The task of dealing with the complexity of configurable products in supply chain planning, imposes challenges for even the most agile operations.
In industries such as automotive, construction equipment and machinery, where configure-to-order is the norm, the dynamic nature of bills of materials (BoMs) and production routings can significantly complicate planning efforts.
The secret to the success of SAP S/4HANA PP/DS in configurable product planning lies in its robust use of standard SAP master data.
SAP’s advanced planning tool, S/4 Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS), is designed to handle these complexities efficiently. It uses variant configuration models to ensure that each customized order is accurately planned, leveraging specific BoMs and routing details pulled directly from sales orders.
