The identifying number of the current freight order.
Freight Order Lines (fmfoc2101m100)Use this session to view all the freight orders that exist for a shipping office/planning group combination. Note Use the Maps section to view the location of the Ship-from Address and the Ship-to Address. You must select only one record at a time. Similar to freight order headers, freight order lines are created manually or are generated, either automatically or by batch, from the following types of orders:
When a freight order is created from an originating order, the order lines of the originating orders usually become the freight order lines of the freight order. Sometimes, however, more than one freight order is created from the originating order, or the freight order lines created from originating order lines are added to an existing freight order. This depends on the data of the originating orders and the existing freight orders. For more information, see Freight order maintenance. You can offer freight order lines to a carrier to carry out the transportation of the goods listed on the freight order lines. When you offer freight order lines to a carrier, you can create a load plan for the freight order lines first using the load building engine, or you can offer the freight order lines without planning using the clustering functionality. For further information, see Subcontracting. To create freight order lines manually In this session you can add new freight order lines to a freight order. A freight order line includes the following data:
The freight order header and the corresponding freight order lines provide input for load building, freight costing, and freight order clustering. Freight order line maintenance The freight order status determines whether freight order lines can be changed or deleted. If the originating order of a freight order is modified, these changes are reflected in freight order lines. Sometimes, freight orders or freight order lines are deleted and new freight orders are created. For more information, see Freight order maintenance. Print options On the Print submenu of the File menu, the following print options are available for selected shipments:
Note If the value of the Type field is Warehouse, the available inventory for the item on the shipment line is shown in the following fields:
Freight Order The identifying number of the current freight order. Freight Order The position number identifies the position of the freight order line on the freight order. Ship-from Address The ship-from city, which is taken from the freight order header. Ship-from Address The address code of the ship-from location or organization. Ship-to Address The destination address of the goods that must be transported. Ship-to Address The address code of the ship-to location or organization. Default values are taken from the Ship-to Code. For further information, see The use of addresses in Freight Management. Status The current status of the freight order line. Carrier/LSP Binding If this check box is selected, the load building engine will not overwrite the carrier you select in this field. As a rule, the load building engine overwrites the carrier you select in this field, if it finds another carrier that offers lower prices and/or a more favorable planning scope. If you want to impose a carrier for a specific order line and you do not want the load building engine to change the carrier, you can select the Carrier Binding check box. If the freight order line is clustered, the carrier in the Carrier field is not overwritten during the clustering process, but the user can, if required, manually change the carrier after the clustering process is carried out. A freight order line is available for clustering if the Load Planning check box is cleared for the freight order line. This field is disabled if no carrier is selected in the Carrier field. The value in this field is defaulted from the originating order, if defined there. For direct deliveries, the value is taken from the sales order. Transport Means Combination If a transport means group is selected in the Transport Means Group field, you cannot select a transport means combination. If a carrier is inserted for the current freight order line, the transport means combination must be attached to this carrier. In the Transport Means Combinations by Carrier (fmfmd0144m000) session, you can attach transport means combinations to carriers. Transport Means Group The transport means group required for the current freight order line. For the transport means group that you select in this field, the Independent Use Allowed check box must be selected. Note that if you select a transport means group, you cannot select a transport means combination. If a transport means combination is selected, you cannot select a transport means group. Means of Transport The means of transport that must transport the goods listed on the current freight order line. You can select a Means of Transport that belongs to the Transport Means Group defined for the current freight order line. If no Transport Means Group is selected in the Transport Means Group field or if no Means of Transport is defined for the selected Transport Means Group, this field is disabled. Transport Type The transport type required for the current freight order line. If a transport means combination or a transport means group is selected in the current session and a transport type exists for the transport means group or transport means combination, the transport type is taken from the transport means combination or transport means group. You must not change this