hi

In the sales order, the route determination is dependent upon the following factors:

Country of departure/departure zone

Country of destination/receiving zone

Shipping conditions

Transportation group

The above list plus the weight group factor make up the factors relevant for determining the delivery route determination

but where does weight group come from?

The weight group is determined by the actual weight of all the items.

The document type determines whether the route is determined again in the delivery ( considering the actual weight of delivery again )

Weight group is also considered in determining the route during delivery, so that different routes may be porposed depending on the actual weight of the delivery.

Hope it helps.

Weight group is assigned at points (b) & (c) detailed below

In IMG - Logistics Execution - shipping - Basic shipping functions - Routes - Route determination

(a) select define weight groups - Maintain weight groups : you would define a weight group and up to what weight this weight group should apply

(b)select define weight groups - Maintain details for weight groups: Assign the exact weights up to which the weight groups are valid using the corresponding weight units

(c) Maintain Route determination - select your entry for country of departure, Dep. Zone, Dest. country, Rec. Zone - select route determination with weight group (delivery) - Assign your weight group to shipping condition, transportation group & route.
