Glossary (English)

Term Definition

agreement A long-term contract between business partners that details their commitment to conduct business

with each other in an agreed manner.

An agreement can be legally binding. The available agreement types are freight agreement and

forwarding agreement. Both agreement types can be mutual between the business partners.

allocated quantity Actual allocations in the past or in the future, for example, for a shipment order or freight order.

application-to-application

communication

A process by which messages containing information about updates to business documents are

sent between process components in the system.

For example, when creating a sales order, the system updates related business documents in the

system.

association class A programming technique that communicates between two or more object entities.

broadcast tendering Simultaneous tendering to preselected carriers.


56/109

(C) SAP AG 56

bucket A time period.

business document A superordinate term for the categories of the business objects in transportation management.

These categories include, for example, the following:

Forwarding order

Forwarding quotation

Order-based transportation requirement

Delivery-based transportation requirement

Freight orderFreight booking

Freight unit

business-to-business

communication

A process by which information can be exchanged between business partners across company

boundaries using electronic transactions.

calculation sheet A hierarchical table used to calculate transportation charges.

The calculation sheet combines the charge types permitted for a document and the sequence in

which the system takes these charge types into account during the calculation.


57/109

(C) SAP AG 57

carrier schedule A list of transportation stops that you can use to define the actual route taken by the carrier and to

book capacity.

cash discount terms The subtraction of a certain amount (typically expressed as a percentage of the total amount) as

cash discount when making payment within a specified period.

charge line A line item of a charge item.

There can be more than one charge line for a charge item, depending on the charge type and

resolution base of the charge item.

A charge item at the header level of a freight order and with Packageas the resolution base

generates a separate charge line for each package.


58/109

(C) SAP AG 58

clipping Freight calculation where you work through a pricing scale level-by-level. When doing so, the

calculation results from each scale level are added up (= clipping) to produce the overall result.

Example

A load weighing 12 tons is to be transported. The scale levels for the individual freight rates are

defined with the following values:

Up to 5 tons: 50 Euro absolute

Up to 7 tons: 14 Euro per ton



If you do not use clipping, the 12 tons would fall into the "up to 15 tons" scale level and the freight

rate would be 12 Euro per ton. The cost to transport the load would then be 12 tons * 12 Euro/ton =

144 Euro.

If you use clipping, the system calculates the scale levels as follows:

5 tons for 50 Euro = 50 Euro (first scale level)

2 tons at 14 Euro/ton = 28 Euro (up to second scale level)

3 tons at 13 Euro/ton = 39 Euro (up to third scale level)

2 tons at 12 Euro/ton = 24 Euro (remainder in the fourth scale level)

----------------------------------------------------------------

Total: 12 tons = 141 Euro


59/109

(C) SAP AG 59

collect agreement party The business partner with whom a freight agreement is made for the last part of a transport,

according to agreed Incoterms.

The system bases charge calculations on the agreement made with the collect agreement party.

The collect agreement party may also be the collect bill-to party and the collect payer.

For example, the Incoterms agreed between a seller and a buyer in a transport from Germany to the

U.S. is FOB (Free On Board) from location Hamburg. The seller pays for the transportation charges

to Hamburg and the buyer pays for the charges from Hamburg to the U.S. The system uses the

collect agreement party to calculate the charges in the invoice for the buyer.

collect bill-to party The business partner that is billed for the last part of a transport, according to agreed Incoterms.

The collect bill-to party is not necessarily the payer.

For example, the Incoterm agreed between a seller and a buyer in a transport from Germany to the


to Hamburg and the buyer pays for the charges from Hamburg to the U.S. In this example, the buyer

is the collect bill-to party.

collect payer The business partner that pays for the last part of a transport, according to agreed Incoterms.

The collect payer may not necessarily be the collect bill-to party.

container A persistent connection between the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) and the Post

Processing Framework (PPF).

continuous move A combination of business documents (for example freight orders).

The carrier agrees to take on a completely new business document straight after the completion of a

business document.

cost assignment base An entity that serves as a basis for breaking down costs to the appropriate proportion so that they

can be allocated correctly.

