SAP Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP) is a convenient solution for the creation of executable production plans

The Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (SAP PP/DS) component is a solution that allows creating and improving production plans (short-term, medium-term, and plans associated with the release of a final product). It also ensures effective preparation of draft purchase orders and detailed planning of resource workload.

The functionality of SAP PP/DS includes:

Various types of planning (interactive planning is aimed to quickly solve planning problems, while precise planning takes into account different planning conditions);
Using heuristics — algorithms for solving specific planning tasks related to resources, products, and orders;
Integration with other components of SAP APO (Advanced Planning and Optimization) and OLTP systems;
Optimization of workload and smart use of resources with the optimization tool;
Alert Monitor — alerts tracking and control.
