  Key Concepts: 
  Full load cross-docking is a process in SAP's Warehouse Management (LE-WM) component that allows for the efficient transfer of goods from one location to another. It involves the consolidation of goods from multiple sources into a single shipment, which is then sent to its destination. This process helps to reduce costs and improve efficiency by eliminating the need for multiple shipments and reducing the amount of time spent on loading and unloading.
  
  How to use it: 
  Full load cross-docking can be used in SAP's Warehouse Management (LE-WM) component by setting up a cross-docking rule. This rule defines the source and destination locations, as well as the criteria for selecting goods for consolidation. Once the rule is set up, goods can be selected for consolidation and sent to their destination in a single shipment.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a full load cross-docking rule, it is important to consider the size and weight of the goods being consolidated. This will help ensure that the shipment is not too large or too heavy for the destination location. Additionally, it is important to consider any special requirements that may be necessary for the shipment, such as temperature control or hazardous materials handling.
