Determination rules 1

Automatic determination of Plant, Shipping point and Route in a sales document

Determining delivering plant
During order processing, the SAP R/3 system tries to determine the delivering plant for each item from the master data. The following is the search strategy.
Ÿ First, the system checks whether any plant has been specified in the customer-material info record.
Ÿ If nothing has found then the system checks whether anything has been established in the customer master record for the ship-to party.
Ÿ Finally the system checks whether anything has been established in the material master record.
The automatically determined plant can be changed manually.
Determining shipping point
The SAP R/3 system determine the shipping point for each item considering the following data’s
*   Shipping condition from the sold-to party
*   Loading group from the material master
*   Delivering plant
Determining route
The SAP system route determination is carried out depends upon:
*   The departure zone maintained in Customizing for the shipping point
*   The shipping conditions specified in the master data for the sold-to party(sales and distribution data tab)
*   The transportation zone in the sales and distribution-specific data for the material
*   The transportation zone in the ship-to party general data view
The automatically determined route can be changed manually. You can redetermine the route in the outbound delivery based on the weight group.
