The means of transport have the same carrier and transport means group as the loads. CAL01: Available from 9:00 – 17:00. CAL02: Available from 8:00 – 18:00. Assign means of transport to loads To assign means of transport to loads, the following procedure is carried out: Load L01: M100 is not available at 8:30 according to Calendar CAL01. M200 is available from 8:30 –11:00 according to Calendar CAL02. Plan P01 is made Actual. Load L02: M100 is already assigned to L04 from 12:30 – 15:00. M200 is still available from 11:00 – 18:00. M200 can also travel the distance from City B (end address L01) to City C (start address L02) in 00:50 (75 km / 90 km/hr). Plan P02 is made Actual. Load L03: Both M100 and M200 are available from 11:30 – 12.00. Because M100 is already present in Plan P03, M200 is tried first. M200 also loads in City C at 12:00. This is no problem because this is the same time as the end date of L03 at the same address. If M200 is planned for L03, it must be able to reach City E at 11:30 from City B because of the earlier Load L01. M200 has 00:30 available between City B and City E. M200 needs 00:33 (50 km / 90 km/hr) to travel the distance and cannot reach City E in time. M100 is now used. Plan P03 is not yet made Actual. Loads after assigning means of transport
