Dangerous Goods in the Value Chain (3G8)

Dangerous Goods in the Value Chain (3G8)

This scope item manages the dangerous goods check in sales and delivery documents. In addition, dangerous good descriptions are printed on the sales order confirmations, sales contracts and the delivery notes.

For each compliance-relevant product added to a sales order, a sales contract or sales quotation, you must verify if the product is classified as a dangerous good. If so, you check if the product can be transported.

If the product is not classified or if transport is not allowed, this check can result in a sales order block. The determination is based on the dangerous goods regulations that are applicable for the transport between departure and destination countries/regions.

If a dangerous goods assessment is not yet completed, a corresponding request to the product stewardship department or the dangerous goods specialists is created.
