Leg indicators in Transportation

Can anyone clearly explain about all leg indicators in Transportation?

there are 4 leg indicators in transpt'n
Preliminary leg,Main leg,subsequent leg,return leg and direct leg.
We have 3 types of shipments
individual shipment, collective shipments and transportation chain.
Individual shipment is where one mode of transport is used from source to destination means it would be a direct leg.
collective shipments also use a group of shipments use one mode of transport which would be direct leg.
Transportation chain is where if suppose from delhi to bombay we use truck to transport and from bombay to newyork we use ship for transport and from newyork to washington dc we again use truck.
in that senario first step Delhi to Bombay = Prileminary leg
second step Bombay to Newyork = Main leg
Third step Newyork to Washington = Subsequent leg

Need Clarification required for Shipping Type Fields in Transportation

HI
I am New to transportation module , i come to know that shipping document is controlled by shipping Type if i am wrong correct me ?
when i click the shipping Type i have seen so many fields in that few fields i didn't understand few field which i mentioned below
Service Level , Process control , Leg Indicator, adopt route , Determine Leg , Shipping Type Preliminary leg and sub.leg Shipping point
I know may be it is a basic question please don't lock the thread and also i searched in the Google
Difference between stage and leg in shipping & transportation?
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPLO/Transportation354
I tried to understand by using F1 functionality but i couldn't able to understand clearly .Can anyone guide me how it is useful in a real time scenarios and where and how it is impact
Regards,
Prasanna

Service Level - You can differentiate the type of shipment like Load, General Cargo, Express Cargo etc.,
Process Control - Just press F1 and read "Examples"
Leg Indicator - If the cargo goes directly from origin to destination with one shipment document, then you can assign Direct Leg. If multiple transportation is involved and in each and every stage, if you want to generate shipment document, then you have to assign Preliminary Leg, Main Leg and Subsequent leg
Adopt route - Press F1
Determine legs - Press F1 and go through Explanation of Leg Determination Procedure as it is very difficult to explain
Long time back, I have handled this and hence, not able to give examples against each. Will think of and update in case anything comes to my mind.

Shipping and Transportation Multimodal - Pricing Error

Dear Friends,
I have created a Shipment Cost document with the T-Code VI01. There are 3 legs in the Transportation document viz first through Road, second through Rail and the last through Sea.
The pricing procedure used for all the three legs are different and is assigned in the Transportation Document.
However, when I am creating the Shipment Cost Document, the prices for the first leg is only being determined inspite of my maintaining the condition records respectively.
When I check the Condition Type, it prompts for the following warning message "Fields for Access Sequence ZCON unknown in the calculation base C". This access sequence ZCON is being used in other Condition types also.
The Access Sequence is a combination of the following fields in the table - Service Agent/Shipment Route/Ship.Type/Packing Material
Kindly suggest a solution.
Regards
Vineet Jain

Vineet,
Check the condition type within which you have calculation base.
The Access Sequence that you have used "Service Agent/Shipment Route/Ship.Type/Packing Material"
Could have calculation base as D or F.
Only if you are using Handling Unit you need to specify Calculation Base as "C". (because the access sequence must have one more access "Handling unit gr. 1")
Just check your Condition type - Calculation base setting and your access sequence it will work.
Check your requirement under LE --> Transportation --> Shipment Costs --> Pricing --> Pricing Control --> Define Condition Types and Define Access Sequence

Audiocodes MP112 at remote site not ringing.

