Objective and Scope

In the plant it is useful to speed the registration of the operations, to check and the printing of the transport document that follows the materials with complete bound and unbound data based on SAP master data and helps to control data continuously and in real time using customizing and own database linked to standard modules MM / PM / FI / CO.  It was  also adopted to simplify accounting operations.

“ZITA” is organized based on the type of Operation, the main motive for the issue of the “DDT”, the Transport Document that is a document required by Italian law on the transport of goods, which in various cases has replaced a previous document called the "delivery note.

Every month there are documents issued for the sale of various materials (crushed stone, iron and steel scrap, grain, etc.) with specific conditions (transport, payment, price and expected quantity) and they are recorded under the heading "Sales Documents" .
Each document is assigned an annual progressive numbering.
