An interface to request the creation, change, or cancellation of in-house transportation requests.
The Intracompany Transportation Requesting Out outbound service interface groups operations that send returns order data to an external transportation management system (TMS). The external TMS can be used to carry out transportation planning for the returns orders.
The operations in this interface are not compatible with SAP Transportation Management 7.0 (SAP TM 7.0).
To transfer returns order data to an external TMS, you have to activate the following business functions:
ERP-TMS: Order Integration (LOG_TM_ORD_INT) - This enables you to make the Customizing settings that control the transfer of data to an external TMS.
Advanced Returns Management (OPS_ADVRETURNS_1) - This enables you to use advanced returns management for returns processing.
You can also activate the SOA Reuse Functions (FND_SOA_REUSE_1) business function, which enables you to use Web Services Reliable Messaging (WSRM) for direct point-to-point communication between the SAP ERP system and the external TMS.
In Customizing for Logistics General under Integration with an External Transportation Management System , you have defined which order types are to be transferred to an external TMS. In addition, you have made the following settings for message output control, which is used to trigger the Request Transportation Request operation from a Customer Return business object:
In Customizing for Sales and Distribution under Basic Functions -> Output Control -> Output Determination -> Output Determination Using the Condition Technique -> Maintain Output Determination for Sales Documents, you have made the following settings:
In the Customizing activity Maintain Output Types , you have assigned the processing program OPS_SE_SOC_SEND_MESSAGE and the form routine PROCESS to output type TRR0.
In the Customizing activity Maintain Output Determination Procedure , you have assigned output type TRR0 and requirement routine 28 to the relevant procedures.
You have created a condition record with output type TRR0 for each returns order type that is to be transferred to an external TMS. To create condition records, on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Logistics -> Sales and Distribution -> Master Data -> Output -> Sales Document -> Create .
