Hi Srinu - I don't think, there's much to look into shipping and transportation planning points. Here's a quick overview and you should be able to see it yourself in the test system:
Shipping point : A logical point in SAP in a plant, that will regulate shipping activities for a particular business opertaion. Say shipping point for Full truck customers, or Small parcel goods etc.... is Defined in Enterprise structure and assigned always to a plant. A plant can have many shipping points based on the needs of the business operations of the plant. A shipping points is determined in a sales order in the following way:
Combination of Shipping condition (as derived from sales document or customer master) + Loading group (assigned to the material master) + Plant (as derived from customer info rec or Customer master or material master). You do the assignment of shipping point to these combinations at SPRO->Logistics Execution->Shipping->Basic Shipping functions->Shipping point and goods receiving determination.
Transportation planning point : Is a logical definition, which in business terms relates to the team of transportation folks who are responsible for transportation activities in a plant. However, Trans Pl. Point is not assigned to a plant, but assignment is done to a plant in a way such that the external transportation processing determines which TPP to use for a particular plant, but only for external processing. A tansportation planning group is burdened to create shipments and manage other transp. activies. They will use this transportation planning point always to create and manage transportation documents.
Transportation planning point is assigned to a company code when you do shipment cost set up to report transportation charges etc.

Shipping Point VS transportation planning point

Hello Gurus,
Could you please the answer the following questions?
What is the different between shipping point and transportation planning point?
Where is the transportation planning point assigned to?
Why exactly we require the shipping documents in the business perspective?
Thanks and Regards,
Pavan P.

Hi Pavan,
The transportation planning point consists of a group of employees responsible for organizing transportation activities. Each shipment is assigned to a specific transportation planning point for transportation planning and shipment completion. You must define the various transportation planning points used in your organization in Customizing for Corporate Structure before they can be used to perform transportation functions. You can define this organizational unit according to your companys needs, for example, according to geographical location or mode of transport.
The transportation planning point is assigned to a company code, but is otherwise independent of other organizational units.
The shipping point can be proposed automatically during order processing depending on the plant, loading group and shipping condition.
A shipping point has an address.
The shipping point is used as a selection criterion for lists of deliveries and the work list deliveries.
The shipping point is used as a selection criterion for processing deliveries like printing, picking or goods issue.

How do you determine transportation planning point

Hi Gurus,
Badly need your help. How do you determine transportation planning point?
Thanks,
Paul

Dear John
It is based on routes and route schedules are determined based on the following conditions:-
=> Shipping point
     Where are the goods coming from?
=> Ship-to party and unloading point
     Where are the goods going to?
=> Shipping condition
     How are the goods being shipped?
=> Transportation group
     Which goods are shipped?
     --> For example, which type of goods?
=> Calendar week / year
      When are the goods to be shipped?
If you do not explicitly enter the week and the year, the entry applies for each calendar week. If you enter a week and a year, the route schedule only applies for this week.
You can only use route schedules if you have maintained the working times and therefore at least one of the following times in minutes:
       -> Transportation planning time
       -> Pick/pack time
       -> Loading time
       -> Transit time
A route schedule can leave the warehouse exactly once in a week. If a route schedule runs several times, either on several days or several times a day, it must be copied to another route schedule.

Finding transportation planning point in the document

hi all,
i want to create the shipment order for a delivery for which i need to know the *Transportation planning point and shipment type.
i have the delivery document.
i want to know the transportation planning point from it.
where can i look for it.
thanks
Harini

Hi there,
You will just find transportation planning date in delivery. Transportation planning point will be in shipment doc in VT03.
In VT03, give the shipment num --> click on doc flow or top left hand corner icon shipments & deliveries. It will show the the num of deliveries in the hsipment of it is a collective shipment. If it is an individual shipment it will show the single delivery num.
In the shipmnet doc you will find the transportation planning point.

Transportation Planning point

Hi ,
I have created a Sales Order and a outbound del.
I am trying to create a Shipment by VT01n with reference to my Del doc
and want to add this Delivery in this Shipment.
While in VT01n ,i am asked to enter The Transportation Planing point.
Where do i get this value ??
I have checked the Sales order and the Delivery Doc as well but could not find it.
Thanks for your answers in advance.
Thanks and Regadrs,
Umesh Karane.

Hi Vamshi,
Thanks for you answer.
I have checked in IMG , the Company Code assignment to the Transportation planning point, and also
checked the Transport revelance for the Delivery Type used .
Both assignments exists correctly as required.
Also in my Delivery doc ,in the Overiew Screen : Transport TAB, I see the "Transportation Planning Point Status " as BLANK.
So when I am creating a Shipment in VT01N w.r.t to the Delivery created,
(entering the Delievry no the w.r.t to Outbound Delivery field in the Select Outbound Deliveries Criteria Screen), I do not get this Delivery ,hence could not include it in the Shipment.
Can anybody help me to add this Delievry in a Shipment ?.
Thanks in Advance for your answers.

Transportation planning point for freight settlement

Hi,
Previously with std ECC set up we used to have the config related to asisgnment of transportation planning point with shipping condition, porg,pgroup and plant.Now with TM 9.1 in place do we still require the above config as part of settlement of freight charges considering it a shipper scenario?

