Hello,
We're trying to limit the days when a transportation lane can be used by including a transportation calendar(time stream) to the means of transport. The receipt days on certain locations, depend on the source-target location relationship so we don't want to do this through shipping/Receipt calendars at the location Level (/SAPAPO/LOC3).
Example:
Source A - Target X Receipt days ( Monday-Tuesday)
Source A - Target Y Receipt days (Friday-Sunday)
Source B - Target X Receipt days ( Monday-Wednesday)
Source B - Target Y Receipt days (Thursday-Friday-Saturday)
We've tried this in an heuristic scenario, and it works. But when we run the optimizer, it doesn't seems to take into account the transportation calendars; it just creates distribution orders every day depending on the demand at the target location.
Does anyone knows if the optimizer run should consider transportation calendars, or this functionality is only for heuristics and/or CTM?
Is there another recommended way to model it?
