5.6.3 Weight Group
As mentioned at the beginning of this section, the route determination is carried
out when you enter the sales order or stock transport order. However, if you want
to execute a new route determination when creating the delivery, the weight of
the delivery must also be taken into account.
To do that, you have to divide the weights into scales. Each scale is assigned a
number that represents the weight group. The scale is created in the SAP system as
an “Up-to scale.” Again, this becomes clearer if you take a look at the settings in
the standard SAP system (see Figure 5.64).
Note that no conversion into other units of weight takes place. If you have a unit of
weight other than KG in your delivery (as shown in Figure 5.64), then you must make
your own entries for this unit of weight.
