Dear Friends,
I got one issue relavant to Route Determination. While I am creating Purchase Order, the route is not comming automatically in the item level shipping tabpage.
Route has been determined correctly. I have checked
1)Transportation Zone
2)Departure Zone
3)shipping conditions 4)Transportation Group.
IMG settings were configured correctly. I tried to enter the route manually, but the system is not accepting.
Please have a look on the above request and help me out to resolve the requisition
Thanks in advance.
Route determination does not work the same in the PO as in the sales order. Please look at OSS note:

Dear Amjad,
Please don't get confused in a Sales Order and a Purchase Order.
A Sales Order is the responisbility of your organization and it depends on your organization to determine whatever is best , economical and fast route. So your organiztion can chose any route to send the Goods to the customer, the customer does not care , the only thing what matters to the customer is whether or not the goods are being delivered on the requested Date.
Similarly, when you raise a PO , you do not have any authority to set or determine the route for the vendor. Its upto the vendor to determine the best route to deliver you the product. The only thing which would matter to you is the Deliver Date.
Hope this Clarifies.
Thanks

Hi Amjad,
I doubt is route is determined in PO. As far as I know, it's not.

Hi,
The route determines the means of transport and the legs involved. It influences transportation scheduling.. Therefore, during transportation scheduling, it takes into account how far in advance loading space in the freight car must be reserved.
A route can be determined for every order item. Determining the route in the sales order depends on the following factors:
Country and departure zone of the shipping point
Shipping condition from the sales order
For example, it might have been agreed with the customer that the goods are to be delivered as soon as possible.
Transportation group from the material master record (Sales/Plant Data screen)
You can use the transportation group to group together goods with the same characteristics (for example, bulky goods or goods that must be transported in refrigerated trucks).
Country and transportation zone of the ship-to party (Control screen in the customer master record)
If the ship-to party is changed in the sales order, the route is determined again for each item.
Using the delivery type, you can control in Customizing whether the transportation scheduling is to be executed once again after a route change has before that please check below you have maintain in customizing

hi,
Route is determined in sales order by combination of
country of departure
departure zone
country of destination
receiving zone
shipping condition
transportation group
weight group(optional)
pls check the above in customising.
also check whether there is new route determination by delivery type and allowed actual routes vs proposed routes.

Hi Pasha
Route is determined in the sales order and also in the delivery
To determine Route in the sales order automatically u have todo some configuration settings
Rouite is determined by taking 4 factors into considerations
1.Shipping conditions from the customer master or Sales order
2.Departure zone of the plant
3. destination zone of the ship to paraty
4. Transportation group from the material master
and if u want to determine the route for the delivery u have to take another factor apart from the other 4
that is the delivey group which is called the weight of the material
i think that u have not assigned the Transportaion zone to the custome f the ship to party in the shipping tab
this is the main cause for not determining the route automatically in the order or the delivery document
hope this is useful
