Preference LTSD Management SAP S/4HANA training
Training for inbound and outbound long-term supplier declarations used as preference evidence in SAP GTS.
Process overview ?? business context
LTSD processing manages evidence from suppliers and declarations to customers. It connects supplier-product relationships, request proposals, received declarations, validity, release and downstream preference determination.
Learners can request, enter, validate, release and monitor LTSD evidence and explain how invalid or missing declarations affect preferential eligibility.

Step-by-step walkthrough
Build request worklist
Use supplier-product relationships and business documents to identify missing declarations.
????? ???: Do not request declarations for irrelevant or obsolete products.
Maintain received evidence
Enter product, supplier, agreement, validity and statement details.
????? ???: Validity dates drive downstream eligibility.
Release only checked declarations
Use release workflow once evidence is reviewed.
????? ???: Unreleased declarations should not support preference claims.
Monitor gaps
Track missing, expired and invalid declarations.
????? ???: Preference status can change when evidence expires.
Common errors ?? troubleshooting
Product not covered by LTSD
??????? ????: Declaration does not include the product or agreement.
Fix path: Correct declaration scope or request new evidence.
Declaration expired
??????? ????: Validity period no longer covers the transaction date.
Fix path: Request updated LTSD and rerun determination.
Outbound proposal missing
??????? ????: Business document or customer-product relationship is not proposal-relevant.
Fix path: Check proposal selection and partner/product master data.
ECC ?? S/4HANA differences
In S/4HANA landscapes, feeder data and document proposals are easier to integrate, but the same audit discipline around evidence validity and release remains essential.
