Challenges and our solution approach
Your Challenge: It is highly frustrating and time consuming to have to exit screens and switch between applications (to access) because the data that you need is not there (the data required when needed and where it is needed).
Our Solution: Extracting data from the S4 core and customising PP/DS to make the data directly visible inside the view gives the users the information the data they need where they need it!
Your Challenge: SAP PP/DS offers a variety of heuristics to help manage your planning, but because the complex nature of real world processes, these heuristics don't always match the business processes. The mismatch can be big or very small and yet it can be unsurmountable, if the SAP interface does not allow you to change it.
Our Solution: This is where customisation comes in: We modify the heuristic to work exactly like you want. An example of this is, one particular customer needed three heuristics to be executed, in sequence, in the same planning run. PP/DS only allowed one heuristic to be executed for every planning run. So we customised the existing functionality in PP/DS so that three heuristics could be executed in one planning run.
Your Challenge: Managing all the processes related to scheduling within the interactive planning screens of PP/DS (scheduling planning board, product planning table) is vital for a great user experience. Implementing new functionality within the interactive planning screens means that planners do not have to stay switching between other windows to complete their planning and scheduling.
Our Solution: A new feature that we developed for our customers was to implement a by-product management process directly within the product planning table. As the planner schedules the various operations they can manage the by-products created by the production process and then reassign those by-products to other existing demands in the system. New views have been added to the product planning table to visualize the required data.
