• Key Concepts: 
  A loading group is a feature in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD) that allows you to group together multiple delivery documents into one shipment. This helps to reduce the number of shipments that need to be created and tracked, making it easier to manage the delivery process. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a loading group, you first need to create a loading group in the system. This can be done by going to the “Create Loading Group” transaction in the SD module. Once the loading group is created, you can assign delivery documents to it. You can then create a shipment for the loading group, which will include all of the delivery documents that have been assigned to it. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a loading group, make sure to give it a descriptive name so that it is easy to identify later on. Additionally, you should always check that all of the delivery documents have been assigned correctly before creating the shipment.
