	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>Freight Management is the package in SSA ERP that handles transportation requirements. Because <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/pur" role="module">Purchase Control</GUIRef> is sometimes responsible for the transportation of goods and must consequently collect goods from a supplier, you can generate a freight order from the purchase order. If the transportation of goods is not the supplier's, but the responsibility of <GUIRef href="/baanerp/td/pur" role="module">Purchase Control</GUIRef>, the supplier must know on what date the goods must be ready. As a result, you must consider the planned load date in the purchase order as the shipment date; when to pick up the goods from the supplier.</Paragraph>
