Route Determination in Inbound
Dear All,
How to configure the system to automatically determine the Route incase of Inbound Delivery Process?
I know that the Route is getting detemined through the transportation zones & also the transportation group of the material.
I have given the departure transportation in my vendor master record & receiving zone in my shipping point/receiving point address tab & also maintained a route for the shipping condition which I maintained in my vendor master & Trans.group in the material master.
Inspite of doing all the above the route is not getting determined automatically.
So please suggest a solution.
Regards,Hi Amol,
As you have suggested I have checked my material master trp group & its assignment to Shipping condition & route determination.
Please note tht the goods receiving point is getting automatically determined as per the config but even though I have done the necessary assignment my route is not gettin determined automatically when I create a Inbound Delivery.
To be more specific.
I have given the Route for the TP zone given in my vendor master & TP zone given in the goods receiving/shipping point.
I have maintained the Route for the combination of TP group given in my material master (sales view) & Shipping conditions given in my vendor master.
Please help if you have any solutions.

Route determination for PO and Delivery
Hi Experts,
I would like to ask how to set up route fro deliveries and Stock transport orders.
Hope you can help me on this.
Thank you very much.

MyleneWorking with Route Schedules
Use
Using a route schedule, you can control periodic customer deliveries of a particular shipping point to different ship-to parties (for example, customers or stores) in a certain sequence on a certain defined route. The planning is based on calendar weeks. The period unit is a day. Also, route schedules have a goods issue time.
The route schedule function supports the following processes:
Periodic deliveries from a shipping point to stores or customers are planned in advance on the basis of calendar weeks and weekdays, also without reference to particular deliveries.
You adapt the schedules in the specific cases to the planning. For example, you can plan a GI date for a Monday at 8 oclock, without knowing the exact date or the delivery.
On the basis of this planning, deliveries that are to leave the warehouse at the same time are combined into groups. In Shipping you can thus distribute the workload by processing these groups.
Features
You can display all deliveries for a particular route schedule on a particular day, for a particular shipping point, and so on. In this way, for example, you can choose picking lists on the basis of route schedules.
You can create route schedules for the following documents:
Sales orders
Stock transfer orders
Deliveries that are based on sales orders, store orders, stock allocations, stock transfer orders, and deliveries without reference.
The route schedule is displayed in the header data of the delivery. For each delivery within the route, the system prints the expected date and the expected time of the delivery (on the basis of the local time at the original shipping point) on the delivery note; the goods issue date is used for the goods issue posting and the stock valuation.
In Customizing, you define for each shipping point, delivery type, stock transfer order, and order type whether or not route schedules are to be used.
You create the route schedules in the master data for shipping. Here you define the route schedule determination and the validity period for the route schedule and the itinerary.
As soon as the legs have been defined, you can branch to another screen to determine the actual itinerary, as well as the time (days/hours/minutes) required to get from one unloading point to the next. In this screen there is a field beside each leg. Here you can enter the number of the itinerary for the individual legs of the route. If, for example, you enter legs A and B, but assign itinerary number 2 and 1 to these, B is the first unloading point on this route. If you press Enter, the legs are displayed in the correct sequence.
At the same time it is possible to control the route schedule determination for each delivery type, stock transfer order, and order type. It is activated in the same manner as the repeated route determination. If the route schedule determination for a delivery is active, the system automatically attempts, during creation or change of a delivery, to determine a route schedule and records this in the delivery. Simultaneously, the scheduling is adjusted. All the deadlines, for example, the transportation planning time, the picking time, the loading time, the goods issue time, and the delivery time can change.
Deliveries with the same route schedule and the same date can be selected for the same picking run and the same goods issue. The same procedure can be used for printing delivery notes and freight lists, for the grouping of deliveries into shipments, and for confirmation of picking orders.
Deliveries that leave the warehouse at the same time, but are assigned to different routes and can therefore have different route schedules, can be combined together and processed through the creation of wave picks. The only condition is that all deliveries have the same goods issue time.
Route Schedule Determination
If exactly one route schedule is defined for a particular combination of requirements, then the system will use this.
For each combination of requirements for the route schedule determination, you can define several route schedules.
In the case of a delivery without a preceding document, the system determines the route schedule with the earliest delivery time at the ship-to party.
In the case of deliveries based on preceding documents (for example, stock transfer orders), the system searches for the route schedule that is nearest to the planned date/time of the delivery. The system uses the following search algorithm:
- If a route schedule exists for the specified time, this is assigned to the delivery.
- If there is no route schedule for the time specified, the system searches for the previous route schedule up to the GI time.
- If there is no route schedule from the GI time to the planned time, the system searches for the next route schedule in the future and assigns this to the delivery.
