Trailers, Compartments, and Decreasing Capacities (New)

Use

As of SAP SCM 5.0, Support Package 06 with SAP SCM 5.0 Add-On Transportation Management (TM), the following new functions are available in Transportation Planning/Vehicle Scheduling (TP/VS):

  • Planning with compartments and trailers
  • You define compartments by defining compartment types in Customizing for TP/VS. You can use steps to define whether the capacity consumption is to be based on the step rather than linear.

  • You define trailers by setting the Passive indicator for the means of transport assigned to a vehicle resource in the transaction Maintain Means of Transport.

  • You can combine vehicles and trailers to form vehicle combinations by defining means-of-transport combinations for the assigned means of transport in Customizing for TP/VS.

  • You can define that the vehicle in a vehicle combination is not to have any capacity. To do this, set the No Cap. (No Capacity) indicator for the assigned means of transport in the transaction Maintain Means of Transport.

  • You can now define compatibility levels when defining compatibility types in Customizing for TP/VS. Furthermore, two new object types are available: Means-of-Transport Combination and Compartment.

Note:
The Default option in the Compatibility Level field enables downward compatibility.
  • Definition of decreasing capacities
You can model decreasing capacities if you transport goods for multiple customers on one means of transport (in other words, multiple stop-offs) and you want to separate the goods using partitions. Each partition consumes capacity and therefore leads to a reduction in the total capacity of the means of transport.
The Capacity Decrease tab page has been added to the cost profile to enable you to define decreasing capacities.

Note:

Dynamic route determination does not support trailers, compartments, or decreasing capacities.
