A delivery is always initiated from a shipping point. The shipping point can be proposed automatically during order processing depending on the plant, loading group and shipping condition.

Its plays a vary important role as without a shipping point you really cant create a delivery document

Loading groups are defined in Material master Record , which specifically means which group will load the material for the transportaion, is it done by Crane, or on pellets, etc ...

Hope this helps

Cheers
