New Interface Design for Preference Handling Functions

Scope of Functions

For Foreign Trade's "Preference Handling" component, a new initial screen was designed that provides you with quick easy-to-use access to the most important functions in this area. This initial screen can be configured to match the specific tasks of each individual user.

These tasks allow you to determine whether or not your products qualify as originating according to the rules stipulated by the trade area from which you are exporting. If your goods qualify as originating, they could qualify for preference. When you export goods that qualify for preference, you pay little or no customs duties. This increases the marketability of your products.

The initial screen is divided into the following sections:

  1. Vendor declaration
  2. Administration
  3. Master data
  4. Environment
  5. Calculation
  6. Assembly explosion
  7. Archiving
  8. Monitoring

These are described in more detail below.

Additionally, there is a text area or picture container on the initial screen for Preference Handling. In this area, you can display either a picture or a text. You can include the standard picture or a text in this screen from Customizing or by choosing Environment -> Maintain user data from the initial screen. The standard picture is SD_FT_PRE_START. You can create a standard text for display in this section with transaction SO10.

Vendor declaration

This function enables you to request necessary vendor declarations or to dun expiring vendor declarations. You have the choice of three tasks:

  • Send a letter with a list of the articles
  • Use a form recommended by the authorities
  • Interface task to fill a Microsoft Word template

Important Note: The three possibilities are not to be understood as cumulative, but rather as alternatives. The second choice creates several papers since a new form is created for each originating country. For the third choice, Microsoft Word 6.0 or greater must be installed on your system.

Administration

With these tasks, you can

  • Display vendor declarations
  • Maintain vendor declarations in the system
  • Aggregate the vendor declarations in the material master

Master data

In this section, you can maintain the master data in material master records, bills of material, purchasing info records and vendor master records for Preference Handling. In this step, all long-term vendor declaration data in the purchasing info records can be aggregated and a vendor declaration indicator assigned in the material master record. This data is then used for preference calculation.

Environment

This section provides links to the IMG to include the tables for

  • Assigning procedures and percentages to preference rules
  • Assigning preference rules to each preference zone and commodity code

Calculation

Using the bill of material (BOM), the system evaluates all the components used in an in-house produced product according to the origin to determine wehther they are originating or non- originating goods. This section enables you to perform

  • Individual and collective determination
  • Explosion of bill of material

For text purposes or for newly created BOMs, you can use the individual determination task. Due to the large number of materials that normally need to be processed, a collective determination task is also available.

Archiving

This section enables you to display a customs log directly or from the archive. It also provides an archiving management function for the preference objects.

Monitoring

This section enables you to perform a consistency check of foreign trade data in the corresponding views of the material master record. From the output display screen, you can immediately maintain any missing or incorrect data.
