This section provides an overview of how to configure and manage the Serialized Logistics application. The Serialized Logistics application supports companies in carrying out transfer, verification, and other logistics-related activities in their warehouses and reporting these activities to the market (when applicable).


The workflows below illustrate typical use cases for the user. The description is not exhaustive and is not meant to be exhaustive. The goal is to help the users to get an idea of how to use the application for certain activities.


IMPORTANT:

  • In the below use cases, we assume that you have already activated the Serialized Logistics application in Movilitas.Cloud. For certain cases, the Reports & Analysis application also needs to be activated in Movilitas.Cloud. This is a one-time activity when you start your journey with Movilitas.Cloud. For more information, see Enabling Applications for a Tenant.
  • For users that have the “User” role, the administrators of the tenant can configure access to the Serialized Logistics application but this is optional. In this way, the administrators can customize the available functions for each user that have the “User” role. For more information, see Roles and Access to the Serialized Logistics Application.

Sending a Shipping Event from SAP ATTP to a Partner Client in Movilitas.Cloud (UAE)


In this use case, the manufacturer (supplier) invites the wholesaler (client) to establish a partnership with each other in Movilitas.Cloud. The wholesaler (client) is in the UAE.


If the wholesaler does not have a tenant in Movilitas.Cloud, the wholesaler registers one and then accepts the partner request.


Regarding the payment model, the wholesaler can become a full-paying customer in Movilitas.Cloud or can be in "Partner" mode meaning that the tenant that sent the invitation pays the invoices (the manufacturer).


The manufacturer ships items to the wholesaler. The manufacturer sends a commissioning request from SAP ATTP to Movilitas.Cloud. The commissioning request is an EPCIS file that meets the requirements from Tatmeen. Tatmeen is the regulatory system in the UAE. Movilitas.Cloud processes the shipping event and creates the items in the database.


The manufacturer and the wholesaler are integrated within Movilitas.Cloud with their customized views and functions. The partnership enables the manufacturer and the wholesaler to exchange data in an efficient, controlled, and secure manner:

  • In the manufacturer (supplier) view, Movilitas.Cloud creates an outbound external transfer in the Serialized Logistics application.
  • In the wholesaler (client) view, Movilitas.Cloud logs the receipt in the Serialized Logistics application on the supplier's Uploads tab.
