Figure 12.26 Defining Shipping Types via the Route
You can determine the shipping type in the route (see Figure 12.26). The shipping
type is not automatically found either in the sales order or delivery document,
but is not determined until shipment. Just like the means of transport type, this
process is manually controlled or executed with specific algorithms that you have
programmed in user exits.
A third criterion to classify your materials that are supposed to ship is the special
processing indicator. This field enables you to indicate that your shipment requires
special processing or consideration. You can also use this indicator for your shipment
cost settlement. A special indicator could be, for example, if the truck has to
have a tail-lift and thus may only have a certain height (due to the maximum gate
height at the ship-to party), and so on.
