• Key Concepts: 
  Full truckload (FTL) is a type of transportation service in which a single truck is used to transport goods from one location to another. It is typically used for large shipments that require a full truckload of goods to be delivered in one go. FTL is often used for long-distance shipments, as it is more cost-effective than other transportation services.
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP, FTL can be used to manage the transportation of goods from one location to another. This includes tracking the shipment, managing the delivery, and ensuring that the goods are delivered on time and in good condition. Additionally, FTL can be used to optimize the cost of transportation by selecting the most cost-effective route and carrier.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using FTL in SAP, it is important to ensure that the shipment is properly tracked and monitored. This includes tracking the progress of the shipment, monitoring the delivery status, and ensuring that all necessary documents are in order. Additionally, it is important to select a reliable carrier that can provide timely and efficient service.
  
  Related Information: 
  FTL is often used in conjunction with other transportation services such as less-than-truckload (LTL) and intermodal shipping. Additionally, FTL can be combined with other SAP modules such as Warehouse Management (WM) and Manufacturing Execution (MES) to optimize the transportation process.
