MRP Live
Efficient materials planning for the future
Unlock the full potential of SAP S/4HANA
Material requirements planning has changed fundamentally with the introduction of SAP S/4HANA and MRP Live. What used to be a lengthy process is now more efficient and flexible than ever before thanks to state-of-the-art technologies. Find out how MRP Live can optimise your planning processes and give your company a real competitive advantage.
Planning process with MRP Live
During an MRP run, the system plans the materials in the sequence defined by the MRP levels of the BOM. First, the system determines which materials can be considered in MRP Live on HANA and plans them. In the next step, materials with the same MRP level that could not be planned in MRP Live on HANA are planned using classic MRP. In addition, the system also takes into account materials for which errors occurred in MRP Live.
The planning process in MRP Live on HANA must be completed for each MRP level before the system moves on to the next level.
Material requirements planning in transition: MRP Live in SAP S/4HANA
Material requirements planning, also known as MRP, is a key function in every production company. It ensures that all required materials are available in the right quantity and at the right time. SAP S/4HANA has replaced the classic MRP process with MRP Live, a version that offers significant performance improvements. This improvement is achieved by processing large amounts of data directly on the database, which increases the speed and efficiency of the entire process.
With MRP Live, companies can carry out their planning runs more frequently, resulting in a more up-to-date database. This enables a more precise matching of supply and demand and helps to reduce the risk of supply bottlenecks.
In addition, SAP S/4HANA offers new Fiori apps that compensate for the elimination of traditional MRP lists. These apps provide detailed insights into ongoing planning runs and help to identify and rectify master data errors at an early stage. The user-friendly interface of the Fiori apps makes it easier to analyze and respond to material problems, which ensures the stability of the material supply and increases the efficiency of the entire production chain.
