Feinplanung

Detailed planning

If a company uses SAP, it is obvious that detailed planning should also be mapped with SAP. The possibilities have changed considerably over time.

Historically, the Enterprise Central Component (ECC) had a graphical planning board, which only provided a representation but no support for the actual planning - it was not possible to implement reliable production planning (PP) or plan shifts, for example.The effort of planning and scheduling therefor remained high and was entirely the responsibility of the respective planners.

SAP Manufacturing for Planning & Scheduling (MP&S)

To take this into account, SAP has brought detailed planning back into Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) (SAP S/4HANA) so that the new detailed planning tool MP&S (formerly Production Planning & Detailed Scheduling (PP&DS) or extended planning in S/4HANA) now has fully integrated access to all relevant data and information (without duplicate data storage).

  • MP&S is delivered with SAP S/4HANA and then only needs to be activated and set up or licensed, and at a significantly lower price than before.
  • MP&S supports the creation of production and sequence planning and can simulate it, it can work in a setup-optimized manner and all relevant information stored in SAP can be included.
