| Freight Costs Inquiry (fmfrc0540m000)This session provides
an overview of the Estimated Freight Cost of a Shipment, Load, or Freight Order Cluster. This depends on whether you accessed this session from the Loads (fmlbd4100m000) session, the Shipments (fmlbd3100m000) session, or the Freight Order Clusters (fmfoc3100m000) session. The estimated freight costs can consist of the following
elements, which are displayed in this session: - Freight rates from freight rate books defined in Pricing.
- Additional costs
- Manual changes
If you access this
session from the Freight Order Clusters (fmfoc3100m000) session, the freight cost details of the freight order
cluster are shown. If you access this session from the Loads (fmlbd4100m000) session or the Shipments (fmlbd3100m000) session, the freight costs that are displayed are
determined by the Rating Level of the shipment
or load whose freight costs you are viewing. Rating level: Load If the Rating Level is Load and
you accessed this session from a Load, the freight
costs of the current Load are displayed.
If the Rating Level is Load and you
accessed this session from a Shipment, the
freight costs of the Load to which the
current Shipment belongs
are displayed. Shipment If the rating level
is Shipment and you accessed
this session from a Load, a list of the
shipments of the Load is displayed.
Select a Shipment and click
Open Read Only to view the freight costs of the selected Shipment. If the
rating level is Shipment and you
accessed this session from a Shipment, the
freight costs of the Shipment are
displayed. Note The currency used to express the freight costs in the
current session is the currency defined for the buy-from business partner of
the carrier selected for the current load, shipment, or freight order
cluster. Load If the current Rating Level is Load,
this field displays the Load for which the
current freight cost information is displayed. If the current Rating Level is Shipment,
this field displays the Load to which the Shipment belongs
for which the current freight cost information is displayed. Shipment The Shipment whose
freight cost information is displayed. This field is filled when the Rating Level is Shipment. Fixed Amount The Fixed Amount defined in the freight rate book that is used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs. The Freight Rate Book Code of the freight rate book that was used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs is displayed in the Freight Rate Book Code field in the General tab of this session. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. The
value in this field is 0.00 if one of the following applies: - No freight rate was used.
- More than one freight rate was used.
- No fixed amount was defined for the freight rate used to
calculate the freight costs.
This does not apply to freight order clusters, because
pricing criteria are included in the freight order clustering process. As a
result, only one freight rate book can be related to a freight order
cluster. Amount by Distance The Amount byDistance of the freight rate book used to calculate the current estimated freight costs.
The Freight Rate Book Code of the freight rate book that was used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs is displayed in the Freight Rate Book Code field in the General tab of this session. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. The
value in this field is 0.00 if one of the following applies: - No freight rate was used.
- More than one freight rate was used.
- No fixed amount was defined for the freight rate used to
calculate the freight costs.
This does not apply to freight order clusters, because
pricing criteria are included in the freight order clustering process. As a
result, only one freight rate book can be related to a freight order
cluster. Amount by Weight The Amount byWeight of
the freight rate book used to calculate the current estimated freight costs.
The Freight Rate Book Code of the freight rate book that was used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs is displayed in the Freight Rate Book Code field in the General tab of this session. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. The
value in this field is 0.00 if one of the following applies: - No freight rate was used.
- More than one freight rate was used.
- No amount by weight was defined for the freight rate used
to calculate the freight costs.
Distance The aggregated distance on which the current freight cost
calculation is based. The aggregated distance is calculated by adding up the
distances between the ship-from and ship-to addresses, and, if applicable, any standard route or route plan addresses. These
distances are defined in the Distance Table by City (tccom4537m000) session and/or the Distance Table by ZIP Code/Postal Code (tccom4538m000) session. Note In the Free Distance field of the Freight Rate Books (tdpcg0116m000) session, you can view the distance for which
there is no charge in the Freight Rate Book Code. Distance The distance unit used to express the
distance for which the estimated freight costs are calculated. Rate Basis Number The rate basis number used to
retrieve the freight rate book that was used to calculate the current freight
costs. Zone Type The Zone Type on which
the freight rate used to calculate the current freight costs is based. Zone The zone used to calculate the
estimated freight costs of the current Shipment, Load or Freight Order Cluster. Freight Cost The freight costs based on the freight rate or freight rates
retrieved from the relevant freight rate book of the Pricing module.
