Master the Challenges of Transport Logistics 4.0
Modern times require modern solutions. This also applies to transport logistics and the software used for it. Especially when it comes to planning and managing transport flows across national borders, companies face many challenges. How can they set up transport plans to be as efficient, sustainable, and cost-saving as possible?
With SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM), digitized and automated processes can be established, giving you a competitive edge. It is not only about withstanding price pressures from inflation and consumer expectations but also meeting sustainability and environmental goals. This is true even when external requirements and influences change. With SAP TM, you introduce a solution that can be easily integrated with your other SAP applications. This allows you to monitor and control the flow of your goods from raw material to finished end product in real-time.

LE-TRA Replacement
By the end of 2027, SAP has announced the discontinuation of the SAP LE-TRA (Logistics Execution and Transportation) module, and from January 2031, the usage rights will also expire. Therefore, a switch to the successor module SAP TM is unavoidable. Since this is an entirely new module, it must be treated like a greenfield project, including the migration of all relevant existing data.
The SWAN experts support you in the introduction of the SAP TM module for the basic and advanced variants.

Training
Users feel more confident in operating a new software solution and can use it more efficiently if they have been thoroughly trained on it. Therefore, we recommend offering training to your key users, users, and administrators on the optimal handling of the software already during project implementation. Thanks to our modular approach, we tailor our training offerings to your individual requirements. In addition, we actively support you in the transfer and development of knowledge so that you can evaluate and plan operational and strategic topics. We continuously expand our training program to always offer you best practice solutions for high project performance.
