  • Key Concepts: 
    Transport Zones are a feature of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) Master Data module. They are used to define the scope of transport requests and to control the transport of master data between different systems. A transport zone is a logical grouping of systems that share the same master data. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To create a transport zone, you must first define the systems that will be included in the zone. This can be done in the SCM Master Data module by selecting the relevant systems from a list. Once the systems have been selected, you can then assign them to a transport zone. This will allow you to control which master data is transported between the systems in the zone. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a transport zone, it is important to consider which systems need to be included in order to ensure that all relevant master data is transported. It is also important to consider which systems should not be included in order to avoid unnecessary data transfers.
