Errors regarding optimizer engine and TVSS when assigning a freight unit to a freight order

[t_jungesblut]

Hello,

When we assign a freight unit to a freight order (by marking the FU und using the button "create Road Freight Order") the error seen in the screenshot appears:

We can proceed with the process as intended by just ignoring the errors, since we only wish to hand our freight over to the shipper and can disrgard the transportation duration. However, I would like to understand the issues and perhaps remedy them.

The first error/warning is in regards to our shipping point (SP_...). Is there a way to assign the transportation mode rode to it? Would that fix it?

The second error mentions the optimizer engine. Would this be about the optimal routes for the transport? That wouldn't be necessary in our case and could be turned off. Is there a way to do that?

The third error is presumabl easily fixable, but I havenÄt found a way to do it. Could you tell us the relevant Customizing path?

Kind regards

Tim

Hi Tim,

the scheduler (TVSS) is an external optimizer engine same as the VSR(which is usually referred to as the TM optimizer). Based on the error it does not seem like you intent to actually use the external scheduling engine. So you should probably use a manual planning strategy in your manual planning profile that is not VSRI_SCH(includes scheduling) or switch to the TM embedded scheduler.

See tobias.berger Blog below on how to set that up and some additional background information.
