Coupling hour is not considered in Optimizer

Former Member

Hi TM Expert ,

I want optimizer to consider coupling hour which I customized against MTR (Trailer ) .

I have customized MTR combination and created a resource for Trailer as well .

When I run optimizer , explanation log shows that it is considering trailer and Combination MOT however scheduling is not considering the same . Please let me know your view .

Dear Rajesh,

I did some testing and think I found the solution. If the truck and trailer resource have the same location the system supposes they are connected and doesn't take (un)coupling duration into account. However if they have separate locations the system considers (de)coupling and also extends the duration for Freight Order of the active resource. So the solution is to create two locations e.g. Homebase1_AVR and Homebase1_PVR.

Location homebase1_AVR must be assigned to your trucks and homebase1_PVR must be assigned to your trailers Please let me know if you have the same findings.

With kind regards,
