Overview of SAP applications
Figure 2: SAP ERP Application Overview
As part of the long-term product strategy of SAP, you are offered an SAP Business Suite that comprises a number of applications.
The Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application is a comprehensive application that enables a company to efficiently plan, control and monitor complex delivery, procurement and production networks.
This application supports a synchronized and close interaction between all departments involved (and all people involved) within a logistics chain.
Customers, sales, production planning, manufacturing, warehouse management, purchasing, and vendors are all included in this complete solution.
The SAP ERP application includes a number of areas (see above).
You will find further information about the individual components of the SAP ERP application at
http://www.sap.com/solutions/businessmaps/solutionmaps/ and also here, under Cross-Industry Business Maps.
Figure 3: SAP SCM Application Overview
SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) is a comprehensive application that enables a company to efficiently plan, implement and monitor complex delivery, procurement and production relationships (supply chains). This application supports a synchronized and close interaction between all departments involved (and all people involved) in a logistics chain.
Customers, sales, production planning, manufacturing, warehouse management, purchasing, and vendors are all included in this complete solution.
In particular, the processing of cross-company processes and the collaborative planning and procurement processes, which also enable a connection to open market places, are a main feature of this application.
The SAP SCM application includes a number of areas (see above).
You will find further information about the individual components of the SAP SCM application at
http://www.sap.com/solutions/businessmaps/solutionmaps/ and also here, under Cross-Industry Business Maps.
Figure 4: SAP Components
In-house production is largely supported by the SAP component SAP ECC (formerly R/3).
SAP SCM provides considerably enhanced planning tools (Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), an enhanced inventory function (Supply Network Collaboration (SNC)) and Event Management (EM).
SAP BW (Business Information Warehouse) is used to separately store data for variable evaluations.
Interfaces for realizing the integration of ECC with SCM, BW or CRM are provided with an appropriate plug-in.
The interface between ECC and SCM (APO) is called a Core Interface (CIF). Sales orders can be managed using the component SAP CRM, but can be managed in SAP ECC also.
Production Types
Depending on the manufacturing process, product complexity, stability of production, and other criteria, a company has various requirements with regard to shop floor control.
For this reason, the SAP ERP and SAP SCM applications support a variety of production types.

Figure 7: Manufacturing: Production Types
Depending on the manufacturing process, production infrastructure, product complexity, stability of production, and further criteria, a manufacturing company has various requirements with regard to shop floor control.
Correspondingly, various production types are supported.
Production orders are used in a variety of industries and industrial sectors. Production orders can be used in a number of production types.
These production types are essentially dependent of the product stability, product complexity and the manufacturing processes used.
Figure 9: Definitions in the Production Order
Figure 11: Order-Related Production: Characteristics (2)
A number of functions are available for production orders, which allow for complex support of production (see the following graphics).
The SCM310 course covers all the basic functions and a selection of the most important enhanced functions in detail.
Figure 13: Order-Related Production: Characteristics (4)
Figure 14: Order-Related Production: Characteristics (5)
The PP-PDC (Plant Data Collection) interface is a widespread interface specially designed for production orders. Its content focuses on the data exchange between the SAP ECC system and standard plant data collection systems (PDC).
Execution Steps (XSteps) are used for the variable description of process instructions and messages in the production order. They are the basis on which data can be exchanged with the process control level (downloading control
instructions and uploading process messages) and interactive work instructions
generated for the machine operator.
SAP ODA (Online Data Access) supports the data exchange between SAP ECC and process control systems from different manufacturers in the area of industrial production and is based on the OPC standard - Open connectivity in
industrial automation:
• This is a manufacturer-independent standard interface for systems in the production area, which is used mainly in process automation.
• The task of an OPC server is to supply OPC clients (for example, the SAP ECC system) with data from a wide variety of systems installed at the process level. Typical examples include: PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), SCADA (Acronym for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), DCS (Distributed Control System), HMI (Human- Machine Interface)
• You can learn more about OPC under: http://www.opcfoundation.org/ SAP MII (Manufacturing Integration & Intelligence) is an independent SAP software component and enables real-time data integration in Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) by means of standardized, preconfigured connectors.
Figure 16: Cross-Application Process Flow
Production order management is a central part of a complex process chain starting with an independent requirement (planned or customer requirement) and ending with the goods receipt of a finished product.
Production order management controls the whole process of in-house production of products and is integrated in the functions of capacity requirements planning, costing and inventory management. Furthermore there are links or interfaces to quality management as well as external systems of process control.
Master Data for Production Orders
Figure 17: Master Data for Production Orders
The material to be produced must have the procurement type in-house production (X, E).
The material status must be released for production at cross-plant level (MARA) as well as at plant level (MARC).
At least one plant specific view (MRP and/or work scheduling) as well as financial accounting and costing views must be maintained for the material. The work scheduling view must be created (mandatory).
