Your challenge
Managing your courier, express, and parcel (CEP) services is becoming increasingly burdensome: rising parcel volumes, a growing number of carriers, and the pressure to shorten delivery times while simultaneously keeping costs under control. These processes are often hampered by manual data entry into external CEP systems, cumbersome label printing, and a lack of real-time shipment tracking information.
You know the consequences all too well: High process costs and error rates due to duplicate data entry. Delays at the packing station and in the shipping department. A frustrated customer service team unable to efficiently answer shipment inquiries. Adding new carriers becomes a complex IT project that severely limits your competitive agility.
Our solution: The 24-LOG CEP integration – automated and deeply integrated into SAP®.
As your partner for SAP® logistics processes, we turbocharge your CEP (courier, express, and parcel) operations. We implement a streamlined and powerful integration solution that automates all your shipping processes directly within your familiar SAP® environment (SAP® LE-TRA or the modern SAP® Transportation Management – TM).
Our solution is not an isolated system that creates another data silo. It's a seamless add-on, based on proven technologies and deep process understanding, designed to transform your shipping department into a true efficiency engine.

Your advantages at a glance:
1. Maximum process efficiency & significant cost reduction:
Automatic CEP label printing: Generate ready-to-ship, carrier-compliant labels (including dangerous goods labels and customs documents) with one click directly from your SAP® document (e.g., delivery or freight order).
No manual data entry: Address data, weights, and packaging information are automatically and accurately transferred from SAP® to the CEP service provider. This eliminates typos, reduces personnel costs, and drastically speeds up the entire packaging and shipping process.
Efficient multi-carrier approach: Connect all common national and international CEP (courier, express, and parcel) service providers and freight forwarders via a single interface. Switching or adding a new service provider is possible without complex IT projects and with minimal effort.
2. Seamless track & trace for you and your customers:
Integrated shipment tracking: Track the status of all your shipments in real time directly in SAP. Your sales and customer service teams can answer customer inquiries immediately without switching systems.
Proactive status updates: Set up automated notifications for your customers and inform them transparently about the current delivery status of their order – this significantly increases customer satisfaction.
3. Seamless SAP® integration & future-proofing:
One system, one truth: The entire process from order entry to delivery confirmation is mapped in your SAP® system. Freight costs can be automatically checked and posted, increasing transparency in your controlling.
Compatibility with LE-TRA & TM: Our integration solutions are fully compatible with SAP® LE-TRA and the modern SAP® Transportation Management (TM) in S/4HANA. Your investment is therefore secure in the long term and ready for future logistics innovations.
Deep process integration: Our solution integrates perfectly into your existing processes in sales (SD), materials management (MM) and finance (FI/CO), creating a seamless, digital flow of information.
For whom is this solution ideal?
24-LOG CEP integration is the strategic decision for all manufacturing companies and trading companies that:
They must handle a high or growing volume of parcels efficiently and without errors.
want to digitize and automate their manual shipping processes .
They have several CEP service providers in use and want to increase their flexibility.
Want to offer your customers an excellent delivery service with proactive tracking.
are about to migrate to SAP S/4HANA and want to make their logistics processes future-proof.
What does the 24-LOG CEP connection do?
It connects all your CEP (courier, express, and parcel) service providers directly to SAP®. From the shipping order and automatic label printing to shipment tracking, the entire process runs in one system – without switching between individual carrier portals.
Are shipping labels and documents generated automatically?
Yes. During the shipping process, the appropriate carrier labels and shipping documents are automatically generated and printed in the correct format. This reduces manual entry and avoids errors in address and shipment data.
Which CEP service providers can be connected?
The connection is independent of the service provider. Common carriers such as DHL, UPS, DPD, GLS or FedEx can be integrated, as well as other regional or international services – depending on your requirements.
How is the solution integrated into SAP®?
The CEP (courier, express, and parcel) integration is implemented as an add-on directly into your existing SAP® landscape (e.g., LE-TRA/TM). A separate system is not required, and your familiar shipping processes remain unchanged – they are simply automated and enhanced with carrier communication.
How does shipment tracking work?
The carrier's tracking information is automatically transferred back to SAP® and displayed on the respective document. This allows your employees to see the current shipment status directly in the system, without having to check external portals.
What happens if a carrier changes its interface or adds a new service?
New carriers can be added and existing connections adapted without restructuring the shipping process. This ensures your shipping remains stable and future-proof, even with changing service providers or interface changes.
