From MRP run to transportation-optimized shipments

Thanks to its composable and easily adaptable architecture, 4flow TORO can be seamlessly integrated into existing ERP systems such as SAP.

4flow TORO considers parameters like transportation rates, capacity restrictions, route information and material master data to optimize shipments based on scheduling agreements.

The results from the standard MRP runs are transferred to 4flow TORO and immediately optimized based on transportation-relevant factors. After optional verification, the optimized schedule lines are transferred back to the ERP system.
