TM from Soup to Nuts - Part 4 - Transportation Planning in the Cockpit

#TM #Transportation_Management #S4HANA

Part 4 of our TM - Soup to Nuts series.
In this episode, we cover the planning of freight units in the transportation planning cockpit. We cover the methods available to plan, offer tips on managing the cockpit (data selection and layout), and also highlight the role of the integration to HANA Spatial Services for distance and duration determination.

Please note that all the planning capabilities offered are there only to support you - you as the "human" are responsible for making sure that the freight orders saved are coherent and intentional.

All statements made and opinions expressed are my own, and do not reflect those of my employer.
