Subcontracting in S/4HANA

The key to effective handling of external assignments

Are you looking for a way to effectively process external work within your SAP system?
Do you lack transparency and plannability in your subcontracting process?
Do you have complex subcontracting of production steps to external suppliers and need to map these in SAP?

If a company lacks the technological competence or specialization to manufacture a product, it is necessary to have the machining or processing performed externally by a subcontractor. Unplannable capacity bottlenecks in production make it necessary to outsource certain processing steps. The lack of know-how about the complex functions in S/4HANA, as well as the master data required for this and dependencies of the adjacent modules in relation to the subcontracting process make implementation difficult. The order and inventory monitoring increases with the number of external processing by a subcontractor as well as the components to be provided per subcontractor part. Without intelligent inventory management in the system, a company quickly loses track of all subcontractor inventories.

Benefits

By using the subcontracting process in SAP, a company benefits from end-to-end visibility of the business partner relationship between the company and its suppliers. By maintaining the necessary master data, it is possible to automate the ordering process. The entire flow of documents and goods can be tracked throughout the entire process chain. 

  • Overview and transparency of the inventory situation at the subcontractor's premises
  • Order monitoring
  • Unambiguity between finished part and component provided thanks to a bill of materials
  • One goods receipt posting for finished part and component to be provided
  • By using MRP areas, requirements for material provided to vendor are displayed separately and not mixed with plant requirements
