MRP Support Cockpit in S/4 HANA

Dear Colleagues,

SAP has published a report called PP_MRP_SUPPORT (Note 3199068), which can assist in analyzing issues that may arise in the MRP environment.

The report provides access to:

  • MRP-relevant material master data,
  • Sourcing Master data for in-house and external replenishment
  • Implemented User Exits and BAdI’s(w/o AMDP BAdI’s)
  • The ability to navigate to customizing settings
  • MRP Background Jobs
  • MRP Consistency check
  • Navigation portal to helpful transactions

The report is quite user-friendly and self-explanatory:

In addition to its other capabilities, the PP_MRP_SUPPORT report also has the ability to perform a detailed consistency check on customizing settings, number ranges, and master data.

Additionally, the report also includes links to the following transactions:

  • DBA Cockpit (DBACOCKPIT)
  • MRP Customizing (OPP1)
  • Custom Code Analysis (/SDF/CD_CCA)
  • MRP Live Settings (PPHMRPSET)
  • Details for Materials in MRP on HANA (MD_MRP_FORCE_CLASSIC)

 

In my opinion, the PP_MRP_SUPPORT report can be a useful tool for monitoring the health of the MRP and for understanding MRP results based on the master data.
