Maintaining Partners for Stages 

Prerequisites

You can enter a service agent on the detail screen of each stage. In a leg, the partner is the forwarding agent; at a load transfer point, it is the load transfer service provider, and at a border crossing point, it is the customs agent.

You can enter a different address for this service agent by going to the partner maintenance section of the stage. You can also enter an additional partner (carrier) for a leg. Entry of additional partner roles for load transfer points or border crossing points is not currently possible.

The partner determination procedures for stages are fixed and therefore cannot be set in Customizing.

Procedure

  1. Choose Goto ® Shipment Overview ® Stages on the initial screen or one of the overview screens.
  2. Select the stage to which deliveries are to be assigned and choose the tab page Partner.

A partner overview screen for the stage appears. If necessary, you can enter another partner here and change address data in the detail screen.
