SIMG_CFMENUOLSDTROL2 - Determine Route for Inbound Deliveries

Set the most suitable route for inbound deliveries.

You can set the route determination for inbound deliveries for each supplier and receiving plant.

When you create an inbound delivery, the system determines and assigns a route if one is found.

• You have selected New route determination for inbound deliveries for the relevant delivery types using the configuration step Define New Route Determination for Delivery Type in the Configure Your Solution app.

• You have maintained routes for inbound transportation using the configuration step Define Routes, in the Configure Your Solution app.

You can maintain the settings of this configuration step in your P-system as well as in your Q-system separately as, for example, not all your supplier master data might be available in your Q-system.

You can remove assignments you made earlier to correct errors if required. Please make sure to check if the entry you’re about to delete is still in use. Before you can safely remove any assignments, you should completely process any related delivery documents.

Note that it is not possible to remove assignments that were shipped by SAP from this list.