Hi all,
In my topology I have a lync ENT FE pool at my HQ and then a branch with a STD FE server (All same site in topology). On the branch site, I have a paging system. In order for the paging to work being dialled from lync, I'm adding the audiocodes as
an analogue extention... as per some forums out there... I tested the ability to create an analogue extension with an AudioCode MP112 in my HQ office with a DID number in the HQ range of numbers... and it works perfectly... I got an old pots analogue
phone connected to the gateway, and dialling it makes the phone ring and voice comes through fine... this is all I need for my paging system. The paging system picks up the phone and then sends the audio through the PA system.
So, I changed the IP and the phone number on the audiocodes mp112... and shipped off the gateway to my branch site.... now it doesnt work... at all.. no matter how I configure it... I just get a 3 short busy signal and a line drop... Everything
seems to be configured correctly. In my call diagnostics reports I get the below. It seems that the HQ FE Pool is sending it to the std server on the branch fine, but that's where everything breaks...
On the last leg of the transport, I get "Analog device configured on an unknown gateway"... which is weird... cause my gateway does sit in my topology fine, so it's
not unknown... migrating the functionality to the branch office I first deleted the analogue gateway via remove-csanalogdevice, removed from topology... adding to topology on new branch site subnet... ran add-csanalogdevice with new IP in topology...
Googling the error below doesn't bring up any results... it's weird that I would be the only one ever getting this error... could anyone point me in a direction?

Invoice Unplanned Costs

Is there a way to associated a different Vendor when using unplanned delivery costs? My problem is we went to moving average price and in order to value my inventory correctly I need to include freight charges. I know that I can put it in the conditions on the PO but for one I do not know the exact costs and two I may have up to four Vendors involved with this since alot of our materials comes from overseas and they change frequently.
Is there a way to enter the freight at the time of invoicing with a different Vendor other than the material and reference the material or the PO?

Hi Gregory,
Not directly addressing your question - but a suggestion as to how you may be able to account for the different expenses incurred in moving the material from overseas locations to your offices.
Have you thought about configuring multiple 'Third-Party Freight' Conditions. This way you would be able to accrue expenses individually for the different legs involved in transporting the material as shown below - all you would need to know at the time of creating the PO is the number of parties involved in the process.
==================================================
Cond.Typ / Leg / Vendor
==================================================
ZFR1 / Sea Freight - Local Currency / Vendor 1
ZFR2 / Sea Freight - Alternative Currency / Vendor 1
ZFR3 / Port to Sorting Yard / Vendor 2
ZFR4 / Sorting Yard to Branch Office / Vendor 3
==================================================
Planning the costs this way ensures your Material valuation accurately reflects the actual costs involved in procuring the materials. Depending on the timing of the Invoice from the Vendor, you may also be able to hold of on performing the GR and update an values in the PO to correctly reflect the values in the Invoice from the Vendor.
Hope this helps.

Settlement for vendor

hi all,
i'm doing transportation and shipment cost in that i have to vendors for a paticular leg,so how can maintain both the vendors in the shipment document and also how will i settle both the vendors
please do need help
ASAP.
thanks
vijay

Dear Vijay,
You can define legs in that route like this
1.First you define the Transportation conenction points.
2.You can define the primery leg 1 with transportation connection points
From Shipping point to Containers place.
Here you can assign related vendor.
3.You can define primery leg 2 with transoprtation conenction points
From Container to Air port/harber
Here you can assign related vendor.
3.You define the Main leg from Airport/harber to Destin Airport/harber.
Here you can assign related Vendor.
4.You can define Subsequent leg
From Dest Airport/harber to the customer place.
Here you can assign related vendor.
I hope your requirement will get full filled
Regards,
Murali.

Using VT04 with distribution centers

This question is for anyone using transaction VT04. The requirement example is for a shipment, containing multiple deliveries for separate ship-to's. This one shipment goes to a redistribution center where it is unloaded and then re loaded on three separate trucks, one for each ship-to.
Will this requirement be met by using transaction VT04? Will one need to have both preliminary leg, main leg and subsequent leg and use Transportation Chain?
What would the main leg be in this scenario?
Does VT04 always force you to have a preliminary leg, main leg and subsequent leg when transportation chain is selected?
Has anyone dealt with this requirement using VT04 and could provide feedback?
APO- TP/VS, TM or 3rd party TMS are not an option at this time.
Cheers,
Ian

