To make the source and destination information of the transport orders usable for Transport Management , the properties of the information can be created in a file with JSON format, maintained and then uploaded under Source/destination mapping. The incoming transport orders with additional source and destination information from the third party are displayed under Material flow > Transport orders.

Overview: Source/target mapping
The current data of the properties that can be transferred to Transport Management for transport orders from third-party systems is displayed under Material flow data > Source/destination mapping.
