Route can be determined in sales order with the help of 5 parameters: depart country, shipping conditions in customer master record, transportation group in material master, destination country, and weight group.
Weight group plays a vital role. The purpose of route detrmination is like in scenario's where company will ship goods to the customer in various ways not only that it has optional of having n number of routes select the best one & based on his customer priority (time & money.) for sending samples company will go for air, for delivering ordered goods it can go for different mode of transportation & routes.
Configuration part:
Define mode of transportation
Define shipping types.
Assign shipping types to mode of transportation.
Define transportation legs.
Define route here normally we maintain data like whose is arranging transportation, transit time, distance of the route, transportation planning time.
After that maintain stages in the route, by using transportation legs here we need to define whether load transfer, cross border or transportation is carrying out between stages.
Define weight in group as per requirement.
You need to settings under SPRO > S&D > Basic Functions > Routes
Departure Zone (Departure Country) + Shipping Condition + Transportation Group + Receiving Zone (Receiving Country) = Route Determination
Menupath:
SPRO --> Logistics Execution --> Shipping --> Basic Shipping Functions --> Routes --> Route Determination --> Maintain Route Determination
