Key Concepts: Checkout is a process in SAP Transportation Management (TM) that allows users to create and manage outbound deliveries. It is used to plan, execute, and monitor the delivery of goods from the warehouse to the customer. The checkout process includes creating a delivery document, assigning a carrier, and scheduling the delivery. How to use it: To use checkout in SAP TM, users must first create a delivery document. This document contains information about the goods being shipped, such as the quantity, weight, and dimensions. Once the document is created, users can assign a carrier to transport the goods. Finally, users can schedule the delivery by setting a date and time for pickup and delivery. Tips & Tricks: When creating a delivery document in SAP TM, it is important to include all relevant information about the goods being shipped. This will ensure that the carrier has all of the necessary information to complete the delivery successfully. Additionally, it is important to double-check all of the information before assigning a carrier and scheduling the delivery. Related Information: SAP TM also includes other processes related to checkout, such as returns management and payment processing. Additionally, SAP TM integrates with other SAP modules such as Materials Management (MM) and Sales & Distribution (SD). This allows users to easily manage their supply chain from end-to-end within one system.