These configs are not required in a normal scenario.

Wrong Transportation Planning Point

Dear Experts,
We are facing a problem for long time back. Presently We've 7 plants, 7 transportation planning point against 7 Company Code. Means 1 Plant/shipping point/transportation plan point assigned for 1 company code. When we are creating shipment then we are including outbound deliveries in shipment but the problem is some users including different outbound deliveries in different companies shipment ans system is taking save. Expl. Outbound delivery of Company X is including in shipment of Company Code/TPP Y.
How can I stop our users to take wrong deliveries in wrong shipment ? or we have to take help from ABAP guys.
Your kind support in this regards is highly appreciated.
Best Regards.
Ripon Kumar Paul

As per my best knowledge there's no standard setting to prevent this kind of assignment (assign deliveries of different companies to one shipment).
One solution might be to create variant for the users for delivery selection (provided you can define a variant which is suitable for this).
If the problem is that your users don't keep to the rules then maybe this is a HR issue...
You can also define your logic via development (try EXIT_SAPLV56T_001 (V56TDLIF)).

Transportation planning pt. and loading points

Hi Experts,
How many Transportation planning pt. and loading points is to be maintained?
Is it to be maintained according to plants?
Thanks in advance
Regards,
shabnum

Dear Shabnum
The transportation planning point is an organizational unit in Logistics, responsible for planning and processing transportation activities.
It organizes the responsibilities in a company, e.g. according to shipment type, mode of transport or regional departments.
Loading Point is nothing but Shipping points which are independent organizational entities within which processing and monitoring of the deliveries as well as goods issue is carried out. A delivery is processed by one shipping point only.
A shipping point can be determined for each order item. How the shipping point is determined depends on three factors:
=> The shipping conditions from the customer master record (Shipping screen)
 For example, it might have been agreed with the customer that the goods are to be delivered as soon as possible.
=> The loading group from the material master record (Sales/Plant Data screen)
 You could, for example, specify a loading group that defines that the goods must always be loaded with a crane or a forklift.
=> The delivering plant
 This plant is determined per order item either from the customer master record or from the material master record. However, you can also enter it manually for each order item.

Transportation plan date calculated in VA01

Hi Expert,
The business wants to deliver all goods existing on a sales order togheter even if we have different good issue dates per schedule lines, probably caused by the fact both sales order lines have different routes. Therefore the material, loading and transportation plan dates will also be different for each schedule line. I understand the system will split this sales order into more than one delivery, because the route is taking into account in the delivery split functionality. This is OK. On the other hand, I would like the system to show in VL10H all sales order lines form that sales order. This is possible to be done if the transportation plan dates from each confimed schedule line are the same, because VL10H takes into account the transportation plan date to show the sales order to be delivered. My question is, would it be possible to align the transportation plan date in both schedules lines via customizing or should I have to put on an EXIT? I have already tried via "Define Scheduling by sales order type", but not succesfull.
Thanks Marcelo.
See example below:
Line 10
Req. Del. Date: 19.03.2008
GI date: 05.03.2008
Loading date: 05.03.2008
Mat.AV.date: 05.03.2008
Transp.plan.date: 03.03.2008
Route: TNLN10
Line 20
Req. Del. Date: 19.03.2008
GI date: 04.03.2008
Loading date: 04.03.2008
Mat.AV.date:04.03.2008
Transp.plan.date: 03.03.2008
Route: TNLN11

Hi Marcelo,
In most general scenario, to have complete delivery we use ship complete flag at header level. This will deliver units together for all line items. There is also one ship complete flag at item level in sales A/B screen. I have also been researching on this and i think this also can be used to ship complete some items of sales orders and not all items.
But you want to have transp planning date same but diff routes, then doing through standard SAP is difficult. This will involve major changes to availability checks. I think wiser and easier option is to touch user exit at save document level. This will help to trigger this check at VA01/02 level.
Also please do consider the rescheduling runs effect when such changes are designed.
If this has helped some way to go closer to answer, please do reward me points.
Kind Regards
Sandeep

Transport planning and shipping condition

What is the meaning of transport planning and shipping condition,
Please explani

Shipping Conditions (VSBED):
General shipping strategy for the delivery of goods from the vendor to the customer.
You can define shipping conditions in your system which corresponds to the requirements of your company. You can specify a shipping condition in the customer master and in the vendor master.
The loading group, the plant and the shipping condition determine the shipping point that will be proposed by the system.
Apart from the country and the geographical region of the shipping point, the ship-to party and the transportation group, the shipping condition determines the route that the system proposes in the order for the delivery of the goods. In the delivery, the route proposal also takes the weight group into account.
Transportation Planning:
Transportation Planning is part of the Transportation Planning/Vehicle Scheduling (TP/VS) application and is used for medium to long-term planning. It enables the transportation planner to optimally distribute the available capacities for trucks, trains, ships, and planes. The aim of Transportation Planning is to load capacities in the most efficient way and reduce costs. Most customers currently rely entirely on external shipping companies to carry out an optimal transportation of goods, which means that punctual and cost-effective deliveries are a high priority.

AK