You prepare BOMs as single level BOMs. A special selection procedure chooses the valid BOM.
You maintain standard routings as routings. A special selection procedure chooses the valid routing.
Work centers are assigned to the operations in the routing.
Production resources/tools are assigned to the operations in the routing. Documents (managed in the document management system) can be linked with the production order and displayed there.

-Lesson Summary
You should now be able to:
Lesson: Order Structure
Lesson Overview
This lesson informs you about the data structure for a production order.
Lesson Objectives
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
• Describe the structure and elements of a production order.
• Navigate in the production order and explain the most important screens and their content.
Business Example
You analyze the data structure of a production order: • You will learn how to navigate in the order.
• You will get an overview of which information can be found on which screens.
Figure 21: Elements of a Production Order
A production order has the order structure mapped.
A standard sequence of operations may have other (parallel, alternative) operation sequences.
You can make a selection from several alternative sequences.
The standard sequence must have at least one operation. If necessary, the system creates the operation itself.
You can choose whether to assign material components, production resources/tools and trigger points to the operation.
Suboperations are permitted within an operation.
You can link documents in the DMS (drawings, text files, images,….) to the production order (as of release 4.6).
Execution steps are any process instructions (print, temperature, texts, …) that can be transferred to any destination (control instruction in SAP ECC, process control computer, CNC engine) in the form of a control instruction using the functions of process integration (as of release 6.0 EhP3).
Costs are determined at operation level, managed at order header level and a settlement rule is created for the orders for order-related COC only (optional as of release 4.5).
Figure 22: Production Order – Header
The segment of the order header describes the product that is to be
manufactured with the production order (finished product, assembly, individual part).
There are a number of single screens for the order header.
The header text of a production order can either be the short text of the material master or the header text of the routing that has been copied into the production order.
Figure 23: Production Order – Operation
This segment of the operation describes the individual work steps of the production order.
There are several single screens for an operation. These screens include other detail screens. For example, the component overview branches to screens for each material component.
You can add a hierarchy of sub-operations to an operation. This is used for detailed calculation and capacity planning. The operation control key of the suboperation plays an important role in this.
Scheduling always occurs at operation level.
The standard values of the suboperations can be cumulated on the corresponding operation when the dimension and units of measurement are the same.
It is not possible to assign material components or production resources / tools to sub-operations.
Figure 24: Production Order – Material Components
In a production order, you can assign any number of material components to an operation.
The segment for the material component describes the material required to carry out the individual operations.
Figure 25: Production Order – Production Resources/Tools
In a production order, you can assign any number of production resources/tools to an operation.
The segment for production resources/tools describes the required devices, tools, test equipment and so on required for executing an individual operation.
The production resources/tools category is essentially derived from the demands on a production resource/tool and its relationship to a certain object (material, equipment and so on).
Figure 26: Production Order – Documents
You can assign any number of documents, maintained in the document management system (DMS), to a production order. The documents are only linked to the production order but not saved with it. Links from documents to a production order can be created manually or automatically.
Documents can constitute illustrations, texts, videos and more besides. Application examples:
Product descriptions
Assembly instructions and drawings Inspection instructions and certificates Safety and health operating procedures Storage and shipping instructions Spare parts list
Figure 27: Production Order - Execution Steps
Execution steps (XSteps) are used for the variable description of process instructions and messages in the production order. They are the basis on which data can be exchanged with the process control level (downloading control instructions and uploading process messages) and interactive work instructions generated for the machine operator.
Execution steps allow any process instructions (maintained in the XStep repository, in the routing or in the production order) to be assigned to the production order.
Process instructions for work instructions can be outputs, inputs and control functions, such as function calls and process messages.
Application Examples:
Process instructions Molding pressure, pressing temperature, feed rate, …
Process message Creation date, actual time, actual material consumption, actual
processing quantity, processing status of operations, machine condition, …
As of Release 6.0 and Enhancement Pack 3 of the SAP ECC system, execution steps are available both in the routing and in the production order.
Figure 28: Production Order – Costs
If order-related cost object controlling is used, each individual production order has a cost object (CO object).
The costs incurred for an order can be calculated manually or automatically. You define this by setting up the order-type dependent parameters accordingly in Customizing.
The CO object allows you to display different lists of costs for a production order. From within an order, by choosing → GOTO → COSTS from the menu, you can find lists for the terms
Itemization (detailed overview of the individual costing items) Analysis (overview structured according to cost category)
Figure 29: Production Order – Settlement Rules
You control order settlement by way of settlement rules. The order can be settled proportionally to one or more receivers.
Settlement rules are created manually or automatically (during order creation). At the latest, they must be maintained before the goods receipts posting is performed for the material to be produced.
You define the settings for order settlement in Customizing.
If you use product-related cost object controlling, the settlement rules are contained in the product cost collector and not in the production order. You can find the settlement rules within the order by choosing
