SAP PP Portal @ eIT.in - SAP PP Directory, Jobs, Books, Training

 

SAP R/3 has a highly integrated Production Planning System. The PP module is divided into two Sub-modules, 'PP-PI' and 'Production General'. PP-PI sub-module is designed for process industries like Oil and Gas.

 

The Production Planning module of SAP takes care of Master data needed like Bill Of Materials, Routings and Work Centers and stores it in one separate component.

 

Various stages of the planning system can be planned by using components like

 

Sales and Operation Planning

 

Long Term Planning

 

Demand Management

 

Materials Requirement Planning

 

SAP has distinguished various styles of production like Kanban, Repetitive Manufacturing and Production Order processing. It can take care of various planning strategies like 'Make-to-stock', 'make-to-order', 'planning without final assembly' etc.

 

SAP R/3 PP module can also plan Capacity. The capacity Planning sub-module takes into account various capacities like pooled capacity etc.

 

Production Orders reporting has flexibility of confirming orders with or without backflush. The material can be staged to production site from the Warehouse after releasing the order. Costing can be triggered automatically by integrating the module with the Cost Accounting Module.

 

Integration with other modules like Material management, Financial Accounting, Cost Accounting, Human Resources & Development, Sales and Distribution etc adds on to reliability of the production planning system in SAP R/3. The system is a real time system. The changes in demand (cancelled or added sales order etc) and supply (high/low rejection, early/late supply from supplier, breakdown of facilities etc) are reflected in real time and the production controller can react fast to these changes.

 

The SAP PP Portal at eIT.in provides comprehensive web resources for many aspects of SAP PP. The aim is to be a gathering spot of web resources for SAP PP that will benefit a wide range of professionals – companies implementing SAP PP, individuals & professionals involved in SAP PP implementation / use, students seeking information on SAP PP as a career choice, recruiters looking for SAP professionals and consultants and experts seeking more info on the latest in SAP PP.

 

We hope this portal is of use to you. We will be glad to your feedback about this portal, as well as any suggestions you might have. Please send your comments to [narsi]@[esource].[in] (remove the [] to get the email address!)

 

Happy browsing!