These entities include weight, volume, or number of items.

data binding The linking of a data object to an element in the ABAP dictionary or to a global data type (GDT) in

the Enterprise Service Repository (ES Repository).

A data object can also be bound to a BRFplus data object that already exists.

default route The sequence of transshipment locations for a given pair of locations that you can use to identify the

route for a forwarding order.

deficit weight rating Calculation of the price for transporting a greater weight than the actual total weight of the goods to

be transported with the aim of achieving a lower price. Here the difference between the actual


61/109

(C) SAP AG 61

weight and the billed weight is included in the freight calculation as a weight, even though only "air"

is being transported. The transportation consists of at least two loads with different freight rates. The

deficit weight is calculated using the lowest freight rate.

A transportation consists of two loads with two different freight rates.

500 kg of freight class 1 (freight rate is 1.50 Euro per kg up to 1000 kg) and 400 kg of freight class 2

(freight rate is 2.50 Euro per kg up to 1000 kg)

Calculation

500 kg * 1.5 Euro/kg = 750 Euro (for load 1)

+ 400 kg * 2.5 Euro/kg = 1000 Euro (for load 2)

-------------------------------------------------

900 kg for 1750 Euro

500 kg of freight class 1 (freight rate is 1 Euro per kg as of 1000 kg) and 400 kg of freight class 2

(freight rate is 2 Euro per kg as of 1000 kg)

Calculation

500 kg * 1 Euro/kg = 500 Euro (for load 1)

+ 400 kg * 2 Euro/kg = 800 Euro (for load 2)

+ 100 kg * 1 Euro/kg = 100 Euro (deficit weight always with lowest

tariff)

-------------------------------------------------

1000 kg for 1400 Euro

The rate for a total of 1000 kg is much lower than the rate for the actual 900 kg.

Anfangslsung Lsung, die in der VSR-Optimierung (Vehicle Scheduling and Routing) erzeugt, bewertet und

anschlieend optimiert wird.

Es gibt folgende Arten von Anfangslsungen:

Die vorhandenen Transportplne aus einem vorherigen VSR-Optimierungslauf oder einer manuellen

Planung bilden eine Anfangslsung.

Die VSR-Optimierung erzeugt weitere Anfangslsungen, indem sie jeweils nach heuristischen Kriterien

Frachteinheiten auf Kapazitten (z.B. Fahrzeugressourcen) verteilt.

Anschlusstransport Kombination aus Geschftsbelegen (z.B. Frachtauftrgen).

Der Spediteur bernimmt direkt nach der Erledigung eines Geschftsbelegs einen komplett neuenGeschftsbeleg.


Kommunikation

Prozesskomponenten im System versendet werden.

Wird beispielsweise ein Kundenauftrag angelegt, aktualisiert das System die entsprechenden

Geschftsbelege.

Art der Benachrichtigung Methode, mit der ein Spediteur mit seinen Kunden kommuniziert (z.B. E-Mail oder Telefon).

Prozess, durch den Geschftspartner unternehmensbergreifend mit elektronischen Transaktionen

Informationen austauschen knnen.

Clipping Frachtkalkulation, bei der eine Preisstaffel schrittweise abgearbeitet wird. Dabei werden die

Berechnungsergebnisse aus jedem Staffelschritt aufaddiert (= Clipping), um das Gesamtergebnis zu

erhalten.

Beispiel

Ein Transport besteht aus einer Ladung mit 12 to Gewicht. Die Staffelstufen zu den einzelnen Frachtraten

sind festgelegt mit folgenden Werten:

bis 5 to Gewicht: 50 Euro absolut

bis 7 to Gewicht: 14 Euro je Tonne



Ohne Clipping lgen 12 Tonnen in der Staffelstufe "bis 15 Tonnen" und damit die Frachtrate bei 12 Euro je

Tonne. Der Transportpreis wre dann 12 Tonnen * 12 Euro/Tonne = 144 Euro.

Beim Clipping der Staffelstufen berechnet das System folgende
