Assigning multiple transportation units for a single ODO in EWM

[rajesh_tummala5]

Hello EWM experts,

Can we assign multiple transportation units(Each transportation unit is a Truck) for a single ODO on the EWM side(Embedded)? I see that we can manually assign few ODO items to a TU and few ODO items to another TU on EWM side, how can we do this automatically through PPF?.

Thanks in advance.

Our process is that on the LE delivery, there will not be any route information and Transportation planning is done via 3rd party logistics system (Ortec). As soon as LE delivery is created, it sends an IDOC to ORTEC system with delivery information and ORTEC does the transportation planning and sends information back to SAP EWM(may be a REST webservice or ODATA service) with route(s) and Truck(s) details for the LE delivery. We do not create shipments on S/4 HANA side and need an interface development to create multiple transportation units and assign them to ODO line items.

For example on LE delivery there are 5 line items (Can be same product) with 1000 EA and truck can accommodate a maximum of 1000 EA, the requirement is to create 5 TUs and assign each line item of ODO to a different TU on EWM side automatically.

Looks like PPF creating multiple TUs automatically is not possible. What's the best way to handle this? I have been thinking about using /SCWM/CL_SR_BOM~CREATE_NEW_BO_TU to create TUs but I am not sure how to assign ODO items to a TU through program.

Thanks in Advance.

I don't think it is possible. Anyone has any ideas, please share.

Hi Rajesh, how PPF should know which item belongs to which TU? To do it automatically you need to create new PPF action and program needed logic I guess.