The Freight Rate Book Code of the applicable freight rate book is displayed in the Freight Rate Book Code field in the General tab of this session. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. If
no freight rate was used, or if more than one freight rate was used, the value
in this field is 0.00. Rating Level The level for which freight rates are used to calculate freight
costs. The rating levels are shipment, load, or freight order cluster. If the
rating level is load, the costs are proportionately allocated to shipments. If
the rating level is shipment, the costs are aggregated to the load, and if the
rating level is freight order cluster, the freight costs are calculated for
clusters; no allocation to other entities takes place. Rating levels are defined in the Shipments (fmlbd3100m000) session. In the Shipments (fmlbd3100m000) session, you can set the rating level for a carrier
that is associated to a particular shipping office and planning group. Loads
and shipments that are related to this shipping office/planning group
combination and carrier, receive the rating level defined for the carrier. When
calculating freight costs for a cluster, LN notices that load
building has not been carried out, so no loads or shipments are created and
therefore LN sets the
rating level to Freight Order Cluster. Estimated Freight Cost The currency by which the
estimated freight costs of the current Shipment or Load are expressed. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. If
no freight rate was used, or if more than one freight rate was used, and these
freight rates have different currencies, this field is empty. This does not
apply to freight order clusters, because pricing criteria are included in the
freight order clustering process. As a result, only one freight rate book can
be related to a freight order cluster. Freight Rate Source When a rate is used to calculate the freight costs of a Load, Shipment, or Freight Order Cluster, the freight rate book where the rate is stored is displayed.
Freight rate books are maintained in Pricing. If the freight
costs were entered manually, the value in this field is Manual. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. If
no freight rate was used, or if more than one freight rate was used, this field
is empty. This does not apply to freight order clusters, because pricing
criteria are included in the freight order clustering process. As a result,
only one freight rate book can be related to a freight order
cluster. Plan Matrix Definition When a freight rate is used to calculate the freight costs for
a Load, a Shipment or a Freight Order Cluster, the Plan Matrix Definition used to determine the freight rate is displayed. Matrix definitions are stored
in Pricing. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book of Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. If
no freight rate was used, or if more than one freight rate was used, this field
is empty. This does not apply to freight order clusters, because pricing
criteria are included in the freight order clustering process. As a result,
only one freight rate book can be related to a freight order
cluster. Freight Rate Book Code The Freight Rate Book Code of the freight rate book that is used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs. For loads and shipments, freight rates from more than one
freight rate book in Pricing can be used to calculate the freight costs. If
no freight rate was used, or if more than one freight rate was used, this field
is empty. This does not apply to freight order clusters, because pricing
criteria are included in the freight order clustering process. As a result,
only one freight rate book can be related to a freight order
cluster. Carrier/LSP The Carrier/LSP whose rates
are used to calculate the estimated freight costs of the current Shipment, Load, or Freight Order Cluster. Estimated Freight Cost The estimated freight costs of the current Shipment, Load, or Freight Order Cluster. Additional Costs The additional costs calculated
for the current Load, Shipment, or Freight Order Cluster. Manually Added Cost The manually added freight costs of the current Shipment, Load, or Freight Order Cluster. Calculated freight costs can be overwritten by manually
entered freight costs. If the manually
entered amount is higher than the calculated freight cost amount, the amount by
which the calculated amount is incereased is shown. Calculated freight cost amount | 100 |
---|
Manually entered freight cost amount | 120 |
---|
Value displayed in this field | 20 |
---|
If the manually
entered amount is lower than the calculated freight cost amount, the amount by
which the calculated amount is decereased is shown as a negative figure. Calculated freight cost amount | 100 |
---|
Manually entered freight cost amount | 80 |
---|
Value displayed in this field | -20 |
---|
Weight The aggregated weight on which the current estimated freight
cost calculation is based. Weight The unit used to express the aggregated weight on which the
current freight cost calculation is based. Amount by Additional Rate Unit The Amount byAdditional Rate Unit of the freight rate book used to calculate the current estimated
freight costs. The Freight Rate Book Code of the freight rate book that was used to calculate the current
estimated freight costs is displayed in the Freight Rate Book Code field in the General tab of this session. To calculate the freight costs for a particular load or
shipment, more than one freight rate book can be used to retrieve the amounts
from Pricing. The value in this field is 0.00 if one of the following
applies: - No freight rate was used.
- More than one freight rate was used.
- No amount by additional rate unit was defined for the
freight rate used to calculate the freight costs.
Also, more than one additional rate unit can be used to
calculate the freight costs. If the additional rate units have the same
physical quantity volume, area or length, the additional rate quantity is
converted to one unit. In other cases the additional rate quantity is made 0.0
and the additional rate unit is not filled. This does not apply to freight
order clusters, because pricing criteria are included in the freight order
clustering process. As a result, only one freight rate book can be related to a
freight order cluster. Additional Rate Quantity/Unit The aggregated additional rate quantity by unit of the current Load, Shipment, or Freight Order Cluster for which the current freight cost calculation is performed. To calculate the freight costs for a particular load or
shipment, more than one additional rate unit can be used to retrieve the
amounts from Pricing. If
the additional rate units have the same physical quantity volume, area, or
length, the additional rate quantity is converted to one unit. In other cases
the additional rate quantity is made 0.0 and the additional rate unit is not
filled. | |
