Answer:
Definition
The smallest loadable unit of a vehicle that is used to transport goods. The transportation unit (TU) can be a fixed part of the vehicle.
The following figure shows different transportation units:
● Vehicle 1: Semitrailer truck with one transportation unit
● Vehicle 2: Truck with cargo area and trailer, in other words, two transportation units
● Vehicle 3: Train with four wagons, in other words, four transportation units
This graphic is explained in the accompanying text
You map transportation units as handling units (HUs) and assign packaging materials to them. By linking these packaging materials to means of transport, you define construction rules for your vehicles. In this way, you define, for example, how many transportation units a vehicle is supposed to have and the order in which they are to be arranged. You also specify whether a transportation unit is to be optional or obligatory:
● Obligatory transportation units are a fixed part of a vehicle (fixed assignment). You cannot assign them to another vehicle, for example, truck cargo area.
● You can assign optional transportation units to other vehicles, for example, trailer for a truck.
Use
You define transportation units in the master data for transportation. You use them for inventory management in the yard.
Example
The following are additional examples of transportation units:
● Compartment in a tank truck
