5.5.3 Delivering Plant<br />

Because the shipping point is assigned directly to one or more plants, the plant<br />

must also be used for the purpose of shipping point determination. The plant in<br />

question here is the delivering plant. You can find the definition of the plant in<br />

Section 2.1.3.<br />

The delivering plant is determined during the entry of the sales order item and<br />

copied into the item. You can maintain it in three places:<br />

in the customer master record of the ship-to party<br />

in the material master record<br />

The <strong>SAP</strong> system allows you to create a customer-material info record. This info<br />

record contains data that you must create specifically for this one customer only<br />

and for one material. Figure 5.56 shows the available fields.<br />

The customer-material info record is mainly used for saving the material number<br />

of the customer, which can then be printed in the documents (e.g., order confirmations,<br />

delivery notes, packing lists). Here, however, I will focus only on the<br />

delivering plant.<br />
