Hi,

hum, this is a bit huge to reply.

Yard is working as cross-docking with a single WM.

Cross-dock needs :

• A WM configured

• WM movement types to be dedicated

• More tricky, it needs to have the Goods receipt sequence to be modified. The goods receipt must be setup to be done before the TO gets created

Yard is more straight forward.

• Yard site related to WM

• Define the Yard map: The doors, parking spaces... (nota: Maintain the yard doors from the WM customizing. It is a WM location before all.)

• some vehicles (Material group, ...)

• Some master data. The trucks, the trailers...

To keep in mind:

• a truck is an handling unit.

• The relation between a delivery and a truck is done with handling units.

The relation between CD and Yard: At CD Decision time, a Yard scheduling activity will be created. Therefore a WM door will booked.

....

Hope this provides a starting point to you
