Hello,

For the material you want to deliver, have you checked your purchasing value key in purchasing view ?

Where is the logic at all to have a lesser weight in a shipment than in the assigned deliveries?

And what shall a tolerance do?

Hi Jurgen

Nice to see you , sometime the truck can load more weight or less weight than delivery

so if we have tolerance in route we can avoid the error message functionally only with respect to tolerance

Not sure I understand.

A delivery has the weight of a product and its packaging.

The shipment has this weight plus the weight of pallets and other transportation specific packaging, e.g. the weight of a high sea container.

So I do not get the logic that a shipment weight can be smaller than the total of the deliveries.

And why should a tolerance be route specific? Does it weigh less if it goes from Hamburg to Munich instead of Hamburg to Mumbai?

Just goto to SE91 enter your message number VW669

and use the where used button to see the programs which issue this message and to read the coding whether there is any condition  for a tolerance check. I haven't seen any.

it is like route ways this is for 1 tonne and we could load up to 1.2 tonnes on  trucks so for these tolerance

There is no tolerance that is checked in case of this VW669 message.

In a route you can maintain the allowed total weight, which is necessary if for example your truck has a total weight 45 tons but country xyz allows only 38 tons maximum on their streets.

In no case it logical to have a smaller total weight in a shipment than in the assigned deliveries.