value. Combination Code The combination code required for the current freight order line. If a transport means group or transport means combination is inserted for the current freight order line, the combination code of the freight order line must be the same as the combination code of the selected transport means group or transport means combination, unless the selected transport means group or transport means combination has no combination code. Distance The distance between the ship-from and the ship-to address. For this field, LN can generate a default distance or you can manually enter a distance. The default distance is generated from the Distance Table by City (tccom4537m000) session or the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4538m000) session of the Common package. If a Standard Route or a Route Plan is entered for the current freight order line, the distance is calculated by adding up the distances of the Standard Route or each of the individual legs of the Route Plan. The default distance is used for freight planning and freight cost calculation. Manually entered distances are only used to calculate freight costs. Thus, in situations where you want to charge freight costs that are not based on the normal distances defined in LN, you can manually enter a distance in this field. Distance The unit used to express the distance between the ship-from and the ship-to addresses. You can overwrite the default unit. Default units are defined in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Weight The aggregated weight of the ordered quantity of the item on the current freight order line. The aggregated figures are calculated by Freight. Weight The weight unit used to express the aggregated weight of the item listed on the current freight order line. Volume The aggregated volume of the item on the current freight order line. The aggregated figures are calculated by Freight. Unit The volume unit. Freight default units are defined in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Floor Space The aggregated surface area of the ordered quantity of the item on the current freight order line. The aggregated figures are calculated by Freight. Unit The surface area unit. Default units are defined in the Freight Master Data Parameters (fmfmd0100m000) session. Piece Unit The piece unit for the item. The piece unit is taken from the Items - Freight Management (fmfmd1100m000) session. The quantity expressed for the piece unit indicates the number of items that is held by or contained in the piece unit. If a transport means group or transport means combination is inserted for the current freight order line, the piece unit of the freight order line must be the same as the piece unit of the selected transport means group or transport means combination, unless the selected transport means group or transport means combination has no piece unit. Pieces The total number of pieces of all piece units listed on the freight order line. Item The item that is to be transported. The value in this field is taken from the originating order line. For direct deliveries, the value is taken from the purchase order line. Units per Piece The total number of piece units divided by the total number of units. Units per Piece The units used to express the piece unit and the item unit. Stack Factor Additional Rate Unit The unit used to express the Additional Rate Unit. Additional Rate Quantity A quantity by unit against which you can define freight rates. You can choose from the units defined in Common. Many freight rates are based on distance and weight. Additional quantities/units enable you to define rates that are based on other units, such as volume, or define rates that are based on combinations of distance, weight, and other units. Example 1 Freight rate by additional quantity/unit: Additional Rate Quantity: 1 pallet, Distance: 1000 km Amount by Distance: 10 Example 2 Freight rates by combinations of units by distance/zone: Weight: 10 kg Additional Rate Quantity: 1 m³ Break Type: Minimum
In this example, freight rates are based on distance by weight and volume. Shipment SH0001, from Amsterdam to Rotterdam, includes the following details: Distance: 70 km, Weight: 50 kg, Volume: 7 m³ The freight costs for shipment SH0001 are: 10 * 70 (distance) + 5 * 50 (weight) + 5 * 7 (volume) = 985 Quantity The quantity of the item to be transported. Freight Service Level The freight service level is used to indicate the preferred transportation time for the item listed on the order line. Delivery Terms delivery terms. The value in this field is taken from the freight order header. Point of Title Passage point of title passage The value is defaulted from the originating order, if defined there. For direct deliveries, the value is taken from the sales order. Motive of Transport motive of transport This field is available if the delivery note functionality is used for the current freight planning company. Delivery Code delivery code This field is available if the delivery note functionality is used for the current freight planning company. Currency Use Fulfillment Plan If this check box is selected, LN uses the fulfillment plan. Plan Present LN selects the check box in case a fulfillment plan is present. Overrule Fulfillment Plan If this check box is selected, LN overrules the fulfillment plan. First Shipping Date The date on which the first shipment is carried out. Shipping Quantity The quantity shipped. Shipping Quantity Unit The unit in which the shipped quantity is measured. Freight Value The value of the goods that are transported. The value in this field is filled from the originating order. You can also manually enter a freight value. The freight value can be used for the calculation of the additional costs. Unit The unit used to express the transported quantity. Estimated Freight Cost If the freight order line is clustered, this field shows the estimated freight cost calculated for the freight order cluster to which the freight order line belongs. