Function: Freight Order Subcontracting
The main purpose of this business function is to subcontract the
planning and execution of freight orders.
Process: Freight Order Subcontracting (code:
MFM07a)
This process allows the subcontracting of freight orders to an
external carrier for transportation.
This process is run to:
- Check freight orders.
- Cluster the freight orders.
- Subcontract the clustered freight orders to carriers
Assumptions:
- In case freight orders must be planned but not executed because
the actual transport is subcontracted to a carrier, you must follow the process
for Freight Planning, as described later in this chapter. An option for
subcontracting is available, as well.
