Additional columns on Shipping Point Determination

[Former Member]

Hello to everyone!

We are assigning shipping points to plant in our warehouses here. But the problem is all MShpt columns are already filled out. That’s why we can’t proceed to assign shipping points since the standard are only 12 columns including the default. And our client will be using all the existing shipping points.

So is it possible to add columns here in shipping point determination? And is there any other implications if our ABAP Programmer will customize the program if they will add columns here.

Guys, could you help me with this problem, please.

Thanks a lot

Hi Rachel,

The shipping point determination shows more than 40 columns for MShPt. This is in version 4.6C but in your version if you are able to see only 12 , then you can opt for categorization of your materials based on the loading group. Since all the parts would not be having the same loading grp and will not be getting shipped from all the shipping points.

So a better categorization of Material Master and the Customer Master (Shipping Condition) might help.

The creation a new Z table will be better approach in your scenario which will be called as part of the Sales Order User exits.

I think you can try user exit instead of creating new field in standard in standard SAP table. This is not advisable.

Find relevant user exit with the help of the ABAPer and while creating sales order this will be call a popup and allow the user to select from that option.

Try and reward if helpful
