Transport Means Group (fmfmd0650m000)Use this session to view and maintain transport means groups. In addition to a unique identifying code and a description, a transport means group consists of a few general details and capacity details. The general details refer to the following properties:
The capacity details refer to the loading capacity of individual means of transport that belongs to a transport means group. Note The default value 0.0000 in a capacity field in the Capacity group box means that the current transport means group is not available for load building or rough planning using this capacity unit. If you enter 999999 for a capacity unit, the capacity is limitless for the current transport means group, which means that this capacity will never be a planning constraint.
Transport Means Group A classification used to group means of transport, such as:
For each group, properties are defined, such as:
Each means of transport defined in Freight belongs to a transport means group. For example, transport means group: Vans, means of transport: van with licence number XX333444 . General Transport Category The transport category of the transport means group. Maximum Planning Percentage The maximum planning percentage is the percentage of the
available loading capacity that can be utilized. The available loading capacity
is the average loading capacity of means of transport that belong to the
current transport means group. You can change the default value of 100%. Combination Code The combination code for the current transport means group. If you select a combination
code, the current transport means group is only available for items with the
same combination code. Transport Type The transport type for the current transport means group. If you select a transport
type, the current transport means group is only available for items with the
same transport type. Text If this check box is selected, additional information
about the transport means group is available. Average Speed The default time unit for hours. The default time unit for
hours is set in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Average Speed The distance unit that is used to express the average speed. Load Planning If this check box is selected, freight orders for which
the current transport means group is selected are available for load building. If this check box is cleared, freight orders for which the current transport means group is selected are
available for freight order clustering. Independent Use Allowed If this check box is selected, the transport means
group is available for load building and freight order clustering in its own
right. If this check box is cleared, the transport means group
is only available for vehicle types, which you attach to Transport means combinations.. Capacity Capacity in Weight The capacity in weight expresses the average weight capacity
of means of transport that belong to the current transport means group. Capacity in Weight The weight unit that expresses the capacity in weight. You
can overwrite the Freight default weight unit. The Freight default
measuring units are set in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Freight master-data parameters are mandatory. Capacity in Volume The capacity in volume expresses the average volume capacity
of means of transport that belong to the current transport means group. Capacity in Volume The volume unit that expresses the capacity in volume. You
can overwrite the default volume unit. The Freight default
measuring units are set in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Freight master-data parameters are mandatory. Capacity in Floor Space The capacity in area expresses the average area capacity of
means of transport that belong to the current transport means group. Capacity in Floor Space The area unit that expresses the capacity in surface area.
You can overwrite the default freight-management area unit. The
freight-management default measuring units are set in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Master data parameters are
mandatory. Capacity in Pieces The average capacity expressed in piece units for individual means of transport that belong to the current
transport means group. Piece Unit The piece unit for the current transport means group. Shipment Procedure The default shipment procedure for the current transport means group.
