Overview

How the SAP MM syllabus is organised

SAP MM covers everything a company does to buy and hold materials. A department raises a request, purchasing turns it into an order with a vendor, the goods arrive and are booked into stock, and the vendor invoice is checked against the order and the receipt before payment.

Each topic below combines the concept with practice on an SAP system. The order and depth can be adjusted for a batch, so ask for the current plan when you enquire. You can also download the brochure (PDF).

Topics

Topics covered in SAP MM

Material master. The central record of every item: description, units, valuation and plant data.
Vendor / Business Partner. The supplier record, including payment terms and purchasing data.
Purchase requisition and purchase order. The internal request and the formal order sent to the vendor (for example ME51N and ME21N).
Goods receipt. Books incoming goods into stock (transaction MIGO) and updates inventory value.
Invoice verification. Matches the vendor invoice with the order and goods receipt (transaction MIRO), known as three-way match.
Inventory management. Tracks stock levels, transfers, reservations and physical inventory counts.
Source determination. Helps pick the right vendor using info records, contracts and source lists.
Release strategies. Approval rules that decide who must approve a requisition or order.

Hands-on

The procure-to-pay process in MM

Practice should include walking through real business flows, for example:

A requirement appears, and a purchase requisition is created, manually or by MRP.
Purchasing selects a vendor and creates a purchase order.
The vendor delivers, and a goods receipt posts the stock and the accounting entry.
Invoice verification matches the invoice with the order and the receipt.
Payment is released through Financial Accounting.

S/4HANA

What is different in S/4HANA

Business Partner replaces separate vendor master maintenance.
Material numbers can be up to 40 characters long.
Material documents are stored in the simplified MATDOC table, which improves performance.
Many purchasing tasks are available as Fiori apps next to the classic transactions.
