2. Training Objectives
The objective of this training is to provide the hands on experience of the SAP transactions to the
users. As per business process of EO, the components would be added during production order
creation. For those raw materials which need to be procured externally, Purchase Requisitions
would get generated when MRP is run. MRP would be run on the finished product.

Training ID SAP_PP_03 would demonstrate MRP run and creation of Purchase Requisitions.

3. MRP

The main function of material requirements planning is to guarantee material availability, that is, it
is used to procure or produce the requirement quantities on time. This process involves the
monitoring of stocks and, in particular, the automatic creation of procurement proposals for
purchasing.
