Hi Ramesh,

1) The basic differences between R/3 and SNP functionality is that

R/3 is the execution tool and SNP is the planning tool in which planning

can be done in SNP and the results will be sent back to R/3 for

execution purposes.

2) Both R/3 and SNP can be integrated together via Core interface.

This core interface exists in R/3. One has to create integration

models in R/3 to integrate master data and transactional data

elements between R/3 and SNP.

3) TP/VS module is the tranportation planning module in SCM.

ie Tranportation planning and vehicle scheduling. Using this module,

one can plan transports, service provider, scheduling a vehicle,

transport capacity planning etc.,
