Route

[Former Member]

Hi,

How to give the logic for this:

Example In case route X has 3 customers belonging to this route. Customer A = 120 km

Customer B = 200 km and Customer C = 250 km.

If we deliver to customer A+B the distance is 200 km.

If we deliver to customer A the distance is 120 km.

If we deliver to customer ABC the distance is 250 km.

so kindly help on this any one?

Regards,

Pandu

Hi,

The functionality is available in TM and you have to really explore it to find out the solution and configure.

You can have A to C as one route with various legs in between, A to B and B to C as subsequent legs and from point of departure to A as primary leg. Accordingly you have to create a shipment docuemnt first of primary leg type and then one or two shipment documents of type main leg / subsequent leg.

If the concept of legs is well understood and explored, it is possible to enable this functionality in TM. Accordingly, you can also create shipment cost documents for each of these shipment documents irrespective of the leg type.

SAP-ERP is not doing optimization. If you assign same route for the customers, they will be included in the same shipment (if you use route to group deliveries for shipment consolidation).

If you want to do route optimization, you need to go for more advanced solutions like APO/TPVS, or TM.
