| Freight Order Control Parameters (fmfoc0100m000) |  |
| Use this session to maintain the Freight Order Control parameters. In this session, you can define the following settings: Number group for freight orders. Series for freight orders originating from warehouse, sales, purchase, or enterprise planning orders. Default values for freight orders such as transport types. Default loading and unloading date tolerances for freight orders that originate from purchase orders, sales orders, enterprise planning orders, and warehouse orders. Related topics Load and unload date/time tolerances
Fields | Description
Effective Date | effective date. In the actual set, or parameter set, the Effective Date field is empty, but the effective date is taken as the default value in the Description field. In parameter sets that precede the actual set, the effective date is displayed in the Effective Date field. If you make a change in the actual set, the changed set becomes the new actual set.
Number Group for Freight Orders | The number group that is to be used for freight orders.
Step Size for Freight Order Lines | In this field you can define the interval for freight order line numbers, for example 10, 20, 30, or 5, 10, 15. Therefore, the first freight order line receives number 10, the second number 20, and the third receives number 30, or the first freight order line receives number 5, the second receives number 10, and the third number 15.
Transport Type | The default transport type that is added to new freight orders. If a transport means combination or a transport means group is selected for the current parameter set, the transport type is taken from the transport means combination or transport means group. You must not change this value. Related topics The use of transport types Multiple means of transport by load
Transport Means Group | The default transport means group for freight orders. For the transport means group that you select in this field, the Independent Use Allowed check box must be selected. Related topics The use of transport means groups Multiple means of transport by load
Transport Means Combination | The default Transport means combination for freight orders. If a transport means group is selected in the Transport Means Group field, you cannot select a transport means combination. If a carrier is inserted for the current item, the transport means combination must be attached to this carrier. In the Transport Means Combinations by Carrier/LSP (fmfmd0144m000) session, you can attach transport means combinations to carriers. Related topics Multiple means of transport by load The use of transport means groups
Series for Purchase Origin | The series to be used for freight orders originating from purchase orders.

Log Freight Order History | If this check box is selected, a history record is created for each change that is made to a freight order or a freight order line. If you do not require history records for freight orders or freight order lines, clear this check box. Performance aspects The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to History data.
