• Key Concepts: 
  Triangular operation is a feature of the LO-AGR-LOC-BR Brazil Localization component of SAP. It allows for the transfer of goods between two different countries, with the third country acting as a transit point. This process is used to reduce costs and simplify the logistics of international trade. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use triangular operation, the user must first set up a transit warehouse in the third country. This warehouse will be used to store goods while they are in transit. The user must then configure the system to recognize the transit warehouse as a valid location for goods transfer. Once this is done, goods can be transferred from one country to another via the transit warehouse. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using triangular operation, it is important to ensure that all necessary taxes and duties are paid in each country involved in the transaction. Additionally, it is important to keep track of all goods that are being transferred, as well as any changes in their status during transit. 
  
  Related Information: 
  Triangular operation is similar to consignment stock, which is another feature of SAP's LO-AGR-LOC-BR Brazil Localization component. Consignment stock allows for goods to be stored at a third-party location and then transferred to customers when needed.
