SAP S/4HANA SDM - Built for bulk & liquid logistics
Overview · What SDM does

Where material movements meet financial reality

Order & demand

Everything from first customer contact to a confirmed, automatically created order — telesales and CRM-light tools, collective ordering for heating oil, and consumption-based forecasting that resupplies customers before they ask.

  • Delivery order management
  • Telesales, CRM light & order creation
  • Collective order (heating oil)
  • Automatic demand determination

Plan & dispatch

Where SDM earns its reputation. The dispatching engine combines open orders with available vehicles and drivers at maximum efficiency on a live roadmap, then closes each trip automatically — loss allocation, left-on-board and freight cost, no manual rekeying.

  • Load & delivery (trip) dispatching
  • Fleet & driver management
  • Trip reconciliation

Automate & integrate

The processes that run in the background so people don’t have to. Load and delivery results are processed automatically against best-practice rules, orchestration drives a full order-to-cash flow across corporate boundaries, and partner-system integration keeps every connected system in sync.

  • Automated processing (load & delivery results)
  • Process orchestration / pre-processing
  • Partner system integration & data exchange
  • Enhanced stock reporting
