MRP

ERPtips Material Requirements Planning class dives into all components of MRP including a process overview, calculating requirements, and integration with other SAP modules. We will perform a deep dive into the master data that supports the MRP processes. Once we understand the building blocks of MRP, we will turn our focus to Demand Management planning strategies and demand consumption. As we progress, we will discuss how to evaluate the results of the planning run and how to turn those results into procurement. In our final unit, we will tackle MRP reporting.

Just like the ERPtips Journal, our training covers the entire SAP product line, from core SAP modules like Financials, Logistics, and HR/HCM, to NetWeaver-based components, to SAP's Business Suite applications, including CRM, SCM, and SRM. We train SAP implementation team members and super-users on any issues covered in the standard SAP course catalog, and we go beyond that to offer cutting edge configuration and reporting techniques that can fill the gap in your SAP know-how.

We help SAP clients and consultants solve business and technical problems with our library of undocumented features, timesaving solutions, and best practices. Request a free sample issue of ERPtips here.

Testimonials

"The ERPtips instructor geared this class to the students and their companies' Basis environments. We covered important topics that are hard to find practical information on, like kernel upgrades and hotpacks. I was later able to apply this knowledge to my company's own SAP system.

To get exposure to all the key material in this course, I might have had to take about three courses from SAP itself. The instructor went the extra mile to make sure that everyone's questions were answered."

Pete Peters, IT Manager, Prym Consumer USA
