• Key Concepts: 
  A load chart is a graphical representation of the capacity of a transportation network. It is used in SAP Transportation Management (TM) to visualize the capacity of a transportation network and to plan and optimize the use of resources. The load chart can be used to identify bottlenecks in the network, as well as to plan and optimize the use of resources.
  
  How to Use it: 
  The load chart can be accessed in SAP TM by navigating to the “Load Chart” tab in the “Transportation Network” view. The load chart displays the capacity of each node in the network, as well as the total capacity of the network. The user can then use this information to identify bottlenecks in the network and plan and optimize resource utilization.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the load chart, it is important to remember that it only displays the capacity of each node in the network, not the actual utilization. Therefore, it is important to also consider other factors such as traffic patterns and customer demand when planning and optimizing resource utilization.
