Function documentationDetermination of Freight Unit Building Rules

 

When creating freight units, the system determines which freight unit building rule (FUB rule) it is to take into account for a business document item. Possible business documents are:

  • Forwarding order

  • Order-based transportation requirement

  • Delivery-based transportation requirement

Prerequisites

  • Optionally, you have defined FUB rules. For more information, see Freight Unit Building Rule.

  • You have defined conditions with the condition type Freight Unit Building Rule Determination. For more information, see Condition.

Features

To determine FUB rules, the system proceeds as follows:

  1. The system checks whether you have specified a condition in the business document type, for example, forwarding order type. There can be only one condition per business document type.

  2. If the system does not find a condition or if this condition does not return a result, the system checks whether you have specified a standard FUB rule in the business document type.

  3. If you have not specified one, the system uses standard settings.

Note Note

You can see which FUB rule the system has used in the freight unit.
