SAP C_S4TM_2023 Practice Test Questions Answers

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, transportation allocations define the capacity or volume assigned to specific transportation lanes and means of transport. For a freight order with means of transportBfrom transportation zone4to transportation zone5, the system considers allocations that match the transportation path and means of transport, including intermediate zones in the hierarchy. Assuming a standard transportation zone hierarchy where zones are nested (e.g., zone 1 is a parent zone containing zones 2, 3, 4, and 5), the relevant allocations are:

Orientation: Within; From: 1; To: 1; Means of transport: B (C)is consumed because zone 1 is a parent zone that includes zones 4 and 5, and the freight order uses means of transport B.

Orientation: Along; From: 4; To: 5; Means of transport: C (D)is consumed because, although the means of transport is C, the allocation is directly relevant to the route from zone 4 to zone 5. In SAP TM, allocations for specific routes may be considered even if the means of transport differs, depending on configuration.

Orientation: Along; From: 2; To: 3; Means of transport: B (E)is consumed because the freight order’s path from zone 4 to zone 5 may pass through zones 2 and 3 (based on the hierarchy), and it uses means of transport B.

The other options are incorrect:

Orientation: Along; From: 4; To: 2; Means of transport: A (A)is irrelevant because it uses means of transport A and does not match the destination (zone 5).

Orientation: Within; From: 1; To: 1; Means of transport: A (B)is irrelevant because it uses means of transport A, not B.

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, forwarding orders in LSP scenarios contain item hierarchies with categories like passive vehicle, package, service, and product. According to the SAP documentation, theservice (C)item category is not considered in subsequent execution documents (e.g., freight orders or freight bookings). Service items represent non-physical services (e.g., customs clearance) and are used for costing or documentation in the forwarding order but are not relevant to execution documents, which focus on physical goods and equipment.

The other options are incorrect:

Passive vehicle (A)represents equipment like trailers and is included in execution documents for transport planning.

Package (B)represents packaging units and is considered in execution documents for load planning.

Product (D)represents the goods being transported and is critical in execution documents.

In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, thepartner determination profileis used to define how business partners, such as the ordering party, are determined for a freight order based on specific criteria, such as the consignee’s ID. According to the SAP documentation, the partner determination profile is customized for the freight order type to automatically assign partners (e.g., a forwarding house as the ordering party) based on predefined rules or conditions. This ensures that the correct forwarding house is selected based on the consignee’s ID.

The other options are incorrect:

Shipper/consignee determination (A)is not a standard configuration object in SAP TM; partner determination handles these roles.

Organizational unit determination condition (B)is used for determining organizational units, not business partners like the ordering party.

Creation strategy (D)relates to how freight orders are created (e.g., automatic or manual), not partner assignment.

In a side-by-side scenario integrating SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management with sales orders and outbound deliveries, the process is as follows:

Initially, 30 freight units are created from one sales order (1 freight unit per item).

During planning, these are assigned to 3 trucks (10 freight units per truck).

Delivery creation is triggered based on the planning result, and during packaging, up to 3 items can be packed into 1 case. Since each freight unit corresponds to one sales order item, 3 items per case means 3 freight units can be consolidated into 1 freight unit (representing the case).

With 30 freight units, consolidating 3 freight units per case results in:

30 ÷ 3 = 10 freight units (each representing one case).

Thus, the minimum number of freight units in transportation management after packaging is10. According to the SAP documentation, freight units can be consolidated during the packaging process in integration scenarios, reducing the number of freight units while maintaining the planning result (assignment to trucks).

The other options are incorrect:

A (12)andD (6)do not align with the consolidation math (30 ÷ 3 = 10).

C (3)assumes one freight unit per truck, which ignores the packaging consolidation.

To configure a scenario in SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management where a single trailer is hauled by multiple trucks (e.g., in a multi-leg transport), specific customizations are required:

Transportation unit type (A): According to the SAP documentation, the transportation unit type must be configured to allow a trailer to be defined as a separate entity that can be attached to different trucks during various stages of transport. This ensures the trailer is treated as a distinct resource.

Freight order type (D): The freight order type must be customized to support multi-leg scenarios, including settings for stage-specific assignments of trucks to the same trailer, enabling the system to manage the trailer across multiple freight orders.

The other options are incorrect:

Forwarding order type (B)is used for logistics service provider scenarios and does not directly manage trailer-truck assignments.

Freight booking type (C)is relevant for ocean or air transport, not for road-based multi-truck scenarios.
