| Carrier/TMG/TMC by Route Plan (fmfoc1153m000)Note Carriers, transport means groups, or transport means
combinations can only be linked to route plan legs without a standard
route. When generating a load plan based on the pooling or consolidation algorithms, LN selects a route plan,
route plan leg, or a standard route according to which
transportation is to be carried out. For the selected route plan leg, a carrier
from this session is selected to provide transportation for the generated load
plan. Route Plan A network of loading and unloading addresses, one of which is a
pooling point. A route plan is usually defined for routes that involve
multi-modal transport. A route plan consists of one or more legs. Each leg, or
part of the route, can be handled differently depending on the specified
transport category and transport means group. Leg Type The type of route plan leg:
advance, main, or beyond. The advance leg
is the first part of the route where goods are picked up and transported to a
pooling point, such as an airport, a train station, or a port. The main leg
starts at the pooling point and ends at the intermediate destination. At the
pooling point, the goods from the advance leg are loaded into an aircraft,
ship, train, or truck, and brought to the intermediate destination. The beyond leg
spans the intermediate destination and the final destination. At the
intermediate destination, the goods are transferred from the airplane to trucks
to bring the goods to their final destination.
A route plan may
consist of more than one advance and beyond legs, but one main leg. The first leg that
you define is always of the main type. Line The identifying number of the leg. Route Plan Sequence The sequence number of an advance or beyond leg. Carrier/LSP The carrier that is to carry out
the transportation of the goods. Transport Means Group You can select one of the transport means groups that
are defined for the selected carrier. For the transport means group that you
select in this field, the Independent Use Allowed check box must be selected. Transport Means Combination 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 leg, the
transport means combination must be attached to this carrier. In the Transport Means Combinations by Carrier/LSP (fmfmd0144m000) session, you can attach
transport means combinations to carriers. | |
