PP Outline

ERPtips Production Planning class covers the key sub-modules with the Production Planning Module. Due to the complexity of the Production Planning Module, this course balances business process transactions and configuration to provide a comprehensive overview of the Production Planning Module. The course starts with the business processes of; Sales & Operations Planning, Demand Management, Long-term Planning, Material Requirement Planning, Capacity Planning, Discrete Manufacturing and Repetitive Manufacturing. After reviewing the transactional processes, we review and perform exercises on the key transactions and configuration elements in these sub-modules. By the end of the class, you will understand all the sub-modules and will be able to configure and explain the key configuration elements within the Production Planning Module.

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
