SAP MM (MATERIAL MANAGEMENT)

SAP MM (Material Management) is a central component of the SAP ERP system that focuses on managing and optimising a company's materials management. It covers all essential functions associated with the procurement and warehouse process and plays a crucial role in ensuring an efficient flow of materials and optimised warehouse management.

WHY SAP MM

Cost reduction

SAP MM enables companies to efficiently manage and optimise their materials management.

It offers comprehensive functions for procurement, inventory management, goods receipt and invoice verification and is closely integrated with other business processes. As a result, SAP MM makes a significant contribution to increasing efficiency, reducing costs and ensuring quality in materials management.

FUNCTIONS OF SAP MM

Efficient material flow

SAP MM plays a decisive role in ensuring an efficient material flow and optimised warehouse management.

When to
switch to SAP MM?

SAP MM (Material Management) is particularly useful for companies that require precise and efficient management of their materials management. Here are some specific scenarios in which the use of SAP MM is particularly beneficial:

Complex procurement processes

Companies with extensive and multi-layered procurement processes benefit considerably from SAP MM. If different materials have to be procured from numerous suppliers, SAP MM helps to optimise and automate the entire procurement process, from ordering to invoice verification.

High stock levels and many storage locations

Companies that need to manage large quantities of material at different locations can achieve improved inventory and warehouse management with SAP MM. The module enables real-time monitoring of stock levels and helps to minimise storage costs by optimising stock quantities.high stock levels and many storage locations

Avoidance of material bottlenecks and excess stock

SAP MM is ideal for companies that need to plan and control their material requirements precisely in order to avoid production downtime or unnecessary storage costs. Efficient requirements planning enables material bottlenecks to be recognised in good time and excess stock to be avoided.

Quality assurance for incoming goods

When the quality of procured materials is critical, SAP MM provides valuable support through its incoming goods inspection and quality control functions. It ensures that only materials that meet quality standards enter production, minimising errors and rework.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES

How is SAP MM implemented?

Greenfield approach:

Here, a new system is built from the ground up. This offers the opportunity to redesign and optimise business processes from scratch.

Brownfield approach:

A system conversion in which the existing SAP system is migrated to SAP MM. 

Hybrid approach:

A combination of greenfield and brownfield, in which certain processes or modules are newly implemented and others are migrated.
