Hello All,

Could you please help me to understand a difference between Customs Declaration and Transit procedure?

What is the business process for Transit procedure in terms of Import & Export?

What is the SAP process steps in Transit procedure such as for Customs declaration,

* Sales order --> Delivery --> Pro-forma Invoice --> Customs Declaration

What is the configuration change than Customs Declaration?

Thanks & Regards

Hi Rahul,

Transit (in the EU) is all about moving goods that are under Customs control (that's to say, goods on which duty or refunds are liable).  You can read about it on the EU web-site:

What is customs transit? - European commission

In the GTS system, Transit is transacted at the Delivery level (inbound and outbound), whereas Customs Declarations are normally created from Goods Receipts (inbound) and Billing Documents (outbound).  You can read about it on the SAP web-site:

SAP Global Trade Services - SAP Library

Hope that helps to answer your question.

Regards,

Dave
