SAP Announces Updates to Logistics Business Network

September 30, 2020
SupplyChainBrain

SAP announced a new release of SAP Logistics Business Network, with new capabilities to increase logistics network visibility, collaboration and reach. SAP Logistics Business Network is a cloud-based network platform designed to connect SAP customers’ back-end systems to their freight collaboration, tracking, order fulfillment and material traceability networks.

“As further proof of SAP’s commitment to the SAP Business Network strategy announced at SAPPHIRE NOW, we continue to add new capabilities to SAP Logistics Business Network and to advance our partner strategy,” said Paige Cox, senior vice president and head of SAP Business Network. “The open APIs and expanded partnerships are proof points of our strategy to create a true network of networks.”

The release includes

  • Sales order fulfillment tracking based on the global track-and-trace capability in SAP Logistics Business Network, which connects to milestone and live tracking services across transportation modes for global coverage
  • Enhanced freight collaboration capabilities, including multimodal freight order tracking that extends visibility across road and ocean events
  • Standard APIs to connect partners and networks, enabling new road and ocean partner collaborations

Licensed members of SAP Logistics Business Network can now access actual shipment location, status changes and estimated time of arrival during transportation by road and ocean carriers. The new connectivity to ocean carriers and ports, as well as satellite systems, allows visibility across all global ocean freight.
