Hi Vinoth

For the transportation services you buy from the carriers you create buy shipment and for the services you provide to the customers you create sell shipment.

Dear Vinoth,

Consider yourselves as a LSP, where you get orders from your customers which in turn you execute from your service providers. So the buy side is nothing but the services you are buying from your service providers and adding your margin to sell it to your customers by creating a sell side.

basically the buy shipment is what you will pay the carriers, and the sell shipment is what you will get paid from the customers.
