The document provides an overview of inventory management and procurement processes in SAP. It discusses key concepts like materials master data, purchasing master data, procurement documents, goods movements, physical inventory, and special stock types. Organizational structures and different valuation methods are also summarized.
This document outlines different types of plant to plant transfer orders including transfers without and with stock transport orders, with and without billing, and different document, delivery, billing, and pricing types as well as how stock is handled and costs are determined for each order type. It provides information on internal order processes for moving materials between plants.
The document discusses availability check configuration in SAP. Key points:
- Availability check verifies stock availability when creating sales orders.
- It can be configured using availability check groups, checking rules, and scope of check parameters.
- Configuration includes options like considering safety stock, stock in transit, blocked stock, and open purchase orders and sales requirements.
- Backorder processing allows assigning quantities from cancelled low priority orders to new high priority orders if stock is unavailable. It requires individual requirements to be set for the material.
This document provides an overview of the key transactions and processes used in process manufacturing in SAP. It describes the master data needed such as materials, resources, recipes, quality inspection characteristics, and quality plans. It then outlines the basic production cycle including creating a process order, goods issue, confirmation, goods receipt, quality approval, and stock release. Key transactions referenced include COR1, MIGO, CORK, QA32, and more. The production cycle explained focuses on production and quality management for a process manufacturing company.
This document provides instructions for configuring stock transport orders in SAP, which allow for the physical transfer of goods between two plants or company codes. It outlines the key configuration steps, which include defining a stock transport order document type, assigning shipping data and checking rules to plants, and associating delivery types and one-step procedures with document types and plant combinations. The configurations allow goods to be transferred between plants within a company code or across company codes with delivery and optional billing.
Shelf Life Planning in S/4 HANA Classic MRPVijay Pisipaty
It is typical for Pharmaceutical Companies to Batch Manage and Shelf Life manage their materials and products.
During Material Requirements Planning or Master Production Scheduling (both Standard and Long-Term Planning), the SAP S/4 HANA version (and all previous versions too) of ERP Application, does not discount the net available batch quantities that are expiring out into the future (and instead considers them as available depending on the Inventory Stock categories configured for the Checking Rule for MRP/MPS). This is a HUGE gap.
There now exists a "Creative" solution (without any source code modification) with the following features to overcome the subject gap in S.4 HANA Classic MRP/MPS:
The system dynamically takes into consideration the Expiration Date (or any Batch Date that you desire as key date) of balance quantity of batches in Inventory after consumption/netting off.
The system calculates the quantity of a batch that will expire on the expiration date, or that will need to be discounted based on Key date of batch (e.g. Use By/Last Ship Date).
The system reduces the 'Net Available Material Inventory' per requirement date, by the net quantity of the batch that whose expiration/key date is less than the requirement date of the requirement.
Batch Numbers of the expiring/discounted batches and their respective quantities discounted will be visible in the MRP List and Stock Requirements List.
An ability is provided whereby the entire functionality can be turned ON/OFF per "Plant-Material Type-Division" combination.

The document discusses various SAP MM business scenarios including procure to pay cycle, vendor consignment, pipeline procurement, subcontracting, and stock transport order. It provides details on the key transactions and accounting entries for each scenario. The procure to pay cycle involves purchase requisition, request for quotation, purchase order processing, goods receipt, and invoice receipt. Vendor consignment uses purchase order, goods movement, and material document. Pipeline procurement uses goods issue and material document. Subcontracting requires BOM, purchase requisition, purchase order, and goods movement. Stock transport order can be intra-company or inter-company.
The document discusses SAP materials, specifically standard materials and NLAG (non-stock) materials. It defines NLAG materials as consumable materials that are procured directly for use rather than inventory management. The document provides examples of NLAG materials and explains that while inventory management is not possible for NLAG materials, the system still allows storing purchase information to create purchase documents for frequently needed consumables. Screenshots show the different material creation and procurement processes in SAP for standard versus NLAG materials.
This document provides a list and descriptions of standard SAP SD reports that can be accessed using transaction codes SAP1 and SARP. It explains that the report tree under SARP allows users to navigate to different report categories like sales. Specific reports are listed on pages 3-4 with transaction codes to retrieve blocked deliveries, orders, contracts, scheduling agreements, billing documents, pricing reports, and more. Users can select parameters in report requests to filter the results.
1. The document discusses various sales order and distribution related concepts in SAP SD including drop shipments, sales areas, picking locations, customization vs configuration, shipping points, smart forms, sales document structure, plant determination, billing without delivery, sales deals, pricing date, account groups, item categories, project IMG, extending materials and customers to other sales areas, multiple deliveries, EDI usage, copy controls, schedule line categories, blocking sales documents, reconciliation vs normal accounts, access sequences, types of free goods, the 16 steps in a pricing procedure, differences between plants and storage locations, the sales order cycle, and the relationship between sales organizations and company codes.
2. It also provides explanations for concepts
This document discusses the ASAP methodology for SAP implementations and provides details on key phases of the implementation process including scoping, as-is, to-be, business blueprint, realization, integration testing, and go-live preparation. It also defines baseline configuration and final configuration phases. Additionally, it provides guidance on creating end user manuals and documents the steps involved in understanding a client's existing "as-is" business processes during an SAP implementation.
The document discusses pricing concepts in SAP such as condition tables, condition types, access sequences, condition records, and pricing procedures. It provides definitions of these key terms and describes how to set them up in transactions like creating a condition table, defining condition types, and maintaining pricing procedures. Steps are outlined to go through the document and SAP documentation to understand these pricing concepts.
The document describes the process for transferring stock internally between plants within the same organization but different company codes. Key steps include a stock transfer requisition created by MRP or a buyer, converting this into a purchase order, picking and shipping material from the supplying plant, receiving at the receiving plant, and billing between the plants. The process requires SAP ERP, and roles such as purchaser, warehouse clerk, and billing administrator are involved.