Transportation chain - preliminary - main leg

Hi,
Let's imagine we are in a transportation scenarion where i have a certain number of deliveries to the same customer.
Deliveries are assigned to a shipment main leg.
Deliveries are packed in large box and some documents are printed (invoice, packing list,..) and those data are captured on a external system and we create one shipment preliminary leg per large box via Idoc.
Exemple:
We have deliveries 1, 2,3, 4
Main shipment 1 contains delivery 1 , 2 , 3.
Main shipment 2 contains delivery 4.
Preliminary shipment 1 contains delivery 1, 2.
Preliminary shipment 2 contains delivery 3,4.
In this situation, the preliminary shipment 2 contains deliveries that are assign to 2 different main shipment. It a situation that we try to avoid.
How can i warn the user about this situation where the delivery 3 and 4 are not in the same main shipment ?
Is there a way to block this king of situation.
Thank for your help.
Daniel.

No one has an idea or my explanation is not clera enough?
Thank in advance for your help.
Daniel.

Transport of Release Prerequisits and Rlease Indicators in Startegies

Transportation Planning Auto Leg Execution

G'day all
When re-planning a Shipment by clicking on the "Planning" status in the deadline tab, a pop-up window to propose the action "Execute leg determination again?" with an empty check box appears.
How can I force the check box to be ticked by default? This causes problems when the user rearranges the itinerary of deliveries and then forgets to tick the Execute leg determination again check box. Which causes our SHIPMENT05 idoc to transmit with the incorrect itinerary.
Either that or get rid of the pop-up box and when the Plannng status is ticked the system will automatically execute leg determination.
For shipment type we are using:
3. Collective shipment using one mode of transport
4. Direct Leg
Adopt all stages
1. Legs determined according to departure point & itinerary
Please advise.
Thanks and regards
Luke

I would like to do the same... this must be possible without programming I would suggest... but I can't find it neither.

Transport of Release Prerequisites and Release Indicators

How the release prerequisites and release indicators in the Release strategy get transported.When we were trying to transport only strategies are getting transported.

Hi
Number ranges you have to create directly as it is not transportable.
For release Strategy details, all your Release config details are transported Except for the below details
1. Characteristics & values assigned to it ( master data)
2. Class & assigned characteristics to it (master data)
3. Values/ranges inside the Release strategies ( classification details).
These three details are to be recreated/assigned in the client you intend to work upon.

Transport Legs and route stages

Hello experts!
I'll try to explain the task using an example....
- we've a sales order with tow items, the fist one from PLANT 1 (delivery 1)and the second one from PLANT 2 (delivery 2).
- we've a stock transfer order, with supplier the PLANT 1 and destination PLANT 2 (delivery 3).
And we have to planificate the shipment in both plant BUT the shipment to the customer is from the PLANT 2:
Transport 1 (from plant 1):
- delivery 3
- Delivery 1 (from plant 1 to plant 2)
Transport 2: (from plant 2):
- Delivery 2
- Delivery 1 (second leg??
Question: I don't khow how to configurate the route from plant 1 to plant 2 for the customer: route with stages? or shipment types with different leg indicator???
Do you know a similar situation???
Thanks in advance.

Dear C. Bristol,
In the example related by you, as per my understanding, there are 2 events which will trigger (If STO Process is followed from Plant 1 to Plant 2), as the order is from same customer & from SAP & Customer Viewpoint, both line items will be delivered from Plant 2.
Event 1 will be STO from Plant 1 to Plant 2
Event 2 will be from Plant 2 to Customer.
Event 1 & Event 2 are 2 separate transaction in SAP, the first being STO & second being end customer sale. If the 2 events are to be automated as single event, in that case it is a work around & will require Abap development.
Hope the above information is useful for you.

Route has no valid legs?

Hi all,
I am trying to create a shipment and when i enter my route i am getting this error msg saying 'route x has no valid legs'. Whr can i rectify this problem. As far as i knw i have completed the route determination.
Thanks & regards/Aryan

Hi,
Please take a look at following customizing settings and set the indicators accordingly.
You define shipment types that are relevant, for example, for determining the number ranges under Logistics Execution → Transportation → Shipments → Define Shipment Types.
Set the indicators Do Not Adopt Stages and No Legs to Be Determined.

