# Transferring Shipments to SAP

## Pass booked shipments to your SAP system as purchase orders.

### Prerequisite: store SAP numbers

For the mapping to work, every carrier needs their SAP business partner number:

1. Click your company name in the top right and select **Contacts**.
2. Click the **pencil icon** on the partner.
3. Enter the number in **SAP business partner number** and save.

### Creating a purchase order

1. Award the order as usual via **Place order**.
2. The **Create purchase order** window opens. Enter: 
     - **Organisational unit** — for example Cologne plant, freight purchasing
     - **Material group**
     - **Account assignment category** — for example sales document or cost centre
     - **Reference numbers** — depending on the assignment category
3. Click **Create purchase order**.

The data goes to SAP, then you send the booking email as usual.

### If the transfer fails

Without the SAP business partner number on the carrier, the order cannot be mapped. Add it in your contacts.

### Setting it up

The interface is set up together with your IT. → Contacting support
