<b>Shipping Conditions (VSBED):</b>

General shipping strategy for the delivery of goods from the vendor to the customer.

You can define shipping conditions in your system which corresponds to the requirements of your company. You can specify a shipping condition in the customer master and in the vendor master.

The loading group, the plant and the shipping condition determine the shipping point that will be proposed by the system.

Apart from the country and the geographical region of the shipping point, the ship-to party and the transportation group, the shipping condition determines the route that the system proposes in the order for the delivery of the goods. In the delivery, the route proposal also takes the weight group into account.

<b>Transportation Planning:</b>

Transportation Planning is part of the Transportation Planning/Vehicle Scheduling (TP/VS) application and is used for medium to long-term planning. It enables the transportation planner to optimally distribute the available capacities for trucks, trains, ships, and planes. The aim of Transportation Planning is to load capacities in the most efficient way and reduce costs. Most customers currently rely entirely on external shipping companies to carry out an optimal transportation of goods, which means that punctual and cost-effective deliveries are a high priority.

Hi

Transportation planning is an industry-specific enhancement to the standard SAP R/3 Logistics Execution module.

You can use transportation planning to schedule and organize tours, with the aim of grouping together all outbound deliveries into shipments. You can then conduct the shipments.

The following data is used for transportation planning:

• Driver master record

• Vehicle master record

• Tour master records (assignment of drivers and vehicles to regular routes)

<b> Shipping Condition </b>

A shipping strategy for delivery.

If the shipping condition states, for example, that the goods must reach the customer as soon as possible, the system proposes the fastest shipping point and route.

Hi Suresh,

Shipping conditions are the General shipping strategy for the delivery of goods from the vendor to the customer.

You can define shipping conditions in your system which correspond to

the requirements of your company. You can specify a shipping condition

in the customer master (Shipping Tab)

Also the Shipping point determination in the Sales order is based on the combination of the Loading group (maintained in the Material master--> Sales: general/Plant view) + the Plant (determined from Customer master or material master) and the Shipping condition (maintained in Shipping Tab of Customer master) = Shipping Point..

Hope the above helps you.

REWARD if it helps you!!
