Sell from Stock (SfS)

The SAP Sell from Stock (SfS) benchmark was introduced in 2025 as a new Standard Application Benchmark as part of SAP’s Benchmark Portfolio. The SfS-Benchmark is released for non-SAP HANA supported platforms and is based on SAP ERP 6.0 EHP8.

The Sell from Stock Benchmark covers a sell-from-stock scenario, which includes the creation of a customer order with five line-items and the corresponding delivery with subsequent goods movement and invoicing.

It consists of the following transactions:

  • Create an order with five line-items (VA01)
  • Create a delivery for this order (VL01N)
  • Display the customer order (VA03)
  • Change the delivery (VL02N) and post goods issue
  • List 40 orders for one sold-to party (VA05)
  • Create an invoice (VF01)

Each benchmark user has his or her own master data, such as material, vendor, or customer master data to avoid data-locking situations.
