Section II Organization Structure Plants The plant is an operating area or branch within a company. The plant is assigned to a single company code. A plant has its own material master data. You can maintain data at plant level for the following views on a material master record in particular: MRP, Purchasing, Storage, Work scheduling, Production resources/tools, Forecasting, Quality management, Sales, Costing. Among this, views in bold would be used in case of Vedanta Alumina Ltd. As per discussion with Finance & Materials, there will be only four Company Code (1000,2000,3000,4000) and four plants (Non-Virtual) will be created which may be as follows: PRODUCTION PLANT 1000 2000 3000 DESCRIPTION VAL Alumina Plant VAL Power Plant VAL Smelter Plant

Storage Locations Storage location is an organizational unit allowing the differentiation of material stocks within a plant. All data referring to a particular storage location is stored at storage location level. This applies mainly to storage location stocks. Several storage locations can be assigned to a plant. The logical and physical storage locations will be configured to track the inventory in the shop floor. The configuration of the storage locations will be done according to the physical or the logical movement of materials in the shop floor. The detailed discussion on storage locations will come in the plant specific documentation. Proposed Storage Locations for plant relevant for PP.

Based on this requirement planned Order would be generated in the system for finished product. Raw Materials would be planned through consumption based planning. Relevant information related to Re-order point and safety stock would be provided in the material master record. Lot-sizing Procedure Using this system should calculate the Order quantity for planned order. It is consumed from material planning. We would use Lot-for-Lot Order Quantity in general (EX).

To-Be Processes Production Planning Processes The Business Blue Print is divided into various sections as defined by the different processes as discussed during to-be and Expectation from SAP. These processes are: Finished Product Planning. Raw Materials Planning. Consumables Planning. Production Scheduling. Capacity Evaluation. Order Execution. Goods Movement. Cost Analysis. Report Analysis.
To carry out these processes, certain Masters are required to be maintained prior to carry out the Transactions and Reports. This master is listed below with explanation text. These Masters are created before Go-Live through Mass data upload process. They are fixed or constant in nature. The system would access these master data while the user will be carrying out transaction on day-to-day basis. So from user point of view also it mandatory to understand the relevant or organization specific master data in detail so that actual business process is replicated into the system in terms of data and hence phenomenal purity.

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 both for internal purposes and for sales and distribution. This process involves the monitoring of stocks and, in particular, the automatic creation of procurement proposals for purchasing and production. In doing so, MRP tries to strike the best balance possible between
Optimising the service level and Minimizing costs and capital lockup.

Batch Management
The manufacturing mode of VAL is a typical case of process manufacturing scenario. Here, batch tracking is not possible N physically, neither it is required. So production in SAP as well as in reality wont be captured through batches in case of power plant. Material Classification can be done with the standard material classification system in SAP (Class Type 001). This will allow better search.
8.3
Material Classification
Characteristic is a property that describes and differentiates objects. Classification Creation/change of Class and Characteristics Fully system supported Example: length, colour, weight, etc. Class is an assembly of characteristics that can be attributed to a N product (or to several similar products). It can also be defined as a grouping of similar products according to common characteristics Example Pump class, Boiler class etc.

Creating a process order is not a stand-alone process. It is generally done before the commencement of manufacturing. The quantity to be produced under such a process Order has to be mentioned clearly. The scheduling of process order that has to be followed really for floor happens at this phase and system schedules the process order.
