Dear Indrajit,
Shipments & Transportation
1) Maintain transportation planning point through Menu as follows:
IMG Maintain planning point. Logistic Execution Definition Enterprise Structure transportation
Create your own like BP01 enter the general data¡¯s required
2) Defining modes of transport:
Transportation Functions Transportation Logistic Execution Define modes ofIMG RoutesBasic transportDefine routes
Use the standard like:
Shipping type: 01
Description: Road
3) Define shipping types :
RouteTransportation Functions Transportation Logistic ExecutionIMG Define shipping typesBasic
Or through T-code: SM30
PT: 01
Description: Truck
Mdtr: 01
STPG: 0001
4) Define transportation connecting point :
Logistic Execution Define transportationIMG DefineRoutes Basic connection pointsTransportation Functions routesTransportation
Copy the std point and make it FB01 as departure zone and FB02 as destination zone
5) Define routes and stages.
Transportation Functions Transportation routes and stages Logistic Execution IMG Define Define routes Routes Basic
Use the standard route and copy it as FB0001 and enter the departure zone and destination as what we created.
6) Defining Transportation Zone:
Basic Transportation Logistic Execution IMG Define transportation Router determination Route Transportation Functions zones
Use the standard transportation zone depending on the route so as for the example use 0000000003 - Southern Region
7) Maintain country or transportation zone for shipping points
Transportation Logistic Execution IMG Route determination Route Basic Transportation Functions Maintain country and transportation zone for shipping point
Shipping point be ASH1 and route as 0000000003 which is assigned to country India
😎 Maintain route determination:
Logistic Execution MaintainIMG Route determination Route Basic determinationTransportation Functions Transportation route
Country of departure: India
Departure Zone: 0000000003
Country of destination: India
Destination Zone: 0000000003
And enter the datas needed like shipping condition 01, etc.
Maintain Transportation relevance for shipping point, sales document type and delivery types.
9) Now create shipping types
shipment Shipments Transportation Logistic Execution typesIMG Define
Copy the standard 0001 and make it to AFIL
10) Define and assign traffic zones through T-Code: T_76 (or) thru menu as follows
functions Shipments cost Transportation Logistic Execution and assignIMG DefineBasic tariff zones
Copy the standard and make it to FABTARIFF and assign our transportation planning point as ATP1, ATP2 assign tariff zone to every particular transportation planning point
11) Define and assign pricing procedures
assign pricing Price control Pricing Shipments cost procedures Transportation Logistic Execution IMG define and
Copy the standard shipping cost pricing procedure SDFC00 to FBSC01
12) Assign purchasing data:
Settlement Shipments cost Transportation Logistic Execution IMG Assign purchasing data
13) Assign transportation planning point to shipping condition, purchase organization, purchasing group and to plants.
14) Define Automatic G/L account determination:
Transportation Logistics Execution IMG Automatic G/L Account Determination SettlementShipment Costs
Or through T-code: OMWB
Use G/L account 614000 as used in standard
15) Automatic determination of CO assignments:
Logistics Execution Determination of CO AssignmentsIMG Automatic Settlement Shipment Costs Transportation
Or T-code: OKB9
16) Maintain shipping point address.
Definition Enterprise Structure Define, copy, delete, check shipping Logistics Execution point
17) Creating G/L account centrally.
AccountingAccounting Master Records General Ledger Financial
Processing CentrallyIndividual
Or through T-Code: FS00
18) Enter the G/L account 614000 to the company code AFIL
19) Create transportation condition records:
Logistic Execution create Prices Shipment cost Transportation Master data
Or thru T-code: TK11
Enter condition type FB00 that is freight condition type, which is used as standard in the shipping cost pricing procedure.
Enter the price and save it

shipment processes start with SD. the process has integration with MM and FI as well. t-codes:
1. VA01 - create sales order
2. VL01N or VL10C - create delivery
3. VT01N - create shipment (this is when you include the deliveries)
4. VL06O - picking
5. VT02N - shipment completion
6. VF01 billing
Process:
1. The system determines the pricing procedure for the shipment cost item-using transportation planning point, service agent and shipment cost item category
2. Calculation Basis
3. Condition Record
4. Access sequence.
For the sales order, create a delivery using VL01N and pick the goods. Now create a shipment using VT01N and assign the delivery to the shipment document. Make sure to enter the carrier and other details before performing the transportation planning and execution. Save the shipment document and PGI for the delivery would be done automatically.
A shipment represents a physical goods movement between two or more locations.
For the system to create a shipment, shipping-relevant deliveries must exist.
You use Transportation Planning to group pending deliveries into shipments and then to perform the shipments.
The outbound delivery documents contain routes that the system calculates in route determination, and a transportation planning date for the delivery.
Dynamic transportation planning is responsible for grouping together outbound deliveries into shipments that have at least the same route, visit plan type and the same transportation planning date.
The following restrictions can be taken into account for a shipment in Dynamic Transportation Planning:
Weight
Volume
Variable capacity
Number of stops
Maximum duration
Loading units

5) ML81N Service Entry Sheet
6) MIRO Invoice Verification
Shipping docs (VT01) are created before PGI...
You cannot carry out transportation planning or creation of shipment after the goods issue has been executed. Once goods issue is done it means that the material has left your premises so there is no need for a transportation planning after it.
In case you need carry out the shipment documents at the end of the day you could just create the delivery documents during the day and at end of the day create the shipment documents and the goods issue
