Symptom
When creating a Stock Transport Order with PO type UB or UD in the 'Create Purchase Order advanced' APP the error message 'Not possible to determine shipping data' is raised unexpectedly.
Environment
SAP S/4Hana Public Cloud Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the APP 'Create Purchase Order advanced' (ME21n).
- Choose document type UB.
- Enter the supplying plant in the supplier field.
- Enter the Purchase Org area of the receiving plant
- Enter the material ID, Qty and receiving plant data and press return.
- Message 'Not possible to determine shipping data' is raised.
Cause
Missing configuration and/or master data, common causes:
No delivery type can be found, no shipping point can be determined, the shipping conditions are missing in the customer master, the customer has not been created in the sales area of the supplying plant.
Resolution
In the Public Cloud the core configuration is delivered as standard content, however there are several settings and master data that are required for the system to determine the shipping data correctly.
Please check the follow main points in your particular case to avoid this error:
- Is there a delivery type defined for the PO document type and supplying plant combination ?
Check in configuration node 'Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure by Plant' (SSCUI 103424)
- Assign a plant to the chosen supplier.
Check in the APP 'maintain business partner' (BP)
- Both plants have a defined sales area and customer ?
Check configuration node 'Define Shipping Data for Plants' (SSCUI 101926)
- A customer must be assigned to the plants and this customer must be created in the sales area of the plants.
Check in the APP 'maintain business partner' (BP)
- The material used must exist in the plants and be defined for the sales area of the plants
Check 'Display Material' (MM03) Sales
- The Shipping point determination must be configured.
Check configuration node 'Assign Shipping Points' (SSCUI 102126)
The system uses the supplying plant, the loading group of the material and the shipping conditions from the customer master record of the receiving plant
