General Scenario: Business Scenario

 GOIL purchases products from vendors and

delivers products to customers.
 The company processes purchases and
deliveries itself.
 You commission external service agents to
ship the materials, but you are responsible
for organization and execution.
 So the materials can be shipped as efficiently
as possible, you combine purchases, deliveries,
and transfers for which the points of departure,
in-transit locations and destinations match.
 GOIL calculates and settles shipment costs
with the various service agents after the bulk
shipment has been fully processed.
