Business Context and Use
After carrying out transportation planning for delivery-based transportation requirements (DTRs), a shipper sends the resulting freight documents to a logistics execution system for further processing, for example, for invoicing or output management.
The Request Transportation Order Execution outbound operation sends a freight document to a logistics execution system and requests the execution of the freight document. To execute the freight document, the logistics execution system can create a shipment, for example.

Relevant dates (for example, pick-up and delivery dates)
Means of transport
IDs of the business documents related to the freight document, for example, the IDs of the deliveries based on which a delivery-based transportation requirement was created
Packaging information for vehicle resources or containers at the highest level of the item hierarchy (or for both of these)

Notes on SAP Implementation
Integration
You can use this operation to send freight document data from SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) to SAP ERP. The operation is triggered when you select the action 
Follow Up 
Create/Update ERP Shipment 
in
a freight order or freight booking. The SHPMNT05 IDoc in SAP ERP creates a shipment based on the freight document.
If the freight document data includes packaging information, SAP ERP creates handling units based on this information, using container as the packaging material. Note that you must send packaging information to SAP ERP if you want to send the shipments from SAP ERP to the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) application to carry out warehouse planning and execution.
Configuration
You have defined that freight documents are to be sent to SAP ERP by setting the required value in the Shipment Creation Relevance field in Customizing for the freight document type. This setting also defines whether packaging information is sent to SAP ERP. For more information, see the field help for the Shipment Creation Relevance field.
In addition, the following requirements have been met:
The freight document is derived from a delivery-based transportation requirement.
The freight document is in process and does not have one of the following statuses:
Blocked for execution
Blocked for planning
Marked for deletion
For information about the required settings, see Shipment Integration Based on Freight Orders or Shipment Integration Based on Freight Bookings.
For information about the required message control settings for outbound communication, see the documentation of the Transportation Order Execution Out outbound interface.
