Guías de Configuración para LE-TRA

Hay una serie de interesantísimos documentos en el sitio oficial de SAP que explican cómo configurar LE-TRA para la parte de viajes y documentos de costos. Me ha parecido muy importante también tomar las partes más relevantes de esos documentos, e inmortalizarlas en este artículo por las dudas de que SAP los elimine o los publique de forma privada, por ahí SAP sabe hacer eso con documentos que explican en detalle pasos de configuración SPRO / IMG.

Guia de Logistica de Transporte en SAP - Consultoria


Recuerda que en nuestro foro hay debates sobre #LE-TRA, si tienes la suerte de trabajar con esta parte de la logística de transportes en SAP, ya sabes a dónde juntarte con otras personas que están en la misma "onda" que tú. =)

Define Routes

The route is a component of LE-SHP and plays an important role in the Shipping process creation and planning, determining itinerary (the leg or stage in the shipment), determines Means of Transport, like truck, train, plane or ship and they usually carry a departure point information (e.g. Shipping point) and Destination Point (port of destination, customer and etc)..

Defining Transportation Connection Point

TCP is the place where goods are received, issued, re-shipped or processed. Those processes can include activities like customs clearance or railway car cleaning, railway station for example. For each TCP, you can define the type (for example: load transfer point, airport or border), who is the responsible customs office, calendar and stopover time. You can also refer it to a plant or shipping point, a customer or vendor or to an address.

Defining Transportation Zones

It is where you will specify all the regions that you plan to cover with your routes. The routes will be from a departure zone to a destination zone.

There are three kinds of transportation zones:
  • Direct zone > Can be allocated to explicit locations
  • Postal code zone > Contains all locations corresponding to the valid postal code areas of a particular country
  • Region zone > is defined by entering a country and region, and contains all locations in that region
You can also have a mixed zone which is a combination of the types above.

Definition of routes

First you need to define the routes, doing the following steps:
  • List the routes that are relevant to your process/company.
  • Create the routes
  • If necessary/required, inform additional data to the route, which can be:
    • Shipping type > You can assign a shipping type to the route, to the preliminary leg, and to the subsequent leg.
    • Transportation service agent
    • Transit time
    • Transit planning lead time
    • Factory calendar, work time
    • Driving time (transit time minus breaks, distance)
    • You can assign a mode of transport to the routes for processing export activities.

You can process stages for several routes at the same time. So, instead doing it one by one, use the transaction or path below to maintain it in a more efficient way.

Determining Routes


To the route be automatically determined, the following parameters are taken in consideration:
  • Country and departure zone (Shipping Point address)
  • Country and destination zone (ship-to party address)
  • Shipping condition (It is informed in the Sales Order and carried over to the subsequent documents)
  • Transportation group (from the material master)
In the deliveries routes determination, you can also add weight groups to the list of controlling factors, if you are using weight as a criteria for routes determination, which is optional as explained more above.

Define Shipment Type

The shipment types are related to the different ways of transporting and processing products, either from sales or stock transfer orders and etc. There are even situations where a Shipment Type for "Inbound" processing is required, for goods coming in.

There are 3 distinct transportation categories:
  • The Individual shipment when one or more delivery documents are assigned and transported by a single transport mode from a departure point to a destination point.
  • The Collective shipment where one or multiple deliveries are transported by one single transport mode from one or more departure points to one or more destination points.
  • The Multi-modal shipment when deliveries are transported by several different transport modes between one or more departure points and one or more destination points.

Cost Documment


Define Date Rules

Here you create "Date Rules". They are used to determine what are the dates to be taken in consideration when a shipment is created, to the Pricing Date, Settlement Date. Since you may have different Shipment Item Types (Item Categories), they may have different rules to the dates, if so, you can create different rules here and assign them to the Shipment Item Type.The dates will come from Shipment's deadlines dates (either actual or planned dates).

Define and Assign Tariff Zones

Here is where you will inform the tariff zones along with their respective postal codes areas assigning to the tariff zones for each transportation planning point. You can use the Tariff Zones in the shipment cost calculation, based on a region (defined by a set of Postal Codes) assigned to a given Freight Agent.

Cost Documment - Part II


Define and assign shipping type procedure group

Here you will define the Shipping type procedure group which is associated to the Shipping Type (represented mostly as the Mode of Transport). The shipping type procedure group is important to determine the pricing procedure automatically that will be used to calculate freight when shipment cost document is created.

Define and assign item procedure group

When you create a Shipment Item Type (Item Categories), you have to assign an item procedure group. Here is where you create those item procedure groups, which are also used to pricing procedure automatic determination.

Maintain Price Procedure

Group Together Valuation Areas

Automatic determination of CO assignments

When the shipment cost document is created, the G/L account is pulled in based on configuration above, including valuation class. But how is the cost center assigned in the document? Remember that I said that even if you don't use the cost center as primary account assignment, it is still used to post statistically.
So, based on the configuration below, the Cost Center is going to be pulled to the document and used in the accounting posting (accrual).
