This article introduces the relevant knowledge of "what are the functions related to shipping in SAP orders". In the operation of actual cases, many people will encounter such a dilemma, so let the editor lead you to learn how to deal with these situations. I hope you can read it carefully and be able to achieve something!

First, the shipping point determines the Shipping Point Determination

Each order line item will determine that a shipping point; system will automatically bring out a shipping point, which you can modify within a limited range.

Shipping point depends on a combination of three elements: delivery plant/shipping condition/loading group.

1) the delivering plant determined by each order line item (from customer-material information record, ship-to party record, or material master record).

2) Shipping requirements (for example, express delivery) is included in the shipping conditions field. If a shipping condition is assigned to the sales document type, the shipping condition is taken out of the sales voucher type, otherwise, from the master record of the sold-to party.

3) the necessary loading facilities (loading group) are included in the Loading Group field of the material master record

The following configuration implements the determination of shipping point

An outbound deliver is always handled by a shipping point, and business people cannot modify the shipping point in the outbound delivery. As shown in the following figure, shipping point appears in the header data of the delivery order

When an order is delivered by shipping point, only the order line items defined for that shipping point are copied to outbound delivery, so order items with different shipping point will not copy to the same outbound delivery.

Second, route definition Route Definition

Route defines the route of delivery as well as other factors, such as the mode of transportation and the transport service agent. A route can consist of many stages, one of which can be a leg, a load transfer point, or a border-crossing point. We must define legs and the start and end points of load transfer points and border-crossing points as transport connection points (transportation connection point). We can define any location as a transport connection point, of course, we can also refer to customers, suppliers, or special organizational units such as shipping point or plant.

For shipping purposes, it may be sufficient to use a routes that is not made up of stages, in which case we can use the destination area as the name of the route; but we should specify the transit and transportation lead times because the time is used to make the transportation plan.

Route can be used as the selection criteria for delivering process (selection criterion). In SAP systems, route is also necessary for transportation and foreign trade, in which case we may need to maintain additional data.

Third, the route determines the Route Determination

The route decision is performed on the order line item and depends on:

Country and departure region (departure zone) of Shipping point (assigned in configuration)

Shipping condition defined in Sales document type or entered in sold-to party

Transportation group assigned to the material

Country and shipping region (transportation zone) of Ship-to party (assigned in customer master record)

For the configuration of Route Determination, the following path

The business staff can manually modify the route decided in the order line item.

Business people can redecide route in outbound delivery based on weight (weight), and whether or not route depends on the configuration of delivery type. In the configuration interface of the relevant delivery type, the field 'Route Determine.' To determine whether the business staff can redetermine the Route in Delivery, as shown below:
