shipping point error in sales order creation

Dear Friends,

I'm new into customizing in SD. I just crested a new plant, distribution channel, shipping point and have assigned the shipping point to the plant. while trying to create sales order i get this warning message "DOCUMENT /00010 HAS NO CHECKING GROUP (MATERIAL MASTER - PLANT DATA) MESSAGE N0 : W083.

Also, if i edit for incomplete log it is indicating the following as being missing- SHIPPING/RECEIVING POINT, NO LOADING DATE, NO MATERIAL AVAILABLE DATE, TRANSPORT PLANNING DATE, NO GOODS ISSUE DATE.

What else do i need to maintain in the customizing to make it work well

Thanks in advance
