| # Freight Order Line Status Overview (fmfoc2601m000) Use this session to maintain freight order lines for the selected freight order. Similar to freight order headers, freight order lines are created manually or are generated, either automatically or by batch, from the following types of orders: Sales Purchase Warehouse Enterprise planning When a freight order is created from an originating order, the order lines of the originating orders usually become the freight order lines of the freight order. Sometimes, however, more than one freight order is created from the originating order, or the freight order lines created from originating order lines are added to an existing freight order. This depends on the data of the originating orders and the existing freight orders. For more information, see Freight order maintenance. You can offer freight order lines to a carrier to carry out the transportation of the goods listed on the freight order lines. When you offer freight order lines to a carrier, you can create a load plan for the freight order lines first using the load building engine, or you can offer the freight order lines without planning using the clustering functionality. For further information, see Subcontracting. To create freight order lines manually In this session you can add new freight order lines to a freight order. A freight order line includes the following data: Item Item quantity Item dimensions Transport details, such as route plan, transport type, and so on. Costing details, such as delivery terms, service level and so on. The freight order header and the corresponding freight order lines provide input for load building, freight costing, and freight order clustering. Freight order line maintenance The freight order status determines whether freight order lines can be changed or deleted. If the originating order of a freight order is modified, these changes are reflected in freight order lines. Sometimes, freight orders or freight order lines are deleted and new freight orders are created. For more information, see Freight order maintenance.

Freight Order Line The position number identifies the position of the freight order line on the freight order. Freight Order Line Status The current status of the freight order line. Related topics Freight order statuses Planned Load Date The planned date and time on which loading is to take place at the ship-from location. This date and time is taken from the freight order header. Planned Unload Date The planned date and time on which unloading is to take place at the ship-to location. This date and time is taken from the freight order header. Originating Order The sequence number of the originating order line. Originating Order Origin The order origin of the originating order. Shipping Dates Earliest Load Date The earliest date and time on which loading can take place at the ship-from location. This date is the minimum date of all freight orders related to the cluster lines of the current cluster. Latest Unload Date The latest date and time on which unloading can take place at the ship-to location. This date is the latest unload date of all freight orders related to the cluster lines of the current cluster. Actual Load Date The date and time on which loading has actually been carried out. You can enter the actual load date when the carrier has provided you with this information. Actual Unload Date The date and time on which unloading has actually been carried out. You can enter the actual unload date when the carrier has provided you with this information. Load Date Deviation The number of days between the planned load date and the actual load date, including tolerances. Related topics Load and unload date/time tolerances Address lead times Load Date Deviation - Hours The number of hours between the planned load date and the actual load date, including tolerances. To determine the total load date deviation, add up the load date deviation days and hours. Related topics Load and unload date/time tolerances Address lead times Unload Date Deviation The number of days between the planned unload date and the actual unload date, including tolerances. Related topics Load and unload date/time tolerances Address lead times Unload Date Deviation - Hours The number of hours between the planned unload date and the actual unload date, including tolerances. To determine the total unload date deviation, add up the load date deviation days and hours. Related topics Load and unload date/time tolerances Address lead times Status Blocked If this check box is selected, the originating order line of the current freight order line is blocked. The freight order line cannot be processed. Load Planning If this check box is selected, the freight order line is available for load building. If this check box is cleared, the freight order type is available for freight order clustering. Related topics The load planning attribute Released to Warehousing If this check box is selected, the originating order of the current freight order line is released to Warehousing. As a result, a warehousing order is created for the originating order. The progress through warehouse processing of the warehousing order lines that correspond with the current freight order line is shown on the freight order line by means of the freight order line status. Related topics Freight order statuses Freight Costs Actual Freight Cost If the freight order line is clustered, this field shows the actual freight costs for the freight order cluster to which the freight order line belongs. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this field shows the actual freight costs of the shipment or shipments that include the freight order line. Estimated Freight Cost If the freight order line is clustered, this field shows the estimated freight cost calculated for the freight order cluster to which the freight order line belongs. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this field shows the estimated freight costs of the shipment or shipments that include the freight order line. The currency in which the freight costs are expressed is the currency defined for the buy-from business partner of the carrier that transports the current freight order. Actual Cost Final If invoicing is based on a carrier invoice, this check box is selected automatically when the invoice from the carrier is matched and approved in Financials. If the freight order line is planned using load building, this check box is selected when all the lines of the shipment of the current freight order line are approved. If the freight order line is clustered, this check box is selected when all lines of the cluster of the current freight order line are approved. If invoicing is not based on a carrier invoice, this check box is selected when the estimated costs for the load or the cluster to which the freight order line belongs is made actual and final. Related topics Invoicing methods The invoicing process Load, Shipment Load Load The load that includes the goods listed on the current freight order line. Carrier The carrier that is to transport the goods on the load of the current freight order line. Related topics To create freight orders The load building process To use Freight Management for direct deliveries Freight Management in multisite environments Carrier PRO Number (Load) The number given by the carrier to identify the load or shipment. The carrier uses this number for tracking purposes. Shipment Shipment The shipment that includes the goods listed on the current freight order line. Carrier PRO Number (Shipment) The number given by the carrier to identify the load or shipment. The carrier uses this number for tracking purposes. Status The status of the shipment that includes the goods listed on the current freight order line. Related topics Load plan, load, and shipment statuses Shipment Procedure 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. Freight Service Level An entity that expresses the duration of transportation, such as: delivery within twelve hours. A freight service level (optional) is used as follows: As a factor that determines the transportation costs of a load. As a factor that determines the freight rate of a freight order. Related topics The use of freight services levels Delivery Terms The agreements with the business partner, concerning the way the goods are delivered. Relevant information is printed on various order documents. Freight Order Cluster Freight Order Cluster This field shows the freight order cluster to which the current freight order line belongs. Cluster Status This field shows the status of the freight order cluster to which the current freight order line belongs. Carrier The carrier of the freight order cluster associated with the current freight order line. Related topics Subcontracting Freight Service Level The freight service level of the freight order cluster associated with the current freight order line. Related topics The use of freight services levels Delivery Terms The delivery terms of the freight order cluster associated with the current freight order line. Currency A generally accepted medium of exchange such as coins, treasury notes, and banknotes. The following currency types are available in LN: Home currency, which is used internally by companies to calculate costs, record budgets, and register tax amounts Transaction currency, which is used in transactions with business partners, such as orders and invoices Text If this check box is selected, additional information is available for the current freight order line. Shipping Office The shipping office to which the freight order header of the current freight order line belongs. Related topics The use of shipping offices and planning groups Freight order grouping To use Freight Management for direct deliveries Originating Order Line The position number of the originating order line. Reference To be Replanned If this check box is selected, the current freight order line must be replanned. If a freight order line was changed after a load plan was created for the freight order line, the freight order line must be replanned. Single Shipment If this check box is selected, a single shipment is created for the current freight order line. This shipment only includes shipment lines derived from the current freight order line. If the capacity of the vehicles defined for the applicable transport means group is insufficient, more shipments can be created to divide the goods over the required number of vehicles. However, even then the shipments will only contain shipment lines created from the current freight order line. A single shipment freight order line is planned as a single shipment, even if you select a different planning algorithm in the Generate Plan (fmlbd0280m000) session. Single shipments are created by means of the direct shipping planning method. If a freight order line for which the Single Shipment check box is selected is clustered, the cluster is made up of this freight order line only. A freight order line is available for clustering if the Load Planning check box is cleared for the freight order line. Print Freight Orders Starts the Print Freight Orders (fmfoc2400m000) session.
