In this workstep you define routes and route stages. You also have the option of maintaining the transportation connection point from here.

Definition of routes

Activities

To define the routes, proceed as follows:

1. Check which routes are relevant for you.
2. Define the routes. Enter an alphanumeric key of maximum 6 digits length. Also enter a text description for each route.
3. If necessary, enter further data for your route. This data includes:
• Shipping type
You can assign a shipping type to the route, to the preliminary leg, and to the subsequent leg.
• Transportation service agent
• Transit time
• Transit planning lead time
• Factory calendar, work time
Note: You must have already defined the factory calendar before you can work with it (see section "Define calendar").
• Driving time (transit time minus breaks, distance)
• You can assign a mode of transport to the routes for processing export activities. For information on this, refer to the section "Define customs offices and modes of transport".

Further notes

On the route screen there are two additional functions available:

• Check and compare the route values for transit time, driving time, and distance with the total for the respective values in the route stages.

  Here the system checks whether the value total for the transit time in the stages is greater or the same as the value in the route. In the case of the driving time and the distance, the system checks whether for the transit time the values total in the stages is exactly the same as the value in the route.

• Copying values total in the route stages into the value in the route

To initiate the check, select all the routes that you want to check and then select "Check." After the check, only those routes remain selected where the system has found inconsistencies between the values in the route and the values in the stages. You now have the option of copying the totaled values from the route stages by leaving the routes with inconsistencies as they are and by selecting "Copy values." The values of the route are overwritten by the values from the stages.

Definition of route stages

On the screen for the definition of the route stages, you have two display options. Double-column display shows the beginning point and the destination point of the stage. You select this display if stages of type 2 (load transfer point) or type 3 (border crossing point) exist. Single-column display is advisable if the route only contains stages of type 1 (transportation) and no inconsistencies occur. In single-column display, only the beginning pointis displayed since the beginning point of the next stage is the destination point of the previous stage. The destination point does not, therefore, have to be displayed and there is more room for detailed information, such as the shipping type, transportation service agent, total duration, and so on.

Activities

To define the route stages, proceed as follows:

1. Check which stages are relevant for you.
2. Define the stages.

   Enter the beginning point and, if required, the destination point. To enter a point between the other points, position the cursor on the point in front of which you wish to insert a new one and select Insert. To create a new point, select Create.

3. Maintain the detailed information of the stage. For example, you can specify the transportation service agent, the distance, the shipping type, or the driving time.

Further notes

For maintenance of detailed information, you can have values proposed, such as the total duration, distance, etc. from other routes. The system checks all stages in other routes that have the same beginning and destination points, and perhaps also have the same shipping type, transportation service agent, leg indicator, and stage type, if the respective entries were made. You can display default values for all values of all stages, or only for special stages or for certain parameters, such as distance and unit. It is possible to select lines as well as columns. If you select both individual stages as well as individual parameters and default values, values are proposed only for the intersection selection values. If, for example, you select stage 3 and the columns for distance and unit, and then choose the value default, the system proposes only the distance (with unit) for stage 3, if the value was already maintained in another route.

Note about automatic shipment

Select the entries you want shipped and then choose Table view -> Shipment. You can still check the contents of these entries and then either transfer them into the transfer order you created or delete them.
