Purchasing and Materials Management with SAP MM

Purchasing is a crucial component of the SAP Materials Management (MM) Module, which automates and integrates tasks associated with materials management processes. This module encompasses a wide range of activities including Procurement Process, Inventory Management, Valuation of Material & Account Determination, Material Requirement Planning, goods receiving, Invoice, and final payment to vendors using the invoice verification feature.

The MM Module is built on two pivotal master data categories: Material and Vendor. It also operates at various organizational levels, such as Client, Company Code, Plant, Storage Location, and Purchase Organization. Divided into five major components — Materials Management, Plant Maintenance, Quality Management, Production Planning and Control, and Project Management — this module includes subcomponents that cater to specific functions.

Furthermore, the module encompasses Inventory and Warehouse Management to oversee stock until usage necessitates replenishment. Electronic Kanban/Just-in-Time delivery is also supported.

Throughout the program, participants will delve into customizing settings for purchasing, inventory management, physical inventory, account determination, and organizational levels. Additionally, they will learn the creation of material reservations manually and gain insights into planning and executing a physical inventory.
