Within dangerous goods checks, indicators can be determined and used as a basis for outputting dangerous goods papers/EDI texts on transport papers or for transferring these texts per EDI.

The following indicators are determined dynamically and are not stored in the database.

• Reportable quantities
• Paragraph 7 (previously listed goods according to the GGVS (German regulation on the transportation of dangerous goods by road))

To determine the indicators, dangerous goods checks are processed within data determination for dangerous goods papers/EDI. When processing dangerous goods checks, the following special conditions apply:

You have defined methods for determining indicators. You have allocated the check method type (the ‘CMTpe’ field) ‘Indicator determination method’ to the relevant check methods in the IMG activity Specify dangerous goods check methods in Customizing for Dangerous Goods Checks.

Within the framework of indicator determination, only those materials are checked that have been allocated a dangerous goods indicator profile in the material master, where the Pap indicator (‘relevant for papers’) has been set for the indicator profile.

Within the framework of indicator determination, only check methods of type ‘indicator determination method’ are processed. When determining the relevant check methods, this type of method is filtered from the check schema and taken into consideration.

Within the framework of indicator determination, the log is not created and the dialog box not displayed. As soon as an error occurs (dangerous goods master record could not be determined, for example), the dangerous goods checks are canceled and the error is processed by dangerous goods papers/EDI.
