SAP TM: Do I need to create Transport Planning Point from LE in the new TM Embedded?

[mcaratti]

Hi TM experts,

I'm starting to configure in SAP TM embedded 1909 and I am not sure about this customizing point, and If is still mandatory for TM. If the answer is yes, Which one will be the configuration point in TM?

SPRO -> IMG –> Enterprise Structure –> Definition –> Logistics Execution –> Maintain Transportation Planning Point.

Thanks!

Hello mcaratti

The short answer is - no, you don't need to create a transportation planning point for embedded TM.

Background - TM doesn't use ERP organizational structures, including transportation planning points. Instead, TM uses HR organization, transaction PPOME.

TM configuration sits mainly under Transportation Management SPRO node.

Best regards

Thanks!

That's the part that I didn't find or I am not sure, that unit in ECC is replaced for some structure in the PPOME? It's using profiles or employees to my planning structure?

I have a configuration that only includes Purchase Org.Unit (because this is the only scenario I need).

Thanks again..

mcaratti There are no 1:1 equivalents of ERP org. structures in TM. TM is organized differently - see Organizational Management

The question is about transportation planning point, not about shipping point!

Thanks! I know that documentation, for solving this case I was having a doubt between Structure Organization and some data using in ECC ( transportation planning point).

Thanks for always giving me fast answers!
