Function documentationSplit Criteria in Settlement Document Creation Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

When you create a collective forwarding settlement document or freight settlement document, the system attempts to combine the settlement for the forwarding orders or freight orders you have selected into a single forwarding settlement document or freight settlement document.

However, the split criteria arise when particular conditions are different between the orders the system is trying to combine. As a result, the system creates multiple settlement documents.

The system makes a split in no particular order of priority.

Features

Split Criteria for Forwarding Settlement Documents

The system uses the following split criteria when it attempts to create a collective forwarding settlement document:

  • Bill-to party

  • Payer

  • Ordering party

  • Payment term

  • Credit segment

  • Document currency

  • Source location

  • Destination location

  • Stage, if you specify the Stage Split setting in the Define Settlement Profile Customizing activity. For more information, see Customizing for Transportation Management under   Settlement  .

Split Criteria for Freight Settlement Documents

The system uses the following split criteria when it attempts to create a collective freight settlement document:

  • Carrier or additional agreement party

  • Invoicing party

  • Payee

  • Payment term

  • Document currency

  • Stage, if you specify the Stage Split setting in the Define Settlement Profile Customizing activity.

Example

You have two forwarding orders that you want to combine into one forwarding settlement document. You select the orders and select the combine option to create the settlement documents in the worklists screen. However, the bill-to party in the first order does not match the bill-to party in the second order. In this case, the system creates two settlement documents.
