Imports with SAP
We offer a lean solution to companies that use SAP: the dbh Import plug-in. This is a software extension that can be easily integrated into your SAP system. It is the appropriate solution for mapping import methods. Optionally, you can also integrate an interface for classifying your goods.
SAP and Advantage Customs
If the import plug-in is integrated into your SAP system environment, you can map all processes from inbound delivery to posting and release in SAP. The Import Plug-In for SAP uses the functions of the dbh customs solution Advantage Customs. This software is certified for communication with the German customs system ATLAS. In addition, all of Europe’s common customs systems are connected to the system (e-dec, e-zoll and Sagitta).
