Planned Delivery Time and Transportation duration- Tlane and Means of Transportation

[former_member225637]

Dear Experts ,

I have question regarding lead time calculation my SNP

I have

Start Location : A

Destination location: B

I maintained Planned delivery time in ECC- material master as 10 days  and cifed to Tlane Product procurement as 10 days

and leave empty in the transportation duration empty so the total lead time is 10 days from start location A to destination location  B

now

I maintain 24 hours in Means of transport as transportation duration by truck

now the lead time is 11 days from start location A to destination location B

Now

i leave empty planned delivery time empty and maintain Means of transport duration as 48 hours

so the lead time is 2 days from A to B

does my understanding is correct or not advise please

Regards

Raj

Hi Raj,

Your understanding is correct.

I use to setup the transit time in the mean of transport at the transportation lane and keep empty the planned delivery time in MM02, otherwise it is added.

So you have these two options:

1- Setup the time at the t-lane and keep emtpy the delivery time.

2- Setup the time in the planned delivery time and keep empty the time in the t-lane.

Kind Regards,

Mariano

Hi Raj,

Take a look of these notes. Specially SAP note 379006. This note explains how the system sets the times in ECC and APO. Basically, It recommends a BAdI in order to match the delivery date in ECC and APO (transit time). What I recommend is to set delivery time equal to 0 if this is possible in your company.. This is not an SAP recommendation, because the delivery date is a key master data in the purchasing process and making it equal to 0 could not be allowed.. Now, if its possible in your case, it is the easiest way to ensure consistency...

These are the notes:

379006
- Transport duration and planned delivery time in APO and R/3

441622
- Supplying-plant-dependent planned del. time/trans. time

624982
- Incorrect dates for RBA controlled stock transfer

Kind Regards,

Mariano
