This course focuses on material requirements planning (MRP), inventory management and invoice verification and how this intrinsically important area of business administration is implemented within the framework of the world leading standard software in the area of Enterprise Resource Planning SAP S/4HANA. The SAP S/4HANA application used for this purpose is called SAP MM (Materials Management).
Based on an integrated business scenario which you will accomplish directly in the SAP S/4HANA system, the central topics of Material Requirements Planning (MRP), Inventory Management as well as Invoice Processing are systematically presented. While working on the system, you gradually get acquainted with all levels of the SAP S/4HANA system. This includes the customizing of your own organizational model, creation of your own master data records, and the customizing and implementation of your own integrated business processes in the afore mentioned areas. The practical case studies cover the following areas in particular:
- Organizational model in SAP S/4HANA with special focus on SAP MM
- Master data in SAP S/4HANA with special focus on SAP MM
- Business processes with a focus on Material Requirements Planning
- Business processes with a focus on Inventory Management and Goods Movements
- Business processes with a focus on Invoice Verification
In addition to the detailed description of the SAP MM application, its main components and its business background, important integration points to other SAP S/4HANA applications are presented, too, in particular for financial accounting as well as controlling.
The course is rounded off by background information on project management as part of the introduction of standard software, the organizational units and structures, and the process components of the SAP system for mapping companies and business processes that is integrated in the case studies.
