Use Gis Information System

[ndreas_hanke]

Hi TM experts,

I want to show a map with geographical data in TM Transportation Cockpit and the following message was displayed. SAP Default Adapter. I have installed the ACF certificate. Is there any way to customize a gis system for demo purposes to show a valid map.

Hello Andreas,

please check the following link: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-43251

There you have all required steps to set your geographical display up. Refer to the Openstreetmap document to configure it in your case. This is the one I already used for demo purposes and it works fine.

Other requirements:

- you need Frontend Control to be enabled

- your web browser should run ideally on a 32 bit version.

You can find a useful guide here too, together with a troubleshooting section that explains your issues... I had the same error as you :

Hi Salvador, this is Marco Perez. Currently I am the one to implement SAP TM 9.0, one of the requirements of the customer (Well, actually the seller promise GPS+MAPS = REAL TIME MONITORING) is to have the tracking of their shipments.

Would it be possible to contact you if any problem is on my way?

In general for tracking purpose it is also a good idea to consider a TM / EM solution.

Thank You Marcus,

Currently the customer does not adquired EM solution, it is posible to fully track a shipment only with SAP TM 9.0?

Can you please explain what can I have with / without SAP EM?

I read all you MKS and made full notes about it, I am just reading your 23th and 24th MKS's again to double check.

Thanks again in advance, and regards from Mexico

Well I have RE-READ all your MKS and the answer is YES, I CAN FULLY TRACK A SHIPMENT WITH SAP TM ONLY because in fact I will need only a GIS vendor and follow the CookBook if I decide WebService, or follow the WHITEPAPER (Which is the best for me).

Can I contact you if I am stucked? I am new as SCM TM consultant but very committed.

Hi,

well, the advantage of SAP EM would be to benefit from the automated standard processes and interfaces. A pure SAP TM shipment and resource tracking requires custom coding.

In case you have questions feel free to post them here.
