Advanced Intercompany Sales: The DAP Reality & The Hybrid Trap

Standardizing cross-border, cross-company supply chains has historically been a nightmare of custom Z-tables and complex IDoc mappings. S/4HANA definitively solves this by utilizing Valuated Stock in Transit (VSiT).

Applicable Systems: SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP S/4HANA On-Premise (Release 2022+).

[TRENCH NOTE] This standard is an absolute lifesaver for drop-ship scenarios utilizing DAP Incoterms. When a local entity sells to an end customer, but the central hub drop-ships the goods directly, ownership must transfer at the exact moment the goods arrive at the customer's door. VSiT flawlessly bridges this physical vs. financial gap.

[BS ALERT] Do not pitch this solution if you run a two-tier landscape. If your sales entity is on S/4HANA but your manufacturing hub runs on legacy SAP ECC, this process will crash and burn. Advanced Intercompany strictly mandates that both company codes operate natively within S/4HANA.
