Description

Table TOIGS4

In this table, you can define reason codes and explanations for:

  • Shipment changes at scheduling
  • Shipment changes at loading
  • Shipment changes during delivery (for example, material gains and losses)

You define reason codes for each action type.

For scheduling, loading, and delivery confirmation, there is a reason code at shipment header level. The reason codes defined for action 'Schedule' can be used at shipment header level.

At loading confirmation, you can use the reason codes defined for actions 'Load' and 'Prior to load'. These reason codes are at load item level. You can use different reason codes, for example, for different measurements using the capture measurement function.

At delivery confimation, you can have reason codes at unload item level (action 'Delivery Confirmation'), at returns item level (action 'Return'), and for gains and losses for each gain/loss line. If you post a deviating quantity (that is, the amount of product actually delivered does not equal the amount of product loaded), the system deals with the difference as a gain or a loss.

You can customize the system to use specific tolerance levels for gains and losses using a combination of action type, shipment type, vehicle type, product group, reason code, and loading plant. You can maintain this setting in table TOIGS5 by choosing Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) -> TD (Transportation and Distribution) -> TD Bulk Shipment -> Define TD tolerances.

When a deviating quantity is posted, you can enter a reason code for the gain or loss. This calls table TOIGS5 to determine the permissible tolerance levels for the reason code given.

Example

You might define reason codes for the following:

  • At loading, you have multiple measurements for a marine vessel. You record a loading onshore and use this for posting. Therefore, you use reason code 'A' - 'A measurement'. In capture measurement, you enter a second measurement for the quantity metered on board. In this case, you use reason code 'B' - 'B measurement'.
  • At delivery, the customer might need more product than he/she actually ordered, so more is delivered. You could define the reason code for the material loss as 'A+' - 'more quantity needed'.
  • If the customer is not available at the time of the delivery, no product is delivered. You could define the reason code for the material gain as '0-' - 'customer not available'.

In the examples above, the relevant tolerance levels defined in table TOIGS5 are used with the reason code as a part of the key.
