Transportation time using condition technique!!

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can anyone tell how transportation time is calculated using condition technique (APO)? we have defined following in access sequence for scheduling

Plant

Destination country

Spd trans. zone

Shipping Conditions

Weight group

Factory Calendar ID

Now if no transportation lane is defined between plant A and ship to party B. Then how system is going to calculate the delivery date? where do we define transportation time between A and B or how it is getting calculated?

HI,

You can define a specific transporation duration in the condition technique per chracteristic (e.g. Shipto, plant, etc.).

Create new condtion records via TA /sapCND/AU11. Create a entry for TRAN and choose a access sequence. There you define a duration e.g. for a ship-to, etc.

Three options to find a transporation duration:

1. Directly from the transportation lane (TA /SAPAPO/SCC_TL1)

2. Estimated by the system if the transporation lane does not contain any duration (except if the Fix-Duration Indicator was set, note 1464309)

(The system calculates the transportation time based on the distance between the start and destination location and the average speed of the means of transport used.)

3. from the contion technique (TA /SAPCND/AU11)

(A Transportation calendar can be defined just via scheduling userexit 002 for the condition technique.)

Further details in the SAP Help Docu:

Hope it helps.

Michael
