Hi Kishore,

The distances are in the appropriate tabel?
The rate service is setup correct? I mean whether the transit times in there are available.

Reply yes . Evrthing is fine .

Does this scenario come under multi stop or continous move in terms of OTM ?

Hi,

To me it can be both. But I do not like the CM, because it gave me more trouble then the Multistop routes.
I never tried the route you mention. However I did:

order 1: A -> B
order 2: c -> D
Shipment was then: A -> C -> B -> D
I do think your sceanrio should also fit in this.

kishore,

I assumed you used the 'Bulk Plan' action,are the rate offerings which would qualify for this shipment in the multistop planning rates? This is located in Transportation Planning and Execution>Power Data>MultiStop Planning Rates.

One more thing I just thought of, do you have a rate from A to C?

Hi Kishore,

Were u able to resolve this scenario : A--> B & B ---> C.

I have tried executing this scenario with my rate distances defined from A---B, B---C, C---B and since I have defined B and C under same state so defined another lane from State --- State as well.

I don't see anything wrong with the master set ups. But still I got the message that no Itinerary defined for the geography.

If this scenario is not working then I guess, we can do it only by defining continuous move or defining location B as consolidation pool.

Please let me know ur experience.
Regards
Vipin
