Hi Friends,.
I want to know how to update the transit route,transit time in SAP. Also route scheduling
In my company finished products is sent to either mother go-down or any of the 33 depots If it is bulk volume.
PR is created based on the sales planning. Excise invoice is made at the factory level.
How to define the routes for this process.I'm ready to give more info on that.How system can display the transit time for each shipment from factory or from mother go-down.
Forgive my newness in SAP
Thanks in advance.

Hi
In the definition of routes and stages (tcode 0VTC) you can set the transit duration in days for each route.
I hope this helps you

Transportation Planning in Logistics Execution

Hi Friends,
As of now in our company we aren't using transportation planning in Logistics Execution for shipments from mother go-down to Depot (33 in Number) and also from factory to Depot.
How to dynamically update the Transti time and transit route in SAP R/3 ECC 5.?
I have defined OVTB,OVTA,OVTD,OVTC in define routes and also OVR1,OVSY etc in route determination in master data.
How to use those information to get update for tranit time dynamically?
I'm ready to give more info on this. Thanks in advance.

Arasu

Transit time is pre-defined in the route. Based on your route determination (essentially, departure and receiving zones), the pertinent route is selected that invokes the calculation of the dates including the planned GI and delivery date. So, essentially, the transit time is pre-defined so to calculate these dates.
Not sure what you mean by 'dynamic' calculation of the transit time as oppose to manually entering the time during route creation.

What are the functionalities provided by SAP ECC 6.0 (Logistics Execution) for inward and outward transportation?

The Transportation Module provides a very detailed functionality to capture & control the transportation both inward and outward. However there is a set of transaction codes in SAP ECC 6.0 which may provide some functionality on transportation.
Can Logistics Execution provide some basic control in the absence of Transportation Module? Also what are the advantages Transportation Management module provides over Logistics Execution in SAP ECC 6.0?

Hello Prasad,
For ESS and MSS you do not require special data from the backend side, If a person has master data maintained in PA30, He can see his personal details in ESS, For that employee should maintain the Portal user id in Infotype 0105 , subtyp0001.
With that userid he can able to enter the portal and maintain his details. Same is the case for MSS , Manager should have maintained 0105 subtype 0001. and he can see the details of his employees in MSS application.
For ESS you need to have Portal
SAP_ESS
PCUI_GP
BP for ESS
You can check the following link :
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/HOWTOGETRIDOFSPSTACKMISMATCHISSUES
about the compatibility of Support Packages..
All the above mentioned package should be deployed on Eneterprise Portal.
You can search on various blogs also about this information.

Can I register operation breakes in Logistics execution module of SAP

Good Morning,
We are making a SAP implementation in our company, there is a logistics operation covering on this implementation and so far we have not found how to record this breakes in the logistics operation in logistics execution module, we need to record a reason for the break, the beginning date-time and the end date-time and have a text field for further information.
As an operation break i mean any topic that stops the logistic operation of the company it could be rain, damage of equipment, accident or any other.
We've been searching and we've found something in the maintenance module and the production module but we need it in the logistics execution one.
Thanks a lot for any answer that can help us.

