Problem in Shipping

Q1) I am new to SD.  I am facing a problem in Shipping.  After finishing the transfer order, and go to change mode of delivery, Press "post goods Issue".  I am facing this problem: 
"The number range for the transaction/event WL in year 2011 does not exist"
How to solve this problem?

---

Go to TCode SNRO.  Put the no Range object as MATBELEG and click on Number Ranges.  Then click on Change Groups. Then select the second row (which includes your WL doc type). After selecting click on the change/maintain button. On this you can maintain the desired number range. Here you can put the year as 2011 or any future year.
 
 

Q2) When a SO is created and Delivery then we proceed to Transfer order and Post goods issue, sometimes there is a problem in Shipping.  Could you Kindly clarify whether Shipping point is assigned to the Material in Material Master or you can assign the Storage Location, Plant and Shipping point in Delivery.   Also If a Plant has mutliple shipping points,,which one will be assigned for shipping after Delivery created

I also had an error log while creating Transfer order LT03 saying Postings not possible for specified date..Is there a way to solve this problem in Deliveries?

When creating a Sales Order, the system first determines the Delivering Plant in the sequence from the following source:

1) Customer-material info record
2) Customer Master
3) Material Master.

On determining the Delivering plant, the system determines the shipping point with the customising that you do in Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shiping Funct > Shipping point and Goods Recieving Point Determination > Assign Shipping points :

Here you enter the Shipping point to be determined for the combination of:

a) Shipping Condition (which is assigned in the customer master or Salesdocument type)

b) Loading group (which is assigned in the material master)

c) Delivering Plant (which has already been determined)

As regards storage location the same is determined in the delivery from the combination 

1) Shipping Point
2) Delivering Plant
3) Storage condition.

Hope the above has clarified your queries.
