SAP Transportation Scheduling of Sale Process
When determining a delivery date, you can take into account the times required to deliver the goods via a route to the customer.
The total time includes:
- Transit time: time required to transport the goods to the customer
- Transportation lead time: time needed to prepare the transportation of the goods.
Values based on past experience of the shipping department are entered in the system in the form of transit times, loading times, pick/pack times, and transportation lead times:
• The transit time is the time in days that is required to deliver goods from your premises to the customer location. It is defined for a route.
• The loading time is the time in days that is required for loading a delivery item. It is determined from the shipping point, the route, and the loading group of the material.
• The pick/pack time is the time in days that is required for allocating goods to a delivery as well as the time in days that is required for picking and packing. It is calculated using the shipping point, the route, and the weight group of the order item.
• The transportation lead-time is the time in days that is needed to organize the shipping of the goods. This might include booking a ship and reserving a truck from a forwarding agent. It is defined for a route.
