SAP for Mill Products
The Business Process of Order Management and Execution
SAP for Mill Products solutions enable you to better manage order processing and execution – helping you to meet demand in a well-coordinated, flexible manner, react quickly to production problems or changes in demand, and ensure customer satisfaction.
SAP for Mill Products covers the key activities involved in streamlining order management and execution, including:
- Enterprise asset management – SAP solutions allow you to manage many aspects of asset management – including capital expenditures, asset investments, and asset maintenance – to reduce operating costs, improve asset utilization, and collaborate closely with engineering and maintenance contractors.
- Warehouse management – With SAP solutions, you can efficiently track, store, and move goods and materials – keeping inventory levels down while ensuring that a sufficient amount of product is on hand. You can pick and pack, control logistics documents, and monitor inbound and outbound movements using mobile devices and radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to expedite the movement of goods through the warehouse.
- Sales order management – With SAP for Mill Products, you can perform flexible order entry, create accurate delivery schedules, and configure and price products to the customer's satisfaction. The solutions support both make-to-order and make-to-stock sales and manufacturing strategies.
- Manufacturing scheduling and execution – SAP for Mill Products enables you to create feasible, optimized execution schedules that account for available material components, work center capability and capacity, and production resources and tools. SAP for Mill Products solutions can easily share schedule information with shop-floor manufacturing-execution systems and support both make-to-order and make-to-stock manufacturing scheduling and execution.
