This page describes how to use Transit feature in Axiodis and corresponding key points.

Goals
...
Manage transit constraints for the system to be able to define automatically and/or manually which deliveries have to transited by a platform or have to be delivered directly to final logistics sites.
...
- Delivery case: Tours from the cross-dock platform to one or more destination sites (usually logistics sites, stores, etc.).
- Collection case: Tour from the cross-dock platform to a destination site (repository).

Data and constraints

Define Defining logistics sites as transit platforms is available in the "Data and Constraints" module, "Logistic sites / Logistic sites" screen :
Manage constraints in transit platforms is available in the "Data and Constraints" module, "Logistic sites / Transit platforms" screen :
For each transit platform, it's possible to define which logistics can be associated to apply a transit using corresponding options :
: Add logistics sites to the current platform
: Delete logistics sites from the current platform
| Reference | Attribute | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Logistics sites | List of the logistic |
sites for which concern by the current platform transit. It is possible to assign logistics sites with one or several transit platform | ||
| 2 | Type | Type of the transit: Imposed or allowed
|
| 3 | Product families | Possible specialization of the transit on one or several families of product to carry out the transit
|
| 4 | Weight maximal to transit | Quantities of weight in Axiodis: beyond this quantity, transit is no longer applied by the soler For a mandatory transit from the current site to the current platform, if the total quantity UP to be delivered to this site, any product merged, is greater than this value, then the system does not make the transit yet mandatory, and will deliver directly. It is enough that one of these 2 thresholds (volume/weight) is exceeded for that one cancels the obligatory transit. |
| 5 | Volume maximal to transit | Idem line 4 but applied for volume quantity |
| 6 | Creation of final operation | When |
transit is |
applied to this transit platform, the system must create the final operation :
If the option is checked, the system automatically creates the final operation. If the option is not checked, the system does not create the final operation | ||
| 7 | Minimum time limit | The minimum time is the minimum time to wait before the departure of the transit platform to the customer site (change of vehicle, unloading - loading ...) / deposit site |
| 8 | Maximum time limit | The maximum time limit is the maximum time to wait before the departure of the transit platform to the customer site (change of vehicle, unloading - loading ...) / deposit site |
Transit feature can be activated/ disactivated deactivated in "Data and Constraints" module, "Optimization profiles / Routes optimization profiles" screen :
Planning module
...
- The system (solver) checks the sites to be transited and based on the different criteria defined on the transit platforms :
- Logistics sites whose transit is imposed on a platform,
- Considering the possible product families for which transit have to be applied,
- Considering the quantity thresholds (weight and/or volume) for which transit have to be applied based on the following rules :
- The system (solver) accumulates the quantities (volumes and weights):
- By customer site (see quantity threshold management independent of product families)
- By type of activity: delivery and collection
- By considering only unassigned operations and not the operations on routes
- Not considering i.e. depot sites by cumulating quantities only per customer site and independently of deposit sites
- By not considering the time period i.e. by cumulating the quantities on the calculation horizon
- The system (solver) accumulates the quantities (volumes and weights):
- ...
- The system apply applies transit for corresponding operations and update updates some attributes of the operations of the sites for which a transit must be applied:
- Customer site of the operation,
- Original customer site,
- Dates of delivery at the earliest / latest on the customer site of operations
- ...
...
- At the end of the global calculation, when an operation to be transported against the volumes could not be turned on by the computer, in this case, keep the transit applied and load the user to arbitrate then manually if he wants to apply the transit or not.
- If the initial operation is not assigne assigned on a route, the initial operation is not transited and the final operation is not created
...
The option "Show all transit platforms" allow to display all platform defined in the system.
Some informations information on routes, sequences, and operations grids are available about transit :
- Routes: Indicator to precise if the route has been transited or not (i.e. at least one operation has been transited)
- Sequences: Indicator to precise if the sequence has been transited or not (i.e. at least one operation has been transited)
- Operations :
- Indicator to precise if the operation has been transited or not
- Origin client site: client site origin to deliver before having applied the transit
- Initial operation: ID of the initial operation (in case of creation of the final operation, links between operations transited).
- Final operation: ID of the final operation (in case of creation of the final operation, links between operations transited).