hi,
pl check this :
Please go through this document it will help you
1) Maintain transportation planning point through Menu as follows:
IMG Maintain Logistic Execution  Definition Enterprise Structure  transportation planning point.
Create your own like BP01 enter the general data¡¯s required
2) Defining modes of transport:
IMG RoutesBasic Transportation Functions  Transportation Logistic Execution Define modes of transportDefine routes
Use the standard like:
Shipping type: 01
Description: Road
3) Define shipping types :
Basic Transportation Transportation Logistic ExecutionIMG Define shipping types Route Functions
Or through T-code: SM30
PT: 01
Description: Truck
Mdtr: 01
STPG: 0001
4) Define transportation connecting point :
LogisticIMG DefineRoutes  Basic Transportation Functions  Transportation Execution Define transportation connection pointsroutes
Copy the std point and make it FB01 as departure zone and FB02 as destination zone
5) Define routes and stages.
 Logistic Execution IMG Define Define routes Routes  Basic Transportation Functions Transportation routes and stages
Use the standard route and copy it as FB0001 and enter the departure zone and destination as what we created.
6) Defining Transportation Zone:
Basic Transportation Logistic Execution IMG Define transportation Router determination  Route Transportation Functions zones
Use the standard transportation zone depending on the route so as for the example use 0000000003 - Southern Region
7) Maintain country or transportation zone for shipping points
 Logistic Execution IMG  Route determination  Route  Basic Transportation Functions Transportation Maintain country and transportation zone for shipping point
Shipping point be ASH1 and route as 0000000003 which is assigned to country India
8) Maintain route determination:
Logistic ExecutionIMG Route determination Route  Basic Transportation Functions  Transportation  Maintain route determination
Country of departure: India
Departure Zone: 0000000003
Country of destination: India
Destination Zone: 0000000003
And enter the datas needed like shipping condition 01, etc.
Maintain Transportation relevance for shipping point, sales document type and delivery types.
9) Now create shipping types
IMG Define shipment Shipments  Transportation Logistic Execution types
Copy the standard 0001 and make it to AFIL
10) Define and assign traffic zones through T-Code: T_76 (or) thru menu as follows
IMG Define Basic functions  Shipments cost  Transportation Logistic Execution and assign tariff zones
Copy the standard and make it to FABTARIFF and assign our transportation planning point as ATP1, ATP2 assign tariff zone to every particular transportation planning point
11) Define and assign pricing procedures
Shipments Transportation  Logistic Execution IMG define and assign pricing Price control  Pricing cost procedures
Copy the standard shipping cost pricing procedure SDFC00 to FBSC01
12) Assign purchasing data:
 Logistic Execution IMG Assign purchasing data Settlement  Shipments cost Transportation
13) Assign transportation planning point to shipping condition, purchase organization, purchasing group and to plants.
14) Define Automatic G/L account determination:
 Transportation  Logistics Execution IMG Automatic G/L Account Determination Settlement Shipment Costs
Or through T-code: OMWB
Use G/L account 614000 as used in standard
15) Automatic determination of CO assignments:
IMG Automatic Settlement  Shipment Costs  Transportation Logistics Execution Determination of CO Assignments
Or T-code: OKB9
16) Maintain shipping point address.
 Logistics Execution  Definition Enterprise Structure Define, copy, delete, check shipping point
17) Creating G/L account centrally.
Financial AccountingAccounting  Master Records  General Ledger 
Individual Processing Centrally
Or through T-Code: FS00
18) Enter the G/L account 614000 to the company code AFIL
19) Create transportation condition records:
 Shipment cost  Transportation  Master data Logistic Execution createPrices
Or thru T-code: TK11
Enter condition type FB00 that is freight condition type, which is used as standard in the shipping cost pricing procedure.
Enter the price and save it
Process:
1. The system determines the pricing procedure for the shipment cost item-using transportation planning point, service agent and shipment cost item category
2. Calculation Basis
3. Condition Record
4. Access sequence.
For the sales order, create a delivery using VL01N and pick the goods. Now create a shipment using VT01N and assign the delivery to the shipment document. Make sure to enter the carrier and other details before performing the transportation planning and execution. Save the shipment document and PGI for the delivery would be done automatically.
A shipment represents a physical goods movement between two or more locations.
For the system to create a shipment, shipping-relevant deliveries must exist.
You use Transportation Planning to group pending deliveries into shipments and then to perform the shipments.
The outbound delivery documents contain routes that the system calculates in route determination, and a transportation planning date for the delivery.
Dynamic transportation planning is responsible for grouping together outbound deliveries into shipments that have at least the same route, visit plan type and the same transportation planning date.
The following restrictions can be taken into account for a shipment in Dynamic Transportation Planning:
Weight
Volume
Variable capacity
Number of stops
Maximum duration
Loading units
Create Shipment Document
Use
After the status of the delivery is open for transportation planning, it is possible to create a shipment document to schedule the transportation.
Transportation Create Single document Logistics Logistic Execution  TransportationPlanning
T.code: VT01n

2) VT01
3) VL02N - PGI
4) VI01
5) ML81N Service Entry Sheet
6) MIRO Invoice Verification
Shipping docs (VT01) are created before PGI...
You cannot carry out transportation planning or creation of shipment after the goods issue has been executed. Once goods issue is done it means that the material has left your premises so there is no need for a transportation planning after it.
In case you need carry out the shipment documents at the end of the day you could just create the delivery documents during the day and at end of the day create the shipment documents and the goods issue

Prblem In Transportation Module

Hi Friends,
I am working on Transportation module , following the flow i.e
SO-DO-Creating Ship.Doc-PGI-Creating Shp.cost.doc-Invoice
Please guide me for following points.
1. Whether this flow is correct or not.
2. I have problem in G/L Account for transportation because it shows Account assignment not completed status in cost doc.
3. In our project client want to do service contract with transporter , for this what I have to do.
3. There is any facility for shortage of materil during transit.
4. If anyone have IMP doc. please send me on my ID
[email protected]
if necessary provide ur ID , so i can forword u screen shots whether i am getting problem.
waitng for your reply GURUS
Devdatta

Dear Mr Joshi,
1. Whether this flow is correct or not.
It is perfectly suitable, but in case of a cancellation, an additional step is required. So it is suggested that the shipment document be carried out after the goods have reached the destination.
2. I have problem in G/L Account for transportation because it shows Account assignment not completed status in cost doc.
Could we kindly verify if the transportation vendor number is part of the shipment cost document.
3. There is any facility for shortage of materil during transit.
Currently in SAP there is no provision to raise a financial recovery entry on a transportation contractor for losses in transit.
Trust I clarify.
Regards,
K Gopidas.

Transportation module

I am a FICO consultant and need some information about the transportation module that SAP has. Is there any documentation available for this? Also, when using this, will the shipment cost of raw materials be updated automatically in the PO? Any info would be highly appreciated.

Hello FICO MOH,
Transportation Management can be used to plan and execute the transportation process and should be transparent for customers and partners at every stage.
You can get some more information here

Diff between Logistics Execution and General

Hi ,
Can anybody tell me what is the basic difference between Logistics Execution and Logistics General
Thanks
Bharath

Logistics Execution
The entire delivery chain functions in this module.
Both outbound and inbound deliveries, stock transfers, picking, packing, and all other activities which are supposed to take place during the movement of a material from one place to another place happens here.
Logistics general
This link can serve some of the functions of Logistics execution, materials management, and sales and distribution also. This module by itself will not contain certain processes of its own, but it will enable the functions pertaining to all of the logistics modules namely SD, MM, LE etc. In this aspect, this is the module which covers ceratin configurations pertaining to multiple modules like product hierarchy, variant configuration etc.
Hope this helps.
Rwd points!!!
