OVERVIEW
Logistics providers and companies with large in-house logistics operations need to plan transport, run warehouses, bill customers accurately and know which services make money.
SAP S/4HANA includes embedded Transportation Management (TM) for planning and freight settlement and embedded Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) for warehouse operations. Both are integrated with sales, procurement and finance, so every movement, charge and cost is recorded once.
For larger operations, decentralised EWM and SAP's logistics business network extend the platform further.
Webtel delivers S/4HANA using SAP Activate, starting from SAP best practices and industry content. Fit-to-standard workshops show your teams how processes work in the standard system, so changes are limited to what genuinely sets your business apart. That keeps the core clean, makes upgrades easier and shortens the project.
