SAP PP/DS – Advanced planning functionality based on an industry standard E2E case study

This video tutorial provides an introduction to master data and the basic functionality of Embedded Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (ePP/DS). It shows how material masters, BOMs, routings and resources support production planning and scheduling. An end-to-end case study explains the key features of ePP/DS, including heuristics, sequence planning and bottleneck management.

Special emphasis is placed on Supply-Based Confirmation (SBC), which enables early and realistic order confirmations. The tutorial illustrates how SBC takes into account material availability and capacity to ensure reliable delivery dates. By seamlessly integrating with aATP processes, SBC helps to optimise the entire supply chain. This demonstration provides a practical insight into how companies can improve their planning efficiency and visibility with ePP/DS.
