- 06is a document of transportation request based on internal company documents, such as purchase orders, sales orders, or transfer orders. It defines WHAT needs to be transported, where the goods are to be picked up, and where they need to be delivered, while also specifying the shipper and the consignee. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_a283733b839c424e843b473c6a65fd8d~mv2.png To transport something from one place to another in the TMS module, you need to create a Transport Request. The request can be created for any Business Central document, whether it has been posted or not. A Transport Request serves as an assignment or instruction, indicating that these specific items need to be delivered from this location to that destination. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_58e60a5f626c44d7aaf25eeaf43db225~mv2.png Transport Request is a document used to initiate a request for organizing the transportation of goods from one point to another. It serves as a formal request for transportation services. This document can include line items from various source documents, but they are grouped based on the principle of moving from point A to point B. It does not include complex routes or multiple stops, focusing solely on straightforward point-to-point transport requests. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_9d8d2692fe064cb28470837c14652575~mv2.png The Transport Request allows grouping source documents based on the warehouse from which goods will be shipped or received. The connection is made at the line level, as in Business Central, different lines within the same document can be associated with different warehouses. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_959bd2c932b04c3ca82e65b70ade660b~mv2.png The Transport Request allows grouping source documents based on the destination address where the delivery is to be made, within a scenario where goods are shipped from a single warehouse to a single customer, but with different delivery addresses for each order. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_e981b903c42740508e8e3c30e30db0ad~mv2.png The key parameters of a Transport Request are the pickup and drop-off locations—where the goods are coming from and where they are going. The Shipper and Consignee can be our warehouse, a customer, or a vendor, offering flexibility to meet various transportation needs. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_d241f27a70d04114b0ce4f7a546c3eed~mv2.png The Transport Request leverages MAP Location data, matched with warehouses, suppliers, customers, or client and supplier addresses, to visualize the transportation route. This provides greater clarity and accuracy when planning the route. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_190ae0f1e90047ea883dd123bc1404fe~mv2.png The Transport Request offers powerful tools for estimating both the duration and distance of the transportation, ensuring precise planning and efficient execution. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_15d6c34afa8a43c58e6178e32b113cf9~mv2.png You can provide additional information about the loading and unloading locations that may be useful for the driver, such as the gate and the loading sequence. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_8a01668b07104fd5b372819b1241c088~mv2.png The Transport Request includes line items from source documents and gives you the flexibility to adjust the quantities for the current transportation, allowing for multiple deliveries when needed by one source document. If the goods are packed into logistical units, that information is clearly displayed, ensuring seamless and organized transportation planning. https://static.wixstatic.com/media/3c9630_a323594a0a5b4fac9b3e9edccaa9ef2a~mv2.png
