Carrier Department in the shipper company

Dear Experts,

 

  We have a shipper scenario implemented in TM where in my customer ships the product availing the services of multiple carriers. Our customer has another department which owns some trucks and these trucks are used to fulfill the transportation services of the shipper and some external customers in selective regions. At the moment we are scoping the requirements to integrate this department into SAP TM. My plan is to suggest a solution where in, this department will be created as a carrier and added to the shipper's transportation lanes with highest priority. If the truck is not available with this internal  carrier then the next external carrier will be picked. On completing the transportation service the plan is to do an internal settlement between this carrier and shipper as they belong to the same company code. For the services that are rendered to external customers it will be treated as a standard freight forwarder scenario.

 

My question is based on this high level solution. Do you see any feasibility issues  in implementing such a solution ? If any of you have some experience on this internal settlement process with a scenario closer to what I have explained, please share your thoughts.

 

Thank you very much for your valuable time.

 

Regards,

 

Yuvaraj
