Routing and Load Building for SAP ORTEC 5 Transparency in route planning ORTEC Cross-Docking for SAP ERP The SAP standard distribution transportation process means loading materials at a plant or warehouse, and then delivering them to the customers’ location. In some cases, order size structure and distribution network means it may be more cost efficient to ship goods via a third location, known as cross-docking. Goods from one plant are delivered to the crossdocking location in one tour (shuttle), and are regrouped with goods from other plants into multiple new tours from the cross-docking location to the customer locations (distribution). ORTEC for SAP supports a 2-stage transportation planning process for outbound distribution processes, with an optional module ORTEC Cross-Docking for SAP ERP. 6 ORTEC Routing and Load Building for SAP Our software solutions SAP Integrated ORTEC for SAP ERP Certified add-on to logistics optimization in SAP ERP with integrated carton, pallet and Management in SAP ERP for picking load space optimization, plus route planning and control, planning and optimization. including paperless picking.
