Scale Base Type and Calculation Base in TM

$
0
0

Scale Base

Definition

Defines how the system interprets the scale.

Use

A scale base is a parameter or a factor that can influence transportation charges. Possible scale bases include the following:

  • Product
  • Package type
  • Weight
  • Volume
  • Means of transport
  • Location
  • Distance
  • Business partner

 

 

 

Calculation Base

 

Definition

Identifies the actual base or factor with which the system calculates the charges for the scale.

 

Use

There can be various scenarios in which the system must calculate a charge for different forms of weights, for example, gross weight and net weight. In this case, both gross weight and net weight correspond to the scale base Weight (W), whose dimension is mass. However, by definition, gross weight and net weight are two entirely different charge aspects. Therefore they have two different calculation bases, such as "W1" for gross weight and "W2" for net weight.

To follow the scenario given here, you define a calculation base for every scale base. This calculation base is the final element in the charge determination. This means that the calculation base is used to determine the charges.

 

Example

For a scale based on distance, the calculation base can be the absolute distance between the source location and the destination location.

You enter data as follows:

Scale BaseD (Distance)
Calculation BaseD1 (Absolute distance between the source location and the destination location)

 

You can define scale base and Calculation Base in SPRO --->

The latest versions of the SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) applications are now generally available, coming out almost one month ahead of schedule of the ramp-up period.

Integration of SAP TM with SAP EM: Take over icons for event status from SAP EM

$
0
0

Recently new note 2088772 has been released, which enables a new feature: The event status icons that can be defined per event code in SAP EM are passed to SAP TM and displayed now on the execution tab as well. This might especially be useful, if you have defined multiple unexpected events in your scenario. By default all unexpected events have the same icon:

icons.JPG

By customizing a specific icon for each unexpected event that is used in your scenario, it will be much easier to check if a specific event has been reported on the TM execution tab.

Of course, it is also possible to change the standard icons for the differnet status of specific expected events.

 

In SAP EM you can define the event status icons like this:

  • Execute IMG activity Define Status Icons (path SPRO -> Event Management -> Event Messages, Status Queries, and Web Interface -> Define Status Icons
  • Here you can define your custom status icon schema, in which you can assign an icon to each event status:
    • You can define a status icon schema for expected events like the standard schema TRAFFIC_LIGHTS

               icons.JPG

 

    • Or you can define a status icon schema for a specific unexpected event - then only one icon is needed for event status Unexpected Event

                icons.JPG

  • The status icon schema has to be assigned to the event codes, for which it shall be used. This can be done with IMG activity Define Internal Event Codes and Internal Event Code Groups (path SPRO -> Event Management -> Event Handlers and Event Handler Data -> Codes -> Event Codes )

                 icons.JPG


The execution tab of a freight order in SAP TM could look like this then:

 

icons.JPG


The note will be part of the following SPs: TM 9.0 SP12, TM 9.1 SP 05, TM 9.2 SP01.

 

Cheers, Daniel
