  Maintain shipping type for that kind of route
 If the transportation relevance indicator is set, the route can be used for
creating shipments. If you use routes in delivery documents for which
transportation relevance is not maintained, these deliveries cannot be
planned in shipments.

Double click on the Route stages (STEP 3)

  Maintain Loading and Discharge point
 Tick if relevant for shipment costing
 If you do not specify a leg indicator in the shipment type, or if it was not
assigned (leg indicator = initial), the shipment is treated as a direct shipment
(leg indicator = direct leg).

Route Determination
SPRO → LE→ Transportation → Basic Transportation functions → Route → Routes
Determination
1. Define transportation zone
You can define transportation zones according to country/region and depending on
your company's needs. Transportation zones represent delivery recipient (ship-to
party) regions or delivery shipper (supplier) regions.

Country/Region Transportation Zone Description

NG 0000000001 Region Abuja
NG 0000000002 Region Lagos
NG 0000000003 Region P/H

2. Maintain Country And Transportation Zone For Shipping Point

Note- we have transportation group in material master sales/General plant

Now create order and check the Route.
Route Determination with Weight Group (Delivery)
This will help to re-determine the Routes in delivery based on weight
Configuration for route determination with weight group:-
i. Define weight group-
Delete all the existing weight groups and save it. Then go to new entries and
maintain the
weight groups
New entry.

4. Define New Route Determination By Delivery Type

Select LF
A-New route determination without check
B- New route determination with check

5. Define Allowed Actual Route By Proposed Route

 Proposed route is sales order route and actual route is delivery route.

Shipment Document
SPRO → LE → Transportation → Shipments → Maintain Transportation Relevance ->

Define Shipment Types
The standard shipment type for individual shipment with single mode of transport is
0001.
In this step, you define the shipment types which contain all the essential control
features for the shipment document.
Shipment Cost

Rules
A rule for date determination in shipment costing specifies an access sequence of
certain points in time within a shipment (e.g. planning complete, processing, start of
leg, etc.). These are applied during pricing and settlement of shipment costs.
