How to define routes for freight cost calculation

Hi,
in our company we plan to use LE-TRA Transport with Freight costs calculation. To use Transport it is a must to maintain routes in all sales orders/deliveries. Currently we do not use it and now we have the challenge to define routes and later due to freight costs calculation Stages. There are different solutions for routes. In some other companys we have only routes dependent on the Transit duration, but that's all. They don't use stages and they don't use freight cost calculation in SAP.
As I know routes should describe geographical locations (The way location A till location B). Based on the route we have a defined stage with a distance, shipping type.... That would mean for a company:  They need to analyse all delivery channels with different forwarding agents and so on. Is that possible when the forwarding agent is responsible for scheduling? That means for a company with customer around the world thousands of routes?
Alternatively it is possible to create stages in the transport documents. Is that more recommendable? It would be nice, when someone could post his experience with that topic.
Thank you,
Raphael

Hi Luis,
thank you for the response. My problem is not the technical view. I know how to create the routes and what kind of information I need. The problem is to unterstand how this concept can operate in practise in a company with many different customer.
The following site describes the concept of routes in SAP:
http://blog.tkreddy.com/2010/09/17/understanding-the-concept-of-routes-le-shp-in-sap-ecc-6-0/
A company with many delivery plants and customer around the world needs to forward all delivery channels they have to us, A route describes an area and includes stages with location A and B. The stages are assigned to a forwarding agend. Based on that information I can start a freigt cost calculation. The structure of stages and routes also depends on the situation how many different forwarding agents are involved in a delivery process.
In my opinion it is really a big effort to find a reliable solution for the amount of routes and stages. I am thinking about to use the solution to create the stage manually in the transport document and to use the routes to describe the transit time.

  • How 2 define alias for WD Component / Application

    Hi all,
    There are methods in IWDDeployableObject to get WD Component / Application (WDDeploableObjectPart) by alias.
    But how to define alias for them? Where should definition be placed and what is the format? Could anyone share working example or point to related documentation?
    VS

    Noufal & Bharathwaj,
    Probably there is a confusion here: HTTP aliases are related only to corresponding service, and affects how URL is composed / interpreted.
    On other hand, aliases I mentioned are related to  deployment service (in this case: lookup deployable object part by alias). By the way, they cover both WD applications and <b>components</b> (probably component interfaces and more).

    3-5      |  30
    6-10    |   40
    So anybody pls help me in this problem.
    Here How can I define ranges for that calculated keyfigure?
    Is there any other way to define ranges?
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi,
    Create a Cal.Keyfigure on Total Exp. and use that for another cal keyfigure
    Example for  <1
    Total Exp <1
    for 1-2
    Total Exp >=1 AND Total Exp <=2
    for 3-5
    Total Exp >=3 AND Total Exp <=5

  • SQL User Defined Functions for performing statistical calculations

    Hi!
       I hope you can help.  I just wasn’t sure where to go with this question, so I’m hoping you can at least point me in the right direction.
       I’m writing a SQL Server stored procedure that returns information for a facility-wide scorecard-type report.  The row and columns are going to be displayed in a SQL Server Reporting Services report. 
       Each row of information contains “Current Month” and “Previous Month” numbers and a variance column.  Some rows may compare percentages, others whole numbers, others ratios, depending on the metric they’re measuring.  For each row/metric the company has specified whether they want to see a t-test or a chi-squared statistical test to determine whether or not there was a statistically significant difference between the current month and the previous month. 
       My question is this:  Do you know where I can find a set of already-written user defined functions to perform statistical calculations beyond the basic ones provided in SQL Server 2005?  I’m not using Analysis Services, so what I’m looking for are real SQL User Defined Functions where I can just pass my data to the function and have it return the result within a stored procedure. 
       I’m aware that there may be some third-party statistical packages out there we could purchase, but that’s not what I’m looking for.   And I’m not able to do anything like call Excel’s analysis pack functions from within my stored procedure.   I’ve asked.   They won’t let me do that.   I just need to perform the calculation within the stored procedure and return the result.
       Any suggestions?  Is there a site where people are posting their SQL Server UDF’s to perform statistical functions?  Or are you perhaps aware of something like a free add-in for SQL that will add statistical functions to those available in SQL?   I just don’t want to have to write my own t-test function or my own chi-squared function if someone has already done it.
     Thanks for your help in advance!  Oh, and please let me know if this should have been posted in the TSQL forum instead.  I wasn't entirely sure.

    Hi,
    I think Michael is asking how you would define the Filter in the Coherence Console not in Java code.
    In the Console you prefix the method name for the filter with an exclamation mark.
    In your example you see this
    Map (jk):  filter f Equals getUserId 'Master'...when you press enter you see the toString of the Filter...
    EqualsFilter(.getUserId(), Master)Using an exclamation mark you get a Key Filter like this
    Map (jk): filter f Equals !getUserId 'Master'...when you press enter you see the toString of the Filter...
    EqualsFilter(KeyExtractor(extractor=.getUserId()), Master)...which you can see has a KeyExtractor.