Requirements for Route Schedules
The route schedules are determined by the following conditions:
· Shipping point
Where are the goods coming from?
Ship-to party and unloading point
Where are the goods going to?
Shipping condition
How are the goods being shipped?
Transportation group
Which goods are shipped?
® For example, which type of goods?
Calendar week / year
When are the goods to be shipped?
If you do not explicitly enter the week and the year, the entry applies for each calendar week. If you enter a week and a year, the route schedule only applies for this week.
You can only use route schedules if you have maintained the working times and therefore at least one of the following times in minutes:
· Transportation planning time
· Pick/pack time
· Loading time
· Transit time
A route schedule can leave the warehouse exactly once in a week. If a route schedule runs several times, either on several days or several times a day, it must be copied to another route schedule.
Special schedules and public holiday weeks are possible.
Processing a Route Schedule
Implementation Options
Wholesale trade customers and stores can receive goods at regular intervals. These delivery rhythms have an influence on the workload in the warehouse. To help delivery planning, the route schedule serves as a tool for planning regular, repetitive customer deliveries on a particular route. At the time of planning, potential deliveries that have not yet been created are grouped in the route schedule. When the deliveries are created, the system can automatically determine a route schedule and assign it to the delivery. All deliveries with the same route schedule and the same date can be processed together in the shipping point. All these deliveries leave the shipping point together at a particular time. They are distributed along the same geographical route.
· Deliveries for route schedule MO10H leave the shipping on Mondays at 10:00 in the direction of Philadelphia.
· Deliveries for route schedule MO10M leave the shipping point on Mondays at 10:00 in the direction of Boston.
· Deliveries for route schedule MO10S leave the shipping point on Mondays at 10:00 in the direction of New York.
You can print picking lists for all deliveries that belong to route schedules MO10H - MO10S together.
Prerequisites
If you want to define route schedules, you must perform the following tasks:
- Activate the route determination
- Activate the delivery scheduling
- Activate the route schedule for your shipping point and make the following settings:
Transaction
Activity
Delivery
Route schedule determination for delivery type
Sales order
Route schedule determination for sales document type
Stock transfer order
Route schedule determination for delivery type
Set delivering plant and order type
Maintenance of the itinerary should be uniform for all the route schedules used. To ensure exact planning, maintain the itinerary for all the route schedules. If rough planning is sufficient in this case, you do not need to maintain the itinerary for a route schedule.
If you do not define any goods accepted times in the customer master for the unloading points of the ship-to party, the system assumes that the goods acceptance is possible at any time. The system determines the delivery time from the departure time in the route schedule plus the required traveling time to the ship-to party, as set in the itinerary (specific move time). This delivery time must be within the goods acceptance time of the unloading point of the ship-to party. If not, the respective route schedule is not determined during delivery creation.
For more information on route schedules, refer to the Implementation Guide (IMG) under Route Schedules.
Process Flow
Select the shipping point you are working for and enter the number of the route schedule.
Enter the data that defines the route schedule more exactly:
- Description of the route schedule
- Route
- Departure day (weekday)
- Departure time
You define the route schedule determination. When you create the delivery, the system can determine a route schedule on the basis of the following data:
- Shipping point
- Ship-to party
- Unloading point (if available)
- Shipping condition
- Transportation group
- (Optional) year/period
You enter this data (with the exception of the shipping point already entered in step 1).
You decide whether or not you wish to define the itinerary for this route schedule.
(Optional) You enter the itinerary and, if required, also the travelling time.
Creating a Route Schedule
Choose Logistics ® Logistics Execution ® Master data ® Transportation ® Routes ® Route schedule ® Create.
In the screen Create Route Schedule: Initial Screen, enter the shipping point and the number of the route schedule.
If you wish to use data from an existing route schedule as a reference, enter the respective shipping point and the number of that route schedule. If you also wish to copy the itinerary, check the Copy itinerary box.
Press ENTER .
The Create Route Schedule screen appears (here the system displays the number you just entered for the route schedule and the shipping point).
Enter the following data:
Description of the route schedule
The respective route
Departure day (weekday)
Departure time
In the Determine route schedule section, enter the following data:
Ship-to party
Unloading point (if available)
Shipping conditions
Transportation group
(Optional) Year/period
If you wish to define for this route schedule the itinerary according to which the individual ship-to parties are to be delivered to, choose Extras ® Itinerary.
The Create Itinerary screen appears.
Enter the itinerary and, if necessary, the travelling time.
When you determine the travelling time from one ship-to party to the next, you should include the wait time of the vehicle at the previous ship-to party.
If the same route is planned for several route schedules, define for each of these route schedules the same itinerary that should correspond to the stages and legs of the route.
Choose Goto ® Back.
You return to the Create Route Schedule screen.
In this screen, the Itinerary maintained field is now selected. If you wish to add other ship-to parties, you must also maintain the Itinerary for them.
Check your data and save your entries.

