Sales order change allows shipping point | plant combination - not possible

[Former Member]

A sales order was created and all lines defaulted to the correct shipping point for the plants.

Subsequently, one line's shipping point was changed to a shipping point not possible for the plant, i.e, no assignment exists for the shipping point and plant.  There were no checks to validate the change.  Thus, the sales order was saved with the bad shipping point for the plant (non-WM).

The delivery was created with two lines for plant (WM) and one line for plant (non-WM).

The solution was to manually delete the non-WM plant line from the delivery and.  Next, correct the plant (non-WM) to the WM managed plant and create a new delivery.

Why did SAP allow the order to save with bad shipping point - plant combination.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Might be at sales order creation time, the assignments are observed in TVSTZ table.

Definitely, standard SAP won't allow you to change the shipping point unless, it is assigned in OVL2 as already pointed out.  Check whether this issue is there for all plants / shippint points or only in that document, this issue has happened.

Hi Brenda, you probably have looked at transaction code 'OVL2', the overview configuration. But note that it's also possible you set up shipping point determination through storage location (SPRO/IMG>Logistics Execution>Shipping > Basic shipping functions>Shipping Point and(...)>Set-Up storage loc.-dependent-sp determination.), check also the others Logistics Execution configurations.

If table is blank or no other configuration in Logistic Execution is interfering SAP behavior, you can also check incompletion log configuration or error messages configuration (OVM1).
