First, you have to define the shipping type if the default settings provided by the<br />

<strong>SAP</strong> system are not sufficient. For the sake of simplicity, copy a similar shipping<br />

type. A mode of transport must be assigned to this shipping type. Enter a corresponding<br />

value in the Mode of transport column. The mode of transport indicates<br />

whether the shipping type is by road, by train, by mail, or postal services, by<br />

sea or air, and so on. The shipment cost settlement also depends on the shipping<br />

type, but you do not have to create pricing procedures for each shipping type.<br />

Instead, you can combine similar shipping types for pricing procedures via the<br />

Shipping type group field (see Figure 12.25).<br />

You can create further modes of transport if the <strong>SAP</strong> standard version is not<br />

sufficient.<br />
