Route Schedule Determination (SAP Library

Route Schedule Determination

In the following IMG activities, you define how the system determines a route schedule. If only one route schedule is defined for a certain combination of requirements, then this route schedule is used.

However, more than one route schedules may be defined for a combination of requirements for route schedule determination. When a delivery without preceding documents are involved, the system selects the route schedule with the earliest delivery time for the receiver.

Whendeliveries based on previous documents are involved (e.g. stock transfer orders), the system searches for the route schedule that occurs nearest to the date/time of the delivery.
The following search algorithm is used:

If a route schedule exists for the time specified, it is used for the delivery.

If no route schedule exists for the time specified, the system searches for previous route schedule up to the GI time.

If no route schedule exists from the time of GI up to the time specified, the system searches for the next route schedule in the future and assigns it to the delivery.

You need to carry out the following activities for route schedules:

Use route schedule per shipping point

Use route schedule per delivery type

Use route schedule per order type
