| Entity - Entity Relationships (tcemm2110m000) |  |
| Use this session to maintain entity - entity relationships for goods transfer. The relationships that you define between specific entities overrule the default relationships that you define between the enterprise units. You can define goods transfer relationships between warehouses of the same and of different logistic companies of a multicompany structure. You can only define goods transfer relationships between other types of entities if the entities belong to the same logistic company. To define the details of the goods transfer relationship, use the Goods Transfer (tcemm2150m000) session. You can select the set of goods transfer details that applies to the relationship in the Relationship Detail field. The relationship only applies between the effective date and the expiry date. Outside this period, ERP LN handles goods transfer between the entities in the standard way. Related topics Goods transfer relationships Entity-entity relationships