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this field shows the estimated freight costs of the shipment or shipments that include the freight order line. The currency in which the freight costs are expressed is the currency defined for the buy-from business partner of the carrier that transports the current freight order. Actual Freight Cost If the freight order line is clustered, this field shows the actual freight costs for the freight order cluster to which the freight order line belongs. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this field shows the actual freight costs of the shipment or shipments that include the freight order line. Actual Cost Final If invoicing is based on a carrier invoice, this check box is selected automatically when the invoice from the carrier is matched and approved in Financials. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this check box is selected when all the lines of the shipment of the current freight order line are approved. If the freight order line is clustered, this check box is selected when all lines of the cluster of the current freight order line are approved. If invoicing is not based on a carrier invoice, this check box is selected when the estimated costs for the load or the cluster to which the freight order line belongs is made actual and final. Invoice External Business Partner If this check box is selected, the external business partner is invoiced. Invoice Internal Business Partner If this check box is selected, the internal business partner is invoiced for the freight costs. The internal business partner is the business partner defined for the department on whose behalf the transportation costs are incurred. If an internal business partner is defined, this check box is selected automatically. If no internal business partner exists, this check box is disabled. To enable invoices to be created for the business partners related to departments, relations must be defined between the departments. Relationships are defined in the Enterprise Modeling Management module of Common. Load Planning If this check box is selected, the freight order line is available for load building. If this check box is cleared, the freight order type is available for freight order clustering. The value in this field must be identical to the value in the Load Planning field of the selected transport means group or transport means combination. Blocked If this check box is selected, the originating order line of the current freight order line is blocked. The freight order line cannot be processed. Text If this check box is selected, additional information is available for the current freight order line. Originating Company The company for which the originating order is defined. For direct deliveries, this is the purchase order. For multi-company warehouse transfers, the originating order is the ship-from warehouse order. Originating Order Origin The order origin of the originating order. Shipping Office The shipping office to which the freight order header of the current freight order line belongs. Planning Group The planning group of the current freight order line. Carrier/LSP The carrier that is to transport the goods on the current freight order line. The value in this field is taken from the freight order header. The carrier that you enter in this field is overruled if the load building engine finds other carriers that offer lower prices and/or provide a better planning scope. If you do not enter a carrier in this field, the load building engine will select a carrier. If the carrier entered in this field is not to be overruled by the load building engine, select the Carrier Binding check box. Originating Order Line The position number of the originating order line. Originating Order The sequence number of the originating order line. Originating Office The office responsible for handling and processing the originating order. The value in this field is taken from the originating order line. For direct deliveries, this is the purchase office. For multi-company warehouse transfers, this is the ship-from offfice. Reference Any informative description field used to refer to, for example:
If the originating order is a sales order, the value of the Reference A field of the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session is defaulted in this field. If the originating order is a purchase order, the value of the Reference A field of the Purchase Orders (tdpur4100m000) session is defaulted in this field. If the originating order is a warehousing order, the value of the Reference field of the Outbound Order Lines (whinh2120m000) session or the Inbound Order Lines (whinh2110m000) session is defaulted in this field. Released to Warehousing If this check box is selected, the originating order of the current freight order line is released to Warehousing. As a result, a warehousing order is created for the originating order. The progress through warehouse processing of the warehousing order lines that correspond with the current freight order line is shown on the freight order line by means of the freight order line status. Related Order Origin The order origin of the related order. Related Order For multi-company warehouse transfers