Result

The system calculates the shipment legs based on the leg determination indicator for the shipment document type. It takes into account the shipping points and ship-to parties in the deliveries, as well as the shipping type, the leg indicator, and the route (if you have defined one). If your shipment is part of a transportation chain, the system also takes this into consideration.

If you have leg determination category 1 or 4, the system displays a dialog box in which you can modify the sequence of the relevant locations. This dialog box always appears if you execute leg determination on the overview screen for the stages. However, if you set the status planned for the general header data (this means that leg determination will be initiated), this dialog box only appears if absolutely necessary (for more information, refer to the descriptions for the individual leg determination types).
