Using an ongoing example throughout the book, you'll learn how to create delivery and shipment documents, control picking, and transfer packing data, as well as how you can control shipments and how to post the goods issue. You'll also learn about interfaces to other areas, such as dangerous goods management, plus availability checks and much more.
