SAP PP
One of the most important components of SAP’s ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) package, SAP PP (Production Planning) aids businesses in organizing and managing their production processes. Below is a detailed description of all of its parts and features.
Master Information:
A material master holds data about every material that a business purchases, manufactures, stores, and sells.
A product’s bill of materials (BOM) is an organized inventory of all the parts, subassemblies, and raw materials that go into making it.
Work Center: A designated area within a factory where tasks are completed.
Routing: Specifies the steps that the manufacturing process must take and the order in which they should be completed.
One high-level planning tool that aids in balancing supply and demand is sales and operations planning, or SOP.
Demand management plans requirements and forecasts to make sure there is enough inventory to meet demand without going overboard.
Material Requirements Planning (MRP): Determines the components and materials required for a product’s production.