Route determination problem in Stock transport order
Hi,
At present,i am using the plant 0001 and storage location 0001.It is determining the Route as 000001.When i changed it in STO to 000002.It is automatically coming back to old one.
How to change it to 000002?
If we need to any customizing,please tell me the path.
Thanks
SriniThe correct route should be maintained in the customizing for the departure country and the receiving country with the shipping conditions and transportation zone etc.
You need to define this in customizing under logistics execution > transportation > Basic transportation functions > Routes > Route determination > Maintain route determination.
Check the route here. Also check the route whici defined in your related customer master data -
Route determination in Outbound delivery
Hi Friends,
After STO is done i made an Outbound delivery for that STO. Is it possible to determine the route for the outbound delivery?
What is the significance of Route and Route Schedule in Transport Tab of Outbound delivery?
Please some one explain the route determination in Logistics execution master data and also what are all things i should define for route determination for outbound delivery?
Thanks in advance...I'm ready to provide more info on this.
Regards,
Arasuhi
You can define routes in Logistics execution > Transportation. There are two ways to determine route in STO. One is manually enter route in STO and 2ndly is automatic determination. Automatic is recommended when there are big shipments. Automatic route determination is based on Shipping point, shipping conditions, ship to party. I recommend you to use manual entery route in STO. You can also calculate freight and shipping costs by using transportation in logistics execution.
Check the following links. You will find helpful material in these links. I am also configuring transportation in SD module. Transportation is done for both STO and Sales order.

Transit time setting in Route determination
Hi All
I am configuring route determination. We have a transit time of 5 days for one route and if the system encounters a Sunday in between, it considers sunday as holiday and confirms delivery after 6th day. Please note that we have maintained Sunday as holiday in the factory calendar because it should not allow shipping activities or any other activities on Sundays in the plant and shipping point, but transit should be allowed. (I mean, if a truck leaves on Friday, it will not take holiday on Sunday)
Please let me know how I can do thatHi Monika,
I havent really tried this...but my logic says that you maintain the holidays and working hours by factory calendar under
SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions > Scheduling > Delivery Scheduling and Transportation Scheduling > Define Scheduling By Shipping Point
Here you would be able to maintain working hours and holidays for your plant/shipping point and Sunday would be a holiday.
In customizing for route determination maintain a new calendar with no holidays. So regardless of which day the truck leaves it doesnt have any holiday.
Here you would need to activate delivery and transportation scheduling based on shipping point.
Regards,
Amit

User exits for route determination in Sales order & Deliver creation
Hi Gurus,
I need to do some change in the route determination for both sales order & Delivery creation.
Can anyone suggest me which user exit I have to use.
Appropriate answers will be awarded.Hi,
You can use the following exit for route determination - EXIT_SAPL0VRF_001.
The FM documentation is below. Check the functionality:
"The customer exit can be used for customer-specific route determination or to modify the inbound data for the company's own route determination.
The following data is transferred to support customer-specific route determination:
I_VBAK current order header (for route determination in sales order)
I_VBKD order business data (for route determination in sales order)
I_VBAP current order item (for route determination in sales order)
I_VBPA current sales partner
I_LIKP current delivery header (for route determination in delivery)
The following data can be modified and transferred back to the standard route determination or used for a specific route determination:
C_ALAND Country of departure
C_AZONE Departure zone
C_LLAND Destination country
C_LZONE Receiving zone
C_VSBED Shipping condition
C_TRAGR Transportation group
C_GRULG Weight group
C_FLAG_GEN_VT Flag: Route determination with generic shipping
requirements/transportation group.
C_FLAG_INCR_GRULG Flag: Increase weight group if no route
If you want to use a standard route determination with different parameters, trigger the exception 'CONTINUE_WITH_STANDARD'.
In the log table C_PROT, the log data from the customer-specific route determination can be transferred back. In this case, the log entries always refer to customer-specific messages. To add a message to the log table, the function module SD_ROUTE_DET_LOG can be used (see below).
If a route is determined in the customer-specific route-determination, it can be transferred back in the E_ROUTE field. If no route was found, the exception 'NO_ROUTE_FOUND' is to be triggered."