the ship-from warehouse order is the originating order, and the ship-to warehouse order is the related order. For direct deliveries, the purchase order is the originating order and the sales order is the related order. Related Order Set For multi-company warehouse transfers the ship-from warehouse order is the originating order, and the ship-to warehouse order is the related order. For direct deliveries, the purchase order is the originating order and the sales order is the related order. Related Order The sequence number of the related order. Related Office The office responsible for initiating, handling and processing the related order. Related Company The company for which the related order is created. Inventory Handling In Warehousing, items are processed by component or by main item. If an item is processed by component, the components of an item are displayed in the Freight Order Line BOM (fmfoc2503m000) session. If an item is processed by main item, no components are displayed. Freight Class A classification of an item in terms of:
Freight classification is a criteria that is used to determine an item's transportation price. In LN, a freight class can also serve as a criterion that determines the planning group of order lines. Freight classes are mainly used in the U.S. To be Replanned If this check box is selected, the current freight order line must be replanned. If a freight order line was changed after a load plan was created for the freight order line, the freight order line must be replanned. Order The ID number of the originating order. Date The entry date of the originating order of the freight order to which the current freight order line belongs. Office Type The office type of the related order. Single Shipment If this check box is selected, a single shipment is created for the current freight order line. This shipment only includes shipment lines derived from the current freight order line. If the capacity of the vehicles defined for the applicable transport means group is insufficient, more shipments can be created to divide the goods over the required number of vehicles. However, even then the shipments will only contain shipment lines created from the current freight order line. A single shipment freight order line is planned as a single shipment, even if you select a different planning algorithm in the Generate Plan (fmlbd0280m000) session. Single shipments are created by means of the direct shipping planning method. If a freight order line for which the Single Shipment check box is selected is clustered, the cluster is made up of this freight order line only. A freight order line is available for clustering if the Load Planning check box is cleared for the freight order line. Route The route entered on the originating order. The default value is taken from the freight order header. Route Plan The route plan in this field is a default value that is taken from the Freight Orders (fmfoc2100m000) session. The route plan that you manually enter in a freight order line is used by the load building engine to create a load plan, regardless of the planning algorithm used. If you enter different route plans in the freight order lines of a freight order, the load building engine builds separate loads for each route plan. If you want to use a particular Route Plan to build a load plan for the current freight order line, you must enter this Route Plan in this field. To use the load building engine to select the most cost-effective and efficient route, the Route Plan field in the freight order header and freight order lines must be left empty. Standard Route A standard route is a fixed route that is traveled with a particular frequency, such as a truck that visits delivery and/or loading addresses according to a fixed schedule, a rail service, or a boat service. Usually, transportation via standard routes costs less than travel via non-fixed routes. For example, you can define a route like Amsterdam via Rotterdam to Antwerp that is run once a day. Planned Load Date The date and time on which loading of the goods listed on the current freight order is planned. The values in this field are filled from the freight order header. Earliest Load Date The earliest date and time that loading can take place at the ship-from location. The default earliest and latest loading and unloading date/times tolerances are defined in the Addresses - Freight Management (fmfmd0110m000) session and the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session. Latest Load Date The latest date and time that loading can take place at the ship-from location. The default earliest and latest loading and unloading date/times tolerances are defined in the Addresses - Freight Management (fmfmd0110m000) session and the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session. Planned Unload Date The planned date and time on which unloading is to take place at the ship-to location. This date and time is taken from the freight order header. Earliest Unload Date The earliest date and time that unloading can take place at the ship-to location. The default earliest and latest loading and unloading date/times tolerances are defined in the Addresses - Freight Management (fmfmd0110m000) session and the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session. Latest Unload Date The latest date and time that unloading can take place at the ship-to location. The default earliest and latest loading and unloading date/times tolerances are defined in the Addresses - Freight Management (fmfmd0110m000) session and the Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) session.
