Introduction of logistics

Logistics is the process of planning , implementing and controlling the

efficient effective flow and storage of goods and related information from
point of origin to point of consumption for the purpose of meeting
customer requirements.

Previous Methods

Previously, Sales order was created.

Incase of DHL, as soon as the
package arrives at destination
Delivery order was created.

While creating Delivery order, We put

a time & date on Point of delivery.

Those date and time was the only

way that can be used to ensure
whether the package has been
delivered successfully.

Case Study DHL Last Mile

Delivery

With the final part of the delivery journey (the so-called last mile) being highly
dependent on Vehicles and Drivers, and as consumer demands become more
sophisticated and delivery points continue to multiply, logistics providers face new
challenges.
Lets consider Furtwangen as an example. There would be 10 Vehicles for example
with 10 different drivers. One fine morning, one of the driver is sick, and one vehicle
has some mechanical problem.
Data about these two situations should be instantly available to central office so that
they can assure timely arrival of couriers to respective customers by re-routing
working vehicles and drivers.
This topic will further be presented during our project and you will see real time
update of such data to SAP Dashboards based on SAP Lumira.

Dimensions

For our analysis , the following dimension are used:

TIME

DRIVER

VEHICLE

ROUTE

The measures were:

The vehicle status

The drivers health status

Route Distance in Km.

Other Restricted columns were also used as Measures.

Tables and views were created using SAP Eclipse and analysis was done in SAP
Lumira

Star Schema - Prototype

Data Models SAP HANA

Driver Master data table with driver

ID as key figure.

Time Master data table, that was not

taken from time dimension. Because
Standard table had no data, and
there were lot more attributes, that
did not add value if corresponding
data was generated.

Data Models SAP HANA

Vehicle Master data that has
Vehicle_id as the primary key.

Region Master data with region_id as

the primary key.

Transaction data for DHL Real time

Analytics with primary-foreign key
relationship and three measures
namely;
1. Vehicle Status having values
between 0 and 5. Range between 3
5 is considered as safe status. And
range between 0-3 is unsafe.
2. Driver Health Status, 0 means sick,
and 1 means healthy.
3. Route distance mentioned in Km.

Restricted Columns as Measures.
There were three measures in
our fact table, but in order to
make our analysis more
detailed, we have added 6 more
restricted columns as measures.

Conclusion

Dashboards that have been presented, clearly shows several

measures in comparision to dimensions on different types of
graphs.

Those can be used, by control center operator to make sure that

efficiently functioning vehicles are driven on long routes, keeping
drivers health status in perspective.

These dashoboards need to be studied, together in order to come

to conculsion, because several measures against several
dimensions on the same chart is not possible.

We believe, that this data model can further be extended to

include all of Deutschland, and then geographic graphs can also
be utilized providing more insights to real time analysis.

Benefits of SAP HANA for logistic Conclusion

19

Provide timely delivery information to support moreintelligentdecisions around

scheduling and order fulfillment.
Use real-time information to make adjustments to modifydelivery options.
Simplify system administration and IT operations with tools that help you monitor
processes, ensure data and application security, and achieve continuous availability.
Since SAP S/4HANA uses a new data model, aggregates and indices are no longer
necessary, so significantly less memory space is required than with conventional
database management systems.
particularly advantageous SAP S/4HANA logistics process isparallel posting.
