Key Steps in Production Execution: Discrete Production Is An Industry Where Produce Materials Change

SAP Production Planning (PP) module handles planning processes like capacity and material planning, production order execution, bills of material, and goods movement. It keeps master data for bills of materials, work centers, and routings in a separate component. SAP PP submodules vary by industry type, such as discrete production, repetitive production, or other production industries. Discrete production involves changing materials for each lot while repetitive production uses consistent materials over long periods. Key steps in production execution include converting planned orders to production orders, issuing and confirming production orders, issuing goods, and receiving finished goods.

SAP Production Planning is one of the key modules in ERP and deals

with planning processes, such as capacity planning, material planning,


execution of production order, bill of material and goods movement.
SAP PP module handles the master data required for Bill of Materials
(BOMs) activity, work center and routing, and keeps it in a separate
component.

SAP PP submodules vary as per industry type like discrete production,


repetitive production, or production industries.

Discrete production is an industry where produce materials change


with each lot and costs are calculated as per orders and lots.

In repetitive production, the product is not changed for a long period


of time. Production takes place in total quantity and not in the form of
individual lots.

For most of the industry types, above-mentioned planning and


execution submodules are commonly used. Before the production
execution, many steps are performed as a part of the planning process
−

• Material Requirement Planning (MRP) run (More details later in this


tutorial).

• Bill of material and routing master data is entered in a planned order


automatically with MRP run.

• Planning quantities are maintained in the system.

Key Steps in Production Execution


Following are the key steps in executing a production order. It starts
with a planned order and ends with goods receipt against a Production
order.

Convert Planned Order to Production Order


The first step is to convert a planned order to production order. When
you create a production order, type is defined in SAP PP system.

Issue the Production Order


To start the production process, it is necessary to issue production
order. Till a production order is released, execution of the production
process cannot start.

Issue Goods for Production Order


To execute the production order, goods need to be issued. Once goods
are issued, the document number can be updated in the system.

Production Order Confirmation


All the sub processes are executed in accordance with the required
operations to confirm the production as per the production order.

Good Receipts w.r.t Production Order


Once the execution of production order is complete, goods produced
w.r.t production order are received and placed in the storage area.
