TM

​

SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) supports you in all activities connected with the physical transportation of goods from one location to another. You can use SAP TM to perform the following activities, for example:

• Create transportation requests for your ordering parties

• Plan the transportation

• Subcontract and tender the transportation services

• Calculate the transportation charges for both the ordering party and the supplier side

You can use SAP TM to create and monitor an efficient transportation plan that fulfills the relevant constraints (for example, service level, costs, and resource availability). You can determine options to save costs and to optimize the use of available resources. You can react to transportation events and find solutions to possible deviations from the original transportation plan.