Warranty and moisture indicators

Hello,
I just wanted to inform other iPhone users that there are 2 externally visible moisture indicators that are white normally but turn red when exposed to moisture. My phone has the one at the charger plug tripped but the phone works perfectly.
The problem here is my warranty is now void regardless of moisture not being a cause for the phone to have problems. What I'm worried about is if I do have a real problem not related to moisture and will be told it's not covered.
The purpose of the indicators is to warrant moisture causing failure of the device. Problem here is that my phone proves that an indicator turning red may not cause failure.
You all may want to check your phones to see if either the indicator in the end of the headphone jack (bottom of the hole) or in the small area in between the plug are tripped. if so you have no warranty regardless if your phone has been damaged by moisture.
Apple needs to do something about the accuracy of it's sensors if it will base warranty coverage off this.
This is horrible and could cause some legal implications in the future.
Thanks for reading.

The idea of moisture sensors concerns me a lot. Firstly - why put moisture sensors on the outside of the phone. Most people will get a few raindrops on a phone without it causing a problem. For the moisture sensors to be useful they need to be attached to some vital component deep within the phone. If a couple of drops of water on the casing will cause failure then they need to redesign the phone.
Secondly, we have received an iMac and a MacBook Pro that have been damp (ie. water droplets on the casing) out of the box from new. In the case of the iMac, the water droplets were inside the case too - we know this because when we called AppleCare they suggested opening the case to help it dry out before we used it. We assume that these water droplets have formed because the computer was assembled or transported from somewhere with high humidity (such as China), and shipped to us in the UK where the humidity is lower and the temperatures are low, eg. any humidity condenses inside the box.
I would be very interested to know how Apple can prove that these moisture sensors changing colour were not caused by condensing humidity rather than accidental spillage.

How to add indicators from subVIs to main VI

Hi,
I have a similar problem as well as a question or two about running subVI's. Basically, I am trying to create a project that will use both syringe pump injections and the opening and closing of valves to transport a fluid. As of now, I have a program written for the syringe pump that I was able to modify from an instrument driver from the manufactuer of the syringe. The goal is to just have the operator press a single run button, as all volume and flow rate conditions will stay the same from trial to trial. I created two separate syringe pump suvbVI's, one injects 1mL of fluid at 1mL/min and the second injects 2mL of fluid at 1mL/min.
I want to use the flat sequence structure to run these two subVI's sequentially, which I am having some difficulty with. I set this up so that the operator must press an "OK" button in order for the case structre to read "true" and begin the operations in the flat sequence. Both subVI's work correctly if operated on their own. However, when I use the highlight data flow function (lightbulb on block diagram) I can see that pressing the OK button causes the case structure to read true, and the program to engage the first subVI. Upon opening the block diagram of the first subVI and using the same lightbulb tool, I noticed that the information is getting stuck in the first while loop and repeating itself endlessly. Any suggestions as to why this may be the case? (I did go into each subVI and changed the VISA resource name to the correct COM port)
Also, once I figure out how to get the information to flow correctly, I do want my main VI front panel to display some of the front panel indicators on the syringe pump VI's, such as the volume dispense and tank. I would like to know more information about how to reference a wire to the subVI as previously mentioned in this thread.
Sorry this was such a long post! I attached the main VI with the embedded syringe pump subVI's as well as both individual subVI's. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

galXE1,
From my example you can use the invoke node method of "get all" and it will retrieve all the indicator names and values and then you can get the values you want.
Sorry for not posting this originally but without modifying your code a bunch your quickest option is to use shared variables. If you have important vital tasks they aren't the best but if you're just looking to pass data between vi's then they are you're easiest option.
Creating a Shared Variable - look at single process shared variable section.
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4679
So you basically call your subvi every time the loop iterates to perform some execution and then you can update your main front panel with the newest values. Calling the subvi with a loop in it. Nothing special but it gets the job done. Its not very good practice if you have a bunch of values you want to pass.
See subvi calculations.jpg
A better approach to passing data between vi's is detailed in the document. Its called a Functional Global Variable.
