Understanding Default Information for Interbranch Orders

For interbranch and intercompany orders, the system retrieves price information based on the price method that you specify in the processing options in the P4210 program. Whether you select the base price or the cost plus markup, the system retrieves the price in this way:

1. For the outbound inventory interbranch order, the system retrieves price information from the F4106 table for the supplying branch/plant based on the base price preference hierarchy.

   The base price preference hierarchy can be defined to search for prices based on the ship to or the sold to address book number.

2. The system retrieves cost information from the F4105 table based on the detail branch/plant (supplier).

3. When you create an outbound inventory intercompany order during shipment confirmation, the unit cost of the interbranch order is the unit price of the intercompany order.

You can override the currency information for the customer, which is helpful if you process international orders in different currencies. For multicurrency, this processing occurs:

• For the intercompany invoice, the system retrieves exchange rate information from the currency code that is set up in the Customer Master by Line of Business table (F03012) for the selling branch as customer and for the supplying branch/plant to the selling branch/plant sales order.

• For the interbranch (customer) invoice, the system retrieves exchange rate information from the currency code that is set up in the Customer Master for the Sold To customer for the selling branch/plant to the customer.

You can override order information, including price and cost, during order entry or you can set up preferences to override other default information.
