	<GeneralSection><Paragraph><Link href="/baanerp/fm/onlinemanual/fm" role="package">Freight Management</Link> is integrated with <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef>, which means that you can indirectly control the freight movements of a company from Enterprise Planning.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>The integration provides Enterprise Planning with the functionality to link the creation of planned distribution orders to the generation of <Link href="/baanerp/fm/glossary/glossary#000009" role="glossary">freight orders</Link> in <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>
		<Paragraph>You can enable <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef> to create freight orders during an MRP run, that is, when you carry out the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp1210m000" role="session">Generate Order Planning (cprrp1210m000)</GUIRef> session, or afterwards in a batch session. Choose for the last option to execute a fast MRP run, because enabling <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef> to generate freight orders during an MRP run costs a considerable amount of system performance.</Paragraph>
		<GeneralSection><SectionTitle>To create freight orders during an MRP run</SectionTitle>
			<Paragraph>To enable the creation of freight orders during an MRP run, select the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd0100m000#cprpd000.fodm" role="formfield">Generate Freight Order during MRP Run</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd0100m000" role="session">EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000)</GUIRef> session and the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd7130m000#cprpd730.cfor" role="formfield">Generate Freight Order</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd7130m000" role="session">Supplying Relationships (cprpd7130m000)</GUIRef> session. After you carry out the MRP run, the order number of the generated freight order appears in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp1110s000" role="session">Planned Order - Line (cprrp1110s000)</GUIRef> session in the order line of the planned distribution order that <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp" role="package">Enterprise Planning</GUIRef> created during the MRP run.</Paragraph>

			<Paragraph>To generate freight orders after an MRP run, clear the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd0100m000#cprpd000.fodm" role="formfield">Generate Freight Order during MRP Run</GUIRef> check box in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd0100m000" role="session">EP Parameters (cprpd0100m000)</GUIRef> session. After you carry out the MRP run, generate the freight orders in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm/foc/fmfoc1234m000" role="session">Generate Freight Orders (fmfoc1234m000)</GUIRef> session. You can see the result as a freight order number in the order line of the corresponding planned distribution order in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rrp/cprrp1110s000" role="session">Planned Order - Line (cprrp1110s000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
			<Paragraph>The status of the freight orders that <GUIRef href="/baanerp/fm" role="package">Freight Management</GUIRef> creates for the corresponding planned distribution order have the order status Expected.</Paragraph>
