Hello,

We would like to know how the insertCost is calculated.

The insertion will always generate more kilometer and time which will also generate a cost.
But how is this cost (insertCost) calculated ? Are the kilometer and time the only parameters which can impact the insertCost ?
Can we get a detailed explanation please ?

thanks in advance,
Best regards
Clément

Hello Clement,

look at the attached screenshot.It is based on 10 exsting input tours.

: By inserting the new order at this position in this tour we have to drive 3 km more than before.
Based on the cost properties of a vehicle 3km means 3km * ([cost/km])

: Here are the cost properties of the vehicle

: So each line in this grid represents a potential vehicle accepting the insertion, specifying the insertion position, the additional distance and period and the costs.

Does this answer your question?

Best regards
Bernd

PS: the first proposal is based on creating a new tour.
