  Key Concepts: 
  Shipper's Load and Count (SL&C) is a term used in SAP Transportation Management (TM). It is a process that allows shippers to consolidate multiple orders into one shipment. This helps to reduce costs and improve efficiency. The SL&C process involves the shipper counting the number of items in each order and then loading them onto a single truck or container. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In SAP TM, the SL&C process is managed through the Shipper's Load and Count (SL&C) application. This application allows shippers to enter the number of items in each order, as well as the total weight and volume of the shipment. The SL&C application also allows shippers to track the progress of their shipments and view any discrepancies between the actual number of items shipped and the number of items ordered. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the SL&C application, it is important to ensure that all orders are accurately counted and loaded onto the truck or container. This will help to ensure that all orders are delivered on time and without any discrepancies. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any discrepancies between the actual number of items shipped and the number of items ordered, as this can help to identify any potential issues with the shipment.
