We just implemented use of the batch master to show country of origin, in order to properly generate shipper export compliance documents. This is SAP standard approach.
In order to avoid entering the COO on every batch, we configured a material master sales field as a "multiple COO origin" indicator. The majority of materials are single source and read the country from the material master; if indicated on a material, the COO is read from the batch master which gets the COO populated during the initial receipt.
I've seen several applications listed in related threads; this basic approach should work - either populate the COO in every batch, or use our approach to minimize the effort. A plant-specific field (in table MARC) or even a basic field (in MARA) might be needed instead of the sales field depending on the specific application.
The COO on our products is easy to define. We do sell to the military but if cert's are provided, they are not from SAP. Are you referring to a percentage split between foreign vs domestic value added?

Subject: Best method for multiple country of origin
For the folks in the thread that have multiple COO's for one part, I have a few questions:
1. Are you selling your products to the military (USG)?
2. Are you doing the Buy American Act Certifications?
3. Where are you collecting your data, if not in SAP, in order to determine whether you certify as domestic or foreign?
4. Have you approached SAP on solution building to comply with these regulations? |
