[tanandadarling]

The eleventh step in the Waste Management E2E Process for All Countries Blog Series – South African Example is to create a waste transportation document for our South Africa example with all the information setup to this point. 

This step uses a culmination of all the previous steps to create the transportation document that is utilized to transport the generated waste in a legally compliant way to the final disposal facility. To review the previous steps in this series, see Waste Management | SAP Blogs. 

With this document you can monitor the transported waste and ensure it is disposed of correctly according to your country/region.

Creating a transportation document is done in the My Waste Transportation Documents app. In the app itself, there is a guided tour called Creating Waste Transportation Documents which leads you through the process of creating a new transportation document.