ATP and Route Determination at Storage Location Level
Hi Experts,
I'm working on a project currently and one of the requirements is to have ATP and Route Determination at Storage Location level. I know SAP standard for this is at plant level but was wondering if anyone has had this requirement before, and if so what course of action they took to solve this issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

in my previous project we have a customized table created for all the route determination and used mv45afzz move field to vbap to determined the route.
not sure if there is a easier solution but at least it is doable through customization for sure. -
Route determination third party sales order
We are using third party sales order. The process flow is as follows.
Sales order -> Purchase requisition-> Purchase order-> Vendor ships material directly to customer.
Route is currently determinined based on the following:
1. Departure zone (from shipping point)
2. Shipping condition ( from ship to customer master)
3. Transportation Group (rom material master)
4. Destination zone (Transportation zone of the Customer in the order)
Shipping point is in US, but the vendor who ships material to customer is in China. So, we want the Departure zone for the purpose of Route tdeterimination to be based on address in vendor master, and not shipping point.
Is there anyway, we can do this?
Thanks,
SriniDear Srini,
Welcome to SCN forum....
I find route determination for third party sales not logical. Just think in Third-Party Orders, theres is no Material-Movement and no Deliveries from our Plant;
In this case Route Determination will not be applicable. Customer has placed order to you and you have placed an order to your vendor, who directly deliver the goods to your customer. And you dont have to decide which route customer's transporter will take?
So as per me you need not determine routes in case of third party sales order.
Thanks,

Error when determining the inbound interface
Hi Experts,
I have a Scenario, where i am using Multi mapping Scenario in DEBMDM IDOC from ECC to Xml_File-1(DEBMAS) and Xml_File-2(ADRMAS).
When i Execute the Scenario by sending the IDOC from ECC , i am getting the below error.
Runtime error
Error when determining the inbound interface: Inbound interface found several times (for same sender and receiver) for the outbound interface urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages.DEBMDM.DEBMDM06
Scenario Steps
1) No Condition in Interface Determination
2) 0..unbounded in Message Mapping and Operational Mapping.
3) E1KNA1 is mapped to E1KNA1
4) E1ADRMAS is mapped to E1ADRMAS
5) One Message Mapping and 1 Operational Mapping.
Thanks in Advance.
Sriram.Hello,
I have a Scenario, where i am using Multi mapping Scenario in DEBMDM IDOC from ECC to Xml_File-1(DEBMAS) and Xml_File-2(ADRMAS).
Since your scenario makes sure that the 2 files are created, there is no need to use multi-mapping. Rather, you can use an interface determination split. To do this:
1. declare xml_file1 as service interface 1, xml_file2 as service interface 2
2. do not change target occurrence in message mapping and operation mapping, maintain it as 1..1
( 2 operation mappings)
3. in ID, add the two service interfaces in your interface determination
At runtime, it will split into two inbound interfaces.
When i Execute the Scenario by sending the IDOC from ECC , i am getting the below error.
Runtime error
Error when determining the inbound interface: Inbound interface found several times (for same sender and receiver) for the outbound interface urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages.DEBMDM.DEBMDM06
Were you able to declare the 2 xml_files as two separate service interface(different names) in your operation mapping?
Hope this helps,

Inbound Logistics: ASN, Inbound Deliveries & Inbound Shipments
We are attempting to implement an inbound logistics process. Inbound delivery and inbound shipment configuration is NOT an issue, but our internal business partners are concerned about the accuracy of the vendors shipping operations and does not trust that they will send an accurate ASN (qty, u of m) to us to generate the inbound delivery. Does anybody have any experience and success in using a method other than ASN to automatically generate the inbound delivery, such as generating it at goods receipt, etc?
You should meet with your supplier and make sure they understand the importance of timely and accurate information in relation to your future business relationship. If necessary, remind them that there are other suppliers in the market.
Then, after they have started to provide ASN data, meet regularly to review adherence to schedule and remedial actions. Their performance should be included in the annual pricing negotiations.
Good luck,

Mass upload of route determination
Hi,
I have a question with regards to a configuring the route determination, our question is not about configuring the route but having to replace one of the old routes records to a new route.
SPRO LE Shipping Routes Route Determination Maintain Route Determination.
We have created a route and all the necessary setup in the spro, and we realize that there are more than 3000 existing old route determination records (i.e. in table TROLZ) which need to be replaced with the new route. It will be impossible for us to manually replace each of the route records on above SPRO path one by one.
Question:
1 u2013 I am thinking about using LSMW, and am wondering if this is possible because there are two method in LSMW:
Method 1 u2013 Standard Batch/Direct Input. Here the Object drop-down box field does not have route determination object as it only have all the standard master data (i.e. material master, vendor, PIR, etc).
Method 2 u2013 Recording. How to perform recording as this is a configuration and not a business transaction like open PO, SO with transaction code?
Please share how to upload this new route and if LSMW is the right way, I am stuck on either the method 1 or method 2. Or is there any other way beside LSMW (please describe detail).
Thanks
TuffHi Csabar,
Thanks.
BUt may I know clearly what do you mean by your following statement?
I would suggest you should always create/modify/delete only one record in config via LSMW.
I have more than 3000 records for this exercise, do You mean I should test it out on one record first in 0VRF during the recording??
thanks
tuff
