Freight cost calculation in SAP

Freight cost calculation in SAP with M.ShippingRates

Reduce logistics costs with process transparency

Clarity before shipping

Whether for parcel services, freight forwarders, or international air and sea freight: anyone who hires a transport service provider wants to know the costs in advance. In practice, however, there is often a lack of fast and reliable options for determining prices using a system—especially in complex scenarios involving multiple service providers and changing relationships.
