Transportation Management with SAP LES

Dangerous Goods Check in the Delivery Document 9.3
the route stage, the departure country from the shipping point is assigned the
shipping type from the route stage, unless you stored your own shipping type for
the preliminary leg in the route header. The same applies for the destination country.
If the destination country of the ship-to party is not the same as the destination
country from the route stage, the destination country of the ship-to party is
assigned the shipping type from the route stage, unless you maintained a shipping
type for the subsequent leg in the route header.
If there are several stages in the route, the transit countries are assigned to the route
stages. Because each route stage has a shipping type, the corresponding shipping type
can therefore be assigned to each transit country. When determining the departure and
destination country, the process runs as if only one route stage were defined. Only this
time, the comparison takes place with the first stage from the route for the departure
country and with the last stage from the route for the destination country.
The second case involves routes without stages. If the departure country and destination
country are the same, the SAP system assumes that the delivery is national
and the country is assigned all of the shipping types that were defined in the route.
If the departure country and destination country are different, the system assumes
that this is an international delivery.
The departure country in this case is assigned the shipping type from the preliminary
leg if it was defined; otherwise, it is assigned the shipping type from the main
leg. The destination country is assigned the shipping type from the subsequent leg.
If this has not been maintained, the destination country is assigned the shipping
type from the main leg. The transit countries are assigned the shipping type from
the main leg, unless you maintain the shipping type in the transit country table.
If no transit countries are generally found, the departure country and destination
country are assigned the shipping type from the main leg.
If the shipping type from the main leg is assigned to the sea or air traffic mode-oftransport
category, and you set the Sea/air indicator in the transit country table,
this mode-of-transport category is also used for this country. If you did not set the
indicator in the transit country table, the departure country and destination country
of the shipping is assigned to the mode-of-transport category for sea/air.
You have now established the validity area using the countries (departure, transit,
and destination) and the corresponding dangerous goods regulation using the
country and the mode-of-transport category and are now able to determine the
correct dangerous goods master data.
