S/4 HANA PPDS

“ S/4 HANA manufacturing for planning and scheduling ” the best solution for short-term planning

  • “ SAP S/4 HANA manufacturing for planning and scheduling ”, is the new name of S/4 HANA PPDS. This is the new alternative compared to APO PPDS. It helps companies to determine what, when and where to make or buy, considering equipment and production facilities.

    S/4 HANA PPDS aims to maximize production efficiency, in regards to lowest possible costs. It creates procurement and production propositions so as to cover product requirements, whereas optimizing your plan. S/4HANA  PPDS provide a finite capacity planning helping :

    • Reduce customer cycle time for ATO and MTO
    • Simplify planning cycle with an automatic single pass planning
    • Minimize shortages
    • Optimize capacity requirements by reducing setup time

 S/4 HANA PPDS versus SAP PP (Production Planning)

  • Constrained and Unconstrained production planning example

    In SAP Basic PP (Production Planning) the MRP (Materials Resources Planning) and CRP (capacity requirement planning) are running separately. With “SAP S/4 HANA manufacturing for planning and scheduling” the MRP and CRP are executable simultaneously, using your own capacity leveling rules. S/4 HANA PPDS provides flexibility and a better accuracy of the production planning results.
