IDoc Segments, Fields and Domain Values 

The following section describes the individual segments of IDocs TPSLOC01, TPSDLS01, TPSSHT01 and SYSTAT01. The fields contained in the segments are all listed with name, data category with length, corresponding R/3 domains, mandatory field indicators and their meanings. In the connection to the field list, segment fields that have special properties, fixed values areas or non-R/3 functions are described in greater detail.

Adjustment and Setting of Domain Values

During communication between the R/3 system and the transportation planning system, adjustment and setting of many fixed values is necessary in order to guarantee correct and efficient planning and processing. The following adjustment procedures are therefore used to determine how and in which system adjustments need to be made.
