SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) helps companies better manage global trade operations, ensure ongoing trade compliance, and optimize the cross-border supply chain.
Fashion articles involve global trade operation. Fashion articles manufactured in a particular country may be sold in various other countries and geographical location. To ensure such fashion articles comply with trade and goods movement agreements between countries, the fashion articles are expected to have product numbers in complaint format. Once the product numbers are generated, you can use the pricing data maintained in SAP Fashion Management in the SAP GTS system.
To create reference product numbers and save them to the fashion database, on the SAP Easy Access Retailing (transaction W10M) menu , choose
. Alternatively, you use the transaction FSH_PROD to create reference product numbers and save them to the fashion database.Note
For articles that are not segmentation relevant, the product number is same as the article number.
For articles that are segmentation relevant, the product number is a combination of the article number and segmentation data.
Use transaction /SAPSLL/MATMAS_DIRR3 to generate product numbers in the SAP GTS system. This also transfers the master data, such as weights and volumes, unit of measure, and product description maintained in SAP Fashion Management to the SAP GTS system.
Use transaction /SAPSLL/PRCMAT_DIRR3 to transfer pricing data from the SAP Fashion Management system to the SAP GTS system.
Note
You can attach the tariff codes in the SAP GTS system after step 2 or step 3 and carry out GTS-relevant activities.
