• Key Concepts: 
  A Bill of Distribution (BoD) is a document used in SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) Master Data (MD) to define the distribution of materials from one location to another. It is used to define the quantity of materials that are to be shipped from one location to another, as well as the route and mode of transport. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to create a BoD, you must first define the source and destination locations, as well as the quantity of materials to be shipped. You can then specify the route and mode of transport for the shipment. Once all of this information has been entered, you can save the BoD and it will be available for use in other SCM-APO-MD processes. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a BoD, it is important to ensure that all of the information is accurate and up-to-date. This will help ensure that the shipment is delivered on time and without any issues.
