• Key Concepts: 
  A compartment profile is a feature of the Vehicle Scheduling component of SAP's Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module. It is used to define the capacity of a vehicle in terms of the number and size of compartments it has. This information is then used to determine the most efficient way to load and transport goods. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To create a compartment profile, you must first define the number and size of compartments in the vehicle. This can be done in the Vehicle Scheduling component of APO. Once this is done, you can assign the profile to a specific vehicle or group of vehicles. This will allow you to optimize the loading and transportation of goods based on the capacity of each vehicle. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a compartment profile, it is important to ensure that the number and size of compartments accurately reflect the capacity of the vehicle. This will ensure that goods are loaded and transported in an efficient manner.
