C_S4TM_2023 SAP Exam Lab Questions

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, the load planning function optimizes the assignment of freight units to vehicles to maximize capacity utilization. According to the SAP documentation, load planning can be initiated from:

Freight order (A): Load planning can be started directly from a freight order, allowing planners to optimize the load for the specific transport assigned to a truck.

Transportation cockpit (D): The transportation cockpit provides a centralized interface for planning activities, including initiating load planning for one or more trucks.

The other options are incorrect:

Vehicle resource (B)represents the truck itself but is not a direct entry point for starting load planning.

Freight booking (C)is used for ocean or air transport and does not typically support load planning for trucks.

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, adimensional weight profileis used to calculate the dimensional weight of goods, which is often used for charge calculations in scenarios where volume impacts costs (e.g., air freight). According to the SAP documentation, the dimensional weight profile is assigned to thecalculation profile, which defines the rules and settings for charge calculation, including how dimensional weight is factored into the cost. This allows the system to apply the dimensional weight logic consistently across relevant freight orders or agreements.

The other options are incorrect:

Charge type (A)defines specific charge categories (e.g., base freight, fuel surcharge) but does not directly support dimensional weight profiles.

Charges profile (B)structures the charges but is not used for dimensional weight assignments.

Calculation base (D)refers to the basis for charge calculations (e.g., weight, distance) but does not hold dimensional weight profiles.

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, freight settlement documents (FSDs) are created based on freight orders to settle charges with carriers. According to the SAP documentation, there isno limitto the number of FSDs that can be created from a freight order during its lifecycle, as additional FSDs can be generated for changes, such as additional charges, corrections, or disputes, provided the charge elements have non-zero values. For a freight order with two deliveries, multiple FSDs can be created to account for initial settlements, amendments, or additional charges (e.g., detention or assessorial charges) throughout the lifecycle.

The other options are incorrect:

A (3), B (1), and C (2)assume a fixed number of FSDs, which is not accurate since the system allows multiple FSDs based on changes or additional requirements.

To use destination-based distance costs when planning freight orders with the VSR (Vehicle Scheduling and Routing) optimizer in SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, you must definecosts for distance in the transportation lane (A). According to the SAP documentation, the transportation lane contains cost-related data, such as distance-based costs, which the VSR optimizer uses to calculate the optimal plan based on the distance between source and destination locations. This ensures that the optimizer considers the cost implications of the route.

The other options are incorrect:

Planning strategy VSR_DEF (B)is a default strategy for the VSR optimizer but does not specifically address destination-based distance costs.

Costs for distance in the constraints and cost settings (C)are not a standard configuration area; costs are defined in transportation lanes or freight agreements.

A freight unit building rule that does NOT use default routes (D)affects freight unit creation, not the optimizer’s cost calculations.
