You have two sales orders with three items each for the same customer with the same delivery date. No incompatibilities exist. The following customizing settings are defined:
* Build freight units automatically
* Freight unit building rule strategy is "consolidate as much as possible"What is the minimum number of freight units that are created?
Correct Answer: A
In SAP S/4HANA Transportation Management, freight units are created based on sales order items, with the freight unit building rule strategy determining consolidation. With the settings "Build freight units automatically" and "consolidate as much as possible," the system combines items into the fewest possible freight units, provided no incompatibilities exist. According to the SAP documentation:
* Two sales orders with three items each result in six items total.
* Since the items are for the same customer, have the same delivery date, and have no incompatibilities, the "consolidate as much as possible" strategy combines all six items intoone freight unit (A), assuming other criteria (e.g., same source/destination) are met.
The other options are incorrect:
* B (3)andC (6)assume less consolidation (e.g., one freight unit per sales order or item).
* D (2)assumes one freight unit per sales order, which is not the maximum consolidation.
