Freight Management Parameter Overview

Each of the main functional areas in Freight uses its own parameters settings. The parameters of each functional area are grouped in a separate session. The following parameter groups are available:

  • FMD - Master data
    The default measuring units that are referenced by most functional areas of Freight. You can define master data parameters in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session.
  • FOC - Freight order control parameters
    Freight order control parameters include settings for freight order, freight order line, and freight order cluster maintenance. You can define freight order control parameters in the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session.
  • LBD - Load building parameters
    Load building parameters control the way the load building engine works. You can define load building parameters in the Freight Planning Parameters (fmlbd0100m000) session.
  • FRC - freight rates and costs parameters
    Freight rates and costs parameters include settings for freight cost calculations for load building and freight order clustering. You can define freight rates and costs parameters in the Freight Rates and Costs Parameters (fmfrc0100m000) session.
  • FRI - Freight invoicing parameters
    Freight invoicing parameters control the way invoice amounts are calculated for shipments, loads, and freight order clusters. You can define freight invoicing parameters in the Freight Invoicing Parameters (fmfri0100m000) session.
