PP-Master Data
The material master contains information on the
materials that a company constructs, procures,
manufactures, stores, and sells.
The information is stored in a database that is a central
source of data on materials.
The material master record integrates data from different
areas of a company.

Bill of Material
A bill of material (BOM) is a complete, formally structuredlist of the components that make up a product orassembly.
The list contains a description and object number for each
component, together with the quantity and unit ofmeasure.
BOM items indicate individual parts and assemblies, whichare identified by their material numbers.
Bills of material can exist at the plant and/or client level.The header and components all contain validity dates thatcan be affected using Engineering Change Management.

Work Centers A work center is a location that defines when and where
production resources are required according to orderrequirements.
Work centers can be defined as individual or multiple
machines, people, tools, and so on. Example
Work Center Category Example
-Individual work center Automatic lathe 17- Work center group Lathe shop
- Production line Line 9
- Individual person John Doe
- Group Group 12
Work centers are used in routings (routings, standard
networks, inspection plans, maintenance task lists, and
rough-cut planning profiles) and in orders.

Task Lists and Routings
A routing defines operations and the sequence in whichthey are carried out.
Routing can include the following:
- The standard values (times) for activities such as setup
and processing.
- Work centers where the operations are performed
- The material components assigned to the operations
- Any production resources / tools necessary to perform
the operation
- Inspection characteristics for operations where
inspections are carried out
- Instructions of what to do at each operation

SOP
Sales & Operations Planning (SOP) is a flexible forecastingand planning tool with which sales, production, and othersupply chain targets can be set on the basis of historical,existing, and estimated future data.
Rough-cut planning can also be carried out to determinethe amounts of the capacities and other resources requiredto meet these targets.
Use SOP to streamline and consolidate your companyssales and production operations.
SOP is particularly suitable for long- and medium-termplanning.

The S&OP process is typically made up of a minimum of
three steps:
1. Sales Plan 2. Production Plan
3. Rough Cut Capacity Planning

The sales plan is typically generated using historical
consumption (sales) data then applied to a statistical
model in order to generate a forecast..
The process it self is rough in nature due to the fact thedemand is typically created at aggregate levels than
what is typically executed. This means that the sales
plan may be created at the regional, division, or product
group level. In addition it is often developed in weekly ormonthly buckets of time, compared to the operations
team that will plan at material and daily level.

Production Planning
Production planning is used for planning production,
external procurement or stock transfer on the basis of
existing requirements in the plant (depending on the
procurement type).
The requirements are fulfilled by the creation of
planned orders (for planning in-house production) and
purchase requisitions or scheduling agreement schedule
lines (for planning external procurement).
