Managing more than one sell side shipment per order release

[garofalof]

I'm working in a 3PL context and my customer need to generate 2 different sell side shipments with two different order owners and two different bill to related to the same order (EX: incoterm DAF).
Which is the standard way to model this scenario in OTM?

Any suggestion will be appreciate, thank you

Re: Managing more than one sell side shipment per order release

Hello Federico,
seems more a problem related to split in 2 parts shipment sell amount , do you try to investigate cost allocation procedure at order release level ??
Create 2 sell shipment from same order release without a real geografic need (multileg or...) n my opinion is complicated (impossibile)

Perhaps we need more detail about criteria or requirement starting from U want to crete 2 sell sh.

Re: Managing more than one sell side shipment per order release

Hi Stefano,
thanks a lot for your reply.

Maybe I can explain more details, i try to describe a case that we need to manage:

I have an order release in export from our Country. I built as many buy side shipments as many legs we have in buy itinerary.
The Incoterm we must apply to this order is DAF (Delivery at Frontier). With this Incoterm the customer (Bill-to) pays the service from the pick-up point to the custom, and our correspondent in the other Country pays from the custom to the delivery point. For this reason we need to build from the order release 2 sell side shipments based on a sell itinerary with 2 legs, one from pick-up to custom and from custom to delivery.

Now we can build 2 sell shipments in this way, calculate cost for one of these using bill-to involved party, but we don't know how to get contract for the service provider (our correspondent in this case) and calculate cost for the other shipment; moreover, how can we define a rule to apply the bill-to to the first shipment and the other role to the other one?

I think it couldn't be impossible manage an international Incoterm by this way, that is the normal way for a logistics company.

Thank you again, I really hope you can help me!
