Overview of mySAP Business Suite
Figure 1: mySAP Business Suite
The mySAP Business suite is a complete package of solutions and services, which enables customers, partners, and employees to work together successfully.
The mySAP Business suite unites broad business- and industry-specific experiences within a platform of e-business solutions, services, and technologies. The suite is based on open, flexible architecture that enables cross-enterprise collaboration and supports databases, applications, operating systems, and hardware of major suppliers.
The mySAP Business suite offers cross-industry and industry-specific solutions. For example, cross-industry solutions include:
• mySAP Supply Chain Management (SCM)
• mySAP Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)
• Each solution has different key functional areas. For example, key functional areas in mySAP SCM are:
– SCM Planning – SCM Manufacturing
SCM340 Lesson: Overview of Production Planning for Process Industries
Each solution has key functional areas. For example, the following are the key functional areas in mySAP SCM:
• SAP R/3 Enterprise
• SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer (APO)
• SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW)
Integration of R/3 Production Planning and APO Production Planning
A plug-in enables interfaces for the integration of SAP R/3 Enterprise with SAP BW or SAP APO. The interface between SAP R/3 Enterprise and SAP APO is called APO Core Interface (CIF).
Figure 2: SC Planning: Overview
Planning includes tasks that are performed using various components in SAP R/3 Enterprise or SAP APO. You can use both systems for planning. The systems are integrated through the CIF interface.
Demand planning uses past sales quantities to calculate the future demand program, for example, to determine planned independent requirements.
Flexible planning using SAP R/3 enterprise, standard SOP using SAP R/3, or Demand Planning using APO-DP can be used to achieve this.

Supply Network Planning, APO, enables for cross-plant planning of all procurement operations.
Sales orders are usually entered in the SAP R/3 Enterprise. The Available to Promise (ATP) check of a sales order can take place globally in APO.
Material requirements planning can be executed in both systems. In SAP R/3 Enterprise, capacity requirements planning is executed separately. Quantities and capacities are planned simultaneously in APO Production and Detailed scheduling (PP/DS).
Figure 3: Integration Between Manufacturing and Planning
Production control represents the central part of a complex process chain ranging from planned independent requirements or customer requirements through goods receipt of finished products.
SCM340 Lesson: Overview of Production Planning for Process Industries
Demonstration: SOP and Demand Management
Purpose
The purpose of this demo is to review production planning. Review the types of demand and the primary planning strategies, i.e. MTS and MTO. Point out when disaggregrating that if you deselect the invisible transfer indicator then you need to save for each material in the product group, otherwise you will not get a forecast for that material.

Defining Process Order
• A Process Order:
– Describes the request for production to manufacture a material at a specific date in a specific quantity in one production run.
– Defines which resources or means of production are used and which ingredients are required to manufacture the material.
– The main control instrument in production and is used to describe, update, and monitor all production-relevant planned and actual data.
– Usually based on a master recipe.

Figure 4: Process Order (II)
A process order describes which material is to be produced, its quantities and dates, the means of production and production methods, and the production costs and cost objects to which costs should be assigned. This information is specified in the planned data and updated in the form of actual production data.
SCM340 Lesson: Overview of Production Planning for Process Industries
Integrating Process Order Components
Figure 5: Cross-Application Process Flow
Process order management represents a central part of a complex process chain ranging from an independent requirement, planned or customer requirement, through to goods receipt of finished products.
Process order management controls the in-house production process of products, and if required, together with process management.
Process order execution is, for example, integrated with the functions of capacity requirements planning, costing, and inventory management. It also has connections or interfaces to Process Control Systems (PCS), R/3 Quality Management, and external Laboratory Information Systems (LIMS).

Figure 6: Master Data for Process Orders
Master data typically remains unchanged for long periods of time in the SAP System. It contains information that is often used in the same manner for similar objects and business processes.
The material master record is the central master record in logistics. In general, SAP defines a material as a substance or commodity that is bought or sold on a commercial basis or is used, consumed, or created in production.
A batch is a unique subset of a material. The batches of one material are managed separately in stock. With regard to the production process, a batch is a quantity of a material produced during a given production run. This quantity represents a unit with unique specifications.
The master data for resources describes the means of production in the production process.
A production version determines the alternative Bill Of Material (BOM) is used in combination with a master recipe for process order manufacturing.
The master data of master recipes describes the manufacture of one or more materials in a production run without relating to a particular order.
SCM340 Lesson: Overview of Production Planning for Process Industries
Material BOMs describe the structure of products produced in a company.
They are usually created and maintained from the master recipe, integrated maintenance.
Figure 7: Material and Batch
In the SAP System, batch master records always depend on their
corresponding material master records. Batches are created for a material.
In general, the data of a material master record is valid for all the batches assigned to it. In contrast, a batch master record contains data that uniquely identifies a batch and characterizes it as a non-reproducible unit.
Characteristic batch specifications are assigned using characteristics from the classification system in the material master and are inherited by the corresponding batch master records.
If a material should be produced and managed in batches, the Batch
Management Requirement indicator should be set in the material master record.
A batch master record is usually created by the system in the background for specific business transactions such as goods receipts. Users can also create batch master records directly in master data maintenance.

Figure 8: Batch Management in Supply Chain Management
Batch management is used in all areas of logistics. A batch can be traced across the whole supply chain, from the receipt of raw materials to processing in production and creation of the final product, through to sales and delivery to the customer.
A batch master record can be used to assign a batch to a material at various places along the supply chain. For example, if the partial quantity of a material produced in batches leaves a production process or process order with specifications, it is posted to stock with a batch number and can be uniquely identified.
If a batch with specifications is required in the supply chain, the batch determination function can be used to find suitable batches in stock. In production, batch determination is, for example, used in process orders to find and withdraw suitable material components for the product to be produced.
Demonstration: MRP & Process Order Creation
