The shipment site is the storage site from where the products will be shipped when the order is delivered.
The shipment site is initialized to the shipment site entered on the ship-to-customer (it corresponds to the usual shipment site for this delivery address) or, if nothing has been specified, to the user's default storage site. In both cases, the shipment site must belong to the same company as the sales site, otherwise it will not be submitted and it will have to be necessarily entered.
The shipment site can be modified under certain conditions :
The shipment site entered in the header is used as the default value for the order lines. In the case of orders with Complete shipment, the shipment site is not modifiable in the order lines.
If the shipment site can be modified and the order lines exist, the system will propose to the user to modify the shipment site for all the lines in the order (only not allocated or not shipped order lines can be modified).
Inter-company specificitiesIn the case of an inter-company or inter-site order generated from a purchase order, the shipment site will be initialized by the shipment site entered in the purchase order. It can be modified to manage any changes in the shipments. However the source purchase order is not updated by this modification.
