SAP Transportation Management

SAP TM 6.0 is designed to drive, manage and operate transportation across multiple enterprises, companies and warehouse management systems, including end-to-end process steps that are executed by retailers, manufacturers, and logistics service providers. It optimizes the utilization of existing resources, identifies the cost and time saving opportunities, determines the most efficient transportation plan for any given scenario and has the ability to modify the initial planning based on the real world interaction and events.

SAP TM 6.0's development is based on the enterprise service object architecture (SOA), which allows users to easily connect and interact with other SAP solutions, such as SAP global trade services (GTS), SAP environmental health and safety (EH&S), Strategic freight procurement and analytics. The system also incorporates standard message based on electronic data interchange (EDI) communications based on international standards.
