Ship-From Location 

Definition

The ship-from location defines the location from where the licensee is to be shipped the material that they may require to exploit the IP rights transferred.

This shipping can for instance take place from New York.

Use

You record admissible ship-from locations in the IP master data. The ship-from location (along with the available languages and type of shipping) is part of the IP shipping data, which you use in the IP master record to describe the characteristics of the physical material, which has been provided to exploit the right sold. You maintain this data if the associated material is not to be represented separately as a product of the material type in the system.

If a ship-from location has been defined as a default value in the IP master data, this is entered in the contract as a default value automatically.
