Send ASN from SAP - WSW solution also for SAP TM users

Anyone who has been sending ASN messages from their SAP system for a long time usually uses mappings that correctly transfer the data from an SAP IDoc called SHPMNT05 to the EDI system. When switching to SAP TM, however, the user faces a problem: instead of IDocs, Transportation Management sends XML messages. So that you can continue to use your mappings, we have developed a solution that can convert your XML messages into IDoc format.

Suppliers use the Advanced Shipping Notice to inform their customers about upcoming shipments. This also works in principle with the ERP systems from SAP (ECC and S/4HANA). However, you will already encounter the first problems in the standard system: the outgoing IDoc messages often lack the necessary data, especially if you have to meet specific customer requirements. And then the IDoc messages still have to be transferred to an EDI system and correctly converted into the customer formats with the corresponding mappings. There are suitable solutions for both, including in the WSW Software portfolio, with which you can enrich and correctly map ASN messages.

A special case arises for users who work with SAP Transportation Management (TM): Here you are also confronted with a new data format, namely XML, which replaces the usual IDoc messages. 

Special path for existing mappings:
Conversion of XML messages

Anyone who has been working with IDoc messages and the corresponding mappings for years faces a challenge when introducing SAP TM: new mappings have to be set up or licensed for each customer specification, as the old mappings are only made for IDocs and are now unusable. Especially if you supply a large number of customers with individual specifications, you have to reckon with a major investment for completely new mappings.

WSW Software offers a simpler and, above all, more cost-effective alternative for this case: with the help of our solution, IDoc messages can be converted into XML format. This means that you can continue to use all existing mappings and do not have to start from scratch. Instead of making large investments, you can continue to carry out your delivery processes smoothly with a single and comparatively small solution.

Data enrichment and mappings independent of the SAP system

Our solutions also support those who are new to SAP TM with ASN messages or mappings: For newly set up systems, we recommend tailor-made mappings for XML messages. Regardless of your system landscape, we have the right EDI solution for you: as experts in EDI communication, we offer individual customizations as well as complete solutions for processes in OEM supply, with which you can quickly and easily create transparency and automation - under SAP ECC, S/4HANA or TM.
