• Key Concepts: 
  IATA airport codes are three-letter codes used to identify airports around the world. They are assigned by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and are used by airlines, airports, and other organizations in the aviation industry. The IATA airport code for a particular airport is typically used to identify it in flight schedules, reservations, and baggage handling systems. In SAP Global Trade Services (GTS), IATA airport codes are used to identify the origin and destination of goods being shipped internationally. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP GTS, IATA airport codes are used to identify the origin and destination of goods being shipped internationally. When creating a shipment document, users must enter the IATA airport code for both the origin and destination airports. This information is then used to calculate taxes, duties, and other fees associated with the shipment. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When entering an IATA airport code into SAP GTS, it is important to double-check that the code is correct. Incorrect codes can lead to incorrect calculations of taxes, duties, and other fees associated with the shipment.
