes and selection parameters in these three steps can be saved as variants and then
called up again at any time.
•
The declaration process in Japan differs from the process illustrated here (for more details, refer
to the slide at the end of this unit).

„The log of incomplete items
for periodic declarations lets you monitor and maintain data
conveniently. You can process this log online (adding necessary data from the log view).
Information about which data is missing is aggregated on various levels. This allows the log to
remain transparent even when large volumes of data are involved. It also lets you avoid redundant
reprocessing of missing data. You can also maintain and correct Customizing settings right on the
log screen. This log should be refreshed before the file version is created (step 2).
„You
can use Customizing to control the scope of the log of incomplete items that is created for the
corresponding selection report.

„Data for
periodic declarations is selected from documents used in the Materials Management process
and the Sales and Distribution process.
„In
the Materials Management document chain, both goods receipt and receipt of invoices trigger data
selection. The system uses the vendor’s invoice as the basis for determining values. If the invoice has
not yet been received, the declaration occurs in the following month. If, in the following month, an
invoice has still not been received, it is possible to use the values from the purchase order.
As of Release 4.6C, you can create a declaration based exclusively on the vendor’s invoice. This
method is especially advantageous in countries like Italy and France, where tax declarations and
statistical declarations are linked (recommended Customizing activity: Data Selection Control/table
T609IS).
The Materials Management component supports INTRASTAT and EXTRASTAT declarations.
In Sales and Distribution, data selection occurs solely on the basis of billing documents. This
influences SED, AERP and HMF declarations as well as INTRASTAT, EXTRASTAT, VAR, and
KOBRA declarations.
„You
can set the country key (numerical or alphanumerical/ISO code) the system should use for the
declaration by using the Data Selection Control (table T609IS) activity in Customizing. Note: As of
January 1, 2000, you must include the ISO code in INTRASTAT/EXTRASTAT declarations.
„You
can use the inclusion and exclusion indicators at header and item level to exclude items or entire
documents from the declaration. You can also use activities in Sales and Distribution (SD)
Customizing to set exclusion indicators for item categories. As of Release 4.6C, you can use the two
user enhancements available in SAP’s FTGOVSEL extension to influence data selection and creation
of an intermediate database. These two user enhancements replace the six outdated enhancements for
periodic declarations.

What is Preference?
 SAP AG 1999
preference is an instrument of trade that has a high degree of economic importance for
both the importing and exporting country.
„Customs
preference in export translates to favorable customs duty rates or customs exemption for
an importer in a third country (non-EEA state). Consistent application of customs preferences can
therefore result in a marked improvement in competition.
„Customs
„Goods
imported into the EU by several non-EU countries enjoy preferential treatment. This means
that the import customs duty rate is reduced from the normal third-country customs duty rate or
exempted completely. In return, many non-EU countries extend similar preferential treatment to EU
products.

„In
order for pricing to find the valid condition record, whose key contains the preference zone of the

„Preference
determination determines the origin of products produced in-house. Using a bill of
materials, the system rates all components used to make in-house products as either originating or
non-originating in your country, depending on their origin. Preference determination can be carried
out in individual determination for a certain material or as a collective determination for a group of
materials.
„The bill of
materials is the basis for preference determination. The bill of materials must be
exploded. As it is exploded, the program can access all components so that it can carry out
preference determination. When you use the bill of material explosion - top-down explosion
method, note the following:
y
The bill of materials is always exploded to multiple levels.
y
Externally procured components are not exploded further, even if a bill of materials is assigned to
them. This especially affects assemblies that can be either produced in-house or externally
procured. If a special procurement key is assigned to this component in the material master, the
procurement type is determined via this key and the explosion is controlled accordingly. If this
material has no special procurement key allocated to it, these components are taken to be
externally procured and are not exploded further in spite of the bill of materials.
y
If one of the components in an assembly has multiple bills of materials, the relevant bill of
materials is selected according to the quantity of the component in the assembly and then
exploded.
„When all
bills of materials have been exploded, all bill-of-material items are displayed. If errors
occur, processing is terminated and the system issues an informational message.
