Wild Card Postal Codes in Transportation Zones and Postal Code Range in TCM

Hello Experts,

I have 2 queries on Postal Codes usability in SAP TM:

1. Postal Code Transportation Zones:

Business Scenario: Some countries have non-numeric Postal Codes and you can not maintain From and To Postal Code range. System supports Postal Code to be entered as Wild Card (XY1*) in Transportation Zone but does not respect them during charge calculation.

2. Postal Code Range in Rate Table:

There are standard Calculation Bases for Source/Destination Postal Code Range but these do not allow maintaining values like Source Postal Code Range (90100-90199) to Destination Postal Code Range (63100-63199). I am unable to understand the use of these 2 calculation bases since they do not accept range.

Kindly suggest.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Vikas Chhabra
