MTO – MTS Scenario in SAP

MTO – MTS Scenarios in SAP

Make-to-Order
Your production orders are caused by sales orders. This means that your
ERP system must have a strong and intelligent link between its sales order
module and the production-planning module. Sales orders must be
translated into production orders. You should be able to monitor the
progress of individual production orders so that you can keep your
customers informed about a particular sales order.

Make-to-Stock
In this case production planning is based on a sales forecast for a
certain time, a year, six months or a quarter. The ERP must be able to
support the process of making a prognosis by providing statistical data
and projections based upon historical information. The transformation
of a sales forecast to a production planning is roughly similar to that
described above.
The advantage of producing for stock is that you are in most cases able
to spread the production evenly over a given time period, avoiding
most of the hectic scenes that often characterize make-to-order
production. There is much room for achieving a highly efficient and
effective manner of production.
