Hello Support,

we noticed that in the order process flow, the freight order is no longer shown after setting the status "Ready for transport execution" Why?

Thanks

Dear SAP Community,

In SAP S/4HANA Cloud, once the status ‘Ready for Transportation Execution’ is set for a freight order, the consignment order document is created in the system. This document consolidates the transportation requirements, and the freight order itself might not be prominently displayed anymore in the process flow. Instead, the consignment order takes precedence as it is used to coordinate subsequent actions such as sending advanced shipping notifications and handling logistics execution. The focus shifts to managing and monitoring the consignment order, which reflects the freight units and their readiness for execution.

Additionally, after setting the ‘Ready for Transportation Execution’ status, activities such as goods picking, packing, and posting goods issues are tracked and recorded under the consignment order, which is why the freight order might not be extensively visible. This step indicates a transition from planning to execution, resulting in updates within the logistics workflow, and primarily tracking via consignment and delivery orders thereafter.
