Create Locations - Details

• 
  Key Concepts: 
  Create Locations is a feature in SAP Transportation Management (TM) that allows users to create and manage locations for their transportation network. Locations can be used to define the origin and destination of shipments, as well as the points in between. Locations can also be used to define the routes that shipments will take, and to assign costs to those routes.
  
  How to use it: 
  To create a location in SAP TM, users must first define the location type. This can be done by selecting from a list of predefined types, or by creating a custom type. Once the type is selected, users must enter the address information for the location, including street address, city, state/province, and country. Finally, users must assign a cost to the location. This cost will be used when calculating shipping costs for shipments that use this location.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating locations in SAP TM, it is important to ensure that all of the address information is accurate and up-to-date. This will help ensure that shipments are routed correctly and that shipping costs are calculated accurately. Additionally, it is important to assign accurate costs to each location so that shipping costs are accurately calculated.
