• Key Concepts: 
  Vehicle-resource combination is a feature of SAP's Vehicle Scheduling component of the Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO) module. It allows users to assign resources, such as vehicles, to specific tasks or orders. This helps to ensure that the right resources are available for each task and that they are used in the most efficient way possible. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use vehicle-resource combination, users must first define the resources they want to assign. This can be done by creating a resource pool in the APO system. Once the resources have been defined, they can be assigned to tasks or orders. The system will then automatically calculate the most efficient way to use the resources, taking into account factors such as distance, time, and cost. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning resources, it is important to consider how they will be used. For example, if a task requires a vehicle to travel a long distance, it may be more efficient to assign a larger vehicle with more capacity. Additionally, it is important to consider how much time each task will take and how much it will cost.
