Definition

General shipping strategy for the delivery of goods from the vendor to the customer.

Use

You can define shipping conditions in your system which correspond to the requirements of your company. You can specify a shipping condition in the customer master and in the vendor master.

Shipping point determination (outbound delivery):

The loading group, the plant and the shipping condition determine the shipping point that will be proposed by the system.

Route determination (outbound delivery):

Apart from the country and the geographical region of the shipping point, the ship-to party and the transportation group, the shipping condition determines the route that the system proposes in the order for the delivery of the goods. In the delivery, the route proposal also takes the weight group into account.

Example

A particular customer always requires immediate delivery. You enter the appropriate shipping condition into the customer master record. This means that when you process orders for this customer, the system automatically proposes the express mail room as a shipping point and the quickest way to the airport as a route.

Procedure

If a shipping condition has been assigned to a sales document type in Customizing, this condition will be proposed by the system in the corresponding sales document. If there is no assignment, the system copies the relevant data from the corresponding customer master record of the sold-to party. You cannot change this value during delivery processing. The shipping condition will not be copied from the delivery into the shipment. The shipping condition is one of several criteria for selecting deliveries when you create a shipment. You can enter a shipping condition manually in the shipment where it only serves as a characteristic for grouping shipments.
