Hi

<b>Shipment document </b>

The shipping document is the central element of transportation planning and shipment completion. It contains all the

information necessary for carrying out transportation.

You create shipment documents using a worklist. Different types of shipment documents have been defined to enable you to reflect in the system the various forms of transportation used in your organization.

For example, you use the individual shipment document to plan and process the transportation of goods from one location to another. You use the collective shipment to move goods from one or more points of departure to one or more destinations. Separate document types deal with inbound and outbound shipments.

You can use shipment documents to:

• Combine deliveries into one inbound or outbound shipment

• Specify shipment stages

o Legs

o border crossing points

o load transfer points

• Assign goods to handling units

• Assign service agents

• Specify planned transportation deadlines

• Record actual transportation deadlines

• Specify output required for transportation (such as shipping papers or EDI messages)

<b>Transportation Planning</b>

Use

Transportation planning involves all the activities that must be performed before the shipment leaves the shipping point. These activities include:

Acquiring the services of a forwarding agent

Organizing the means of transport

Specifying the route for the shipment

Defining the stages for covering this route in the most efficient way.

There are different types of shipment document types to deal with the various forms of transportation (for example, individual shipments or collective shipments). The shipment documents are used as a basis for carrying out transportation planning. This includes, among other things, the execution of the above activities.

Prerequisites

Before you can carry out transportation planning, the following requirements must be met:

For outbound shipments

Specify in Customizing for Transportation that a delivery type for the shipping notification is relevant for transportation planning and shipment completion.

Specify a route in the deliveries.

Specify in Customizing for Transportation that the routes in the deliveries are relevant for transportation planning and shipment completion.

Make sure the ShpmtBlReason (shipment blocking reason) field is blank. You can find this field in the delivery header on the transportation screen.

Once these requirements have been met, the system automatically sets the transportation planning status to A (Not yet planned) in the Trns.plan.status field in the delivery header.

For inbound shipments

Specify in Customizing for Transportation that a delivery type for the inbound delivery is relevant for transportation planning and shipment completion.

Assign all items to the same plant in the inbound delivery. The system carries out a corresponding check.

Features

There are different types of worklists and lists you can use to perform various tasks in transportation planning:

Shipment list

You use the shipment list to establish which inbound or outbound deliveries are due for shipment. After you have created the list, you can

– Create the necessary shipment documents for particular inbound or outbound deliveries

– Specify the order in which the inbound or outbound deliveries (or shipment items) are to be delivered

Transportation planning list

<b>Shipment Types</b>

The shipment type contains all the important control features for a shipment, such as the number range, whether the shipment is inbound or outbound, how leg determination is performed, and which leg indicator has been set for a shipment of this type. You can also enter a selection variant for the shipment type. The values defined in the variant appear on the selection screen when you create a shipment document of this type.

The system supports the following shipment types:

• Individual shipment

• Collective shipment

• Transportation chain

Individual shipment

An individual shipment includes

• One or more deliveries

• One point of departure

• One destination

• One mode of transport
