Statistical Values for Foreign Trade Processes in SAP

Use

Every item a country imports or exports must have a statistical value associated with it when it

passes through customs. The statistical value is the net domestic value (fair market value) of a

product when it crosses a border. (The fair market value is the price the product is normally sold

at in the manufacturer's domestic market.) This value is needed for each exported or imported

item for INTRASTAT and EXTRASTAT declarations in the European Community (EC). It is used

as a basis for keeping track of foreign trade statistics.

The statistical value is printed on the appropriate customs documents such as the Single

Administrative Document (SAD) in the EC, the Shipper's Export Declaration (SED) in the US, and

the export report in Japan.

The statistical value is a measure of the actual value of the goods imported or exported and does

not include the value added tax (VAT) or all of the transportation and insurance costs.

You are exporting goods to a customer in another EU member-state. The statistical

value of the goods is calculated by deducting transportation and insurance costs

from the time when the goods cross the border until when they reach the customer. If

the statistical value is 80% of the amount billed before VAT, this percentage includes

all transportation and insurance costs within your country until the goods reach the

border. The 20% difference represents the estimated transportation and insurance

costs from the border crossing point to the customer location.

The process is the same for the importer. The costs of transporting the goods as far

as the exporter‘s border are deducted before determining the statistical value.

This function automatically calculates statistical values based on condition records in Materials

Management (MM) for receipts and imports and Sales and Distribution (SD) for dispatches and

exports.

Integration

This function integrates with the calculation performed by MM’s and SD’s pricing functions. It also

provides data for import items in purchase orders and shipping notifications and for export items

in deliveries and billing documents.

R/3’s standard set-up calculates statistical values based on Incoterms. By applying standard

pricing tools, you can change the basis for the calculation and make manual changes to the

condition records.

Prerequisites

For Statistical Values in SD

• The condition type GRWR (shipped in the standard set-up) can be used or a copy must

be created in Customizing for SD. Choose Sales and Distribution → Basic Functions →

Pricing → Maintain condition index.

• Valid condition records for the relevant Incoterms clause must exist within the sales area

for the corresponding period of time.

For Statistical Values in MM

• The condition type GRWR (shipped in the standard set-up) can be used or a copy must

be created in Customizing for MM. Choose Materials Management → Purchasing →

Conditions → Define Price Determination Process → Define condition types.

• Valid condition records for the relevant Incoterms clause must exist within the purchasing

organization for the corresponding period of time.

You can maintain and create SD and MM condition records for statistical values from
the Foreign Trade Cockpit. See Foreign Trade Cockpit.
