Your customer sends a delivery request. So far, so normal. But the goods are not supposed to be delivered to you; instead, they are to be shipped directly from the supplier to the end customer. SAP is familiar with this concept. It’s even included in the SAP standard.
What SAP doesn't know is that this order comes via a delivery schedule rather than a line order. And just like that, the familiar cycle begins: manual rework, workarounds, Excel spreadsheets, and phone calls.
In this webinar on September 15, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. Let’s take a look at three supply concepts that have long been standard in the automotive supply industry: drop shipping, the EDL process, and VMI. We’ll show where SAP reaches its limits and how these gaps can be closed with the right add-ons. Concrete, practical, with live demos.
