		<Definition>An entity that groups freight order lines which have a few attributes and attribute values in common, such as load/unload addresses, time windows, and so on. Combined freight orders are created by the load building engine as part of the load building process. The load building engine uses combined freight orders to create stops and trips, which in turn are used to build loads and shipments. A combined freight order is an intermediate piece of data, which provides no planning information, but you can use combined freight orders to analyze how a load plan was created.</Definition>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000030" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>shipment procedure</Term>
		<Definition>A procedure that is carried out when a warehouse order or a shipment is processed for transportation. In a shipment procedure, you can specify which transport documents (packing list, packing slip, or Bill of Lading) must be printed when the shipment is transported. For each shipment, a shipment procedure is defined. If a shipment obtains the Confirmed status, the documents specified in the shipment procedure are printed.</Definition>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000006" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>shipping office</Term>
		<Definition>A department that is responsible for the organization of transportation for one or more warehouses. When goods are moved from a warehouse to a customer, a supplier to a warehouse, or a warehouse to a warehouse, the responsible shipping office plans the transportation of these goods or subcontracts the transportation of the goods.</Definition>
		<SimpleSection><Paragraph>In <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef>, a shipping office plays a key role in load building and freight order clustering. Freight orders are grouped by shipping office. The groups of freight orders by shipping office are used by the load building engine to build shipments and loads, or by the freight order clustering engine to build freight order clusters.</Paragraph>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000031" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>standard route</Term>
		<Definition>A standard route is a fixed route that is traveled with a particular frequency, such as a truck that visits delivery and/or loading addresses according to a fixed schedule, a rail service, or a boat service. Usually, transportation via standard routes costs less than travel via non-fixed routes. For example, you can define a route like Amsterdam via Rotterdam to Antwerp that is run once a day.</Definition>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000032" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>stop</Term>
		<Definition>A loading and/or unloading activity at an address. This activity is created from the loading and unloading addresses of a combined freight order. Stops are created by the load building engine as part of the load building process. The load building engine uses stops to create shipments. A stop is an intermediate piece of data, which provides no planning information, but you can use stops to analyze how a load plan was created.</Definition>
	</GlossaryEntry>
	<GlossaryEntry ID="000033" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>stop line</Term>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000074" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>subcontracting</Term>
		<Definition>The <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef> functionality involved in subcontracting freight order lines or planned loads to a carrier. When freight order lines are subcontracted, the carrier is to carry out the transport planning and the transportation of the goods listed on the freight order lines. When planned loads are subcontracted, the carrier is to transport the goods listed on the loads. The carrier does not have to perform transport planning for the loads, because planning has already been carried out in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef>.</Definition>
	</GlossaryEntry>
	<GlossaryEntry ID="000075" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>subcontracting instructions</Term>

	<GlossaryEntry ID="000041" Version="B60adoc1" ContextApps="fm"><Term>zone</Term>
		<Definition>A distance or a geographical area. Zones are used to define freight rates. To define a freight rate, the geographical area defined by the zone is linked to a freight amount in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/pcg" role="module">Pricing Control</GUIRef> module. Thus the freight rate is used to calculate the transportation costs of goods transports that take place in the area defined by the zone. In other words, all goods transports within the area go for the same rate, provided that the other factors that make up the rate, such as basic weight or carrier, apply.</Definition>
