| Values calculated |
| MLp,s | If the product p can be delivered by means of transport s, then MLp,s=1 otherwise MLp,s=0 |
| MCp,c | If the product p can be operated by distribution center c, then MCp,c=1 otherwise MCp,c=0 |
| ST | The large fixed value, for example, the total number of ordered products |
| Decision variables |
| Xk,p,c,o,s | The size of product p delivery from the manufacturer (factory) k to the distribution center c using means of transport s due to the customer order o |
| Yk,c,s | If the delivery is carried out from manufacturer (factory) k to the distribution center c using means of transport s, then Yk,c,s=1 otherwise Yk,c,s=0 |
| Constraints |
| The volume of supply to distribution centers from producers resulting from customer orders |
| (C1) |
| The manufacturer can not dispatch more products than its production capacity |
| (C2) |
| If the delivery is carried out from the factory to the distribution center, there must be a course specific means of transport (link decision variables Xk,p,c,o,s and Yk,c,s) |
| (C3) |
| At most one course in a given period for a given means of transport |
| (C4) |
| The volume (tonnage) loaded on the means of transport can not be greater than its capacity (tonnage) – note that this version of the model assumes only one gauge if it were to be considered that more similar equations arise only with other factors |
| (C5) |
| Binarity and integrity |
| (C6) |
