SAP MM Add-ons related to Inventory Optimization

[samnovice_new]

Hi,

I am doing little research on certain Add-ons for SAP ERP MM module which would be useful in regard to Inventory Optimization process. I am aware of great features which SAP SCM offers provides, but idea at this point is to make the most of MM core + some useful Add-ons.

For example, I noticed that standard MM core offers ABC analysis, but at same time lacks XYZ analysis. Is there some Add-on for SAP MM core for XYZ analysis, basic forecasting or anything similar?

Thanks.
Sam

Hi again,

Final answer on my question after brief research is that there are SAP Add-ons available for standard SAP ERP MM.

For anyone who is interested same as I was, you can follow this link as example

and you will probably find what you are looking for.

I hope this post will help someone in future.

All the best.

Hi Kunal,

Thanks for explanation and sorry for mistake in letter.

As stated in my first post, I understand that SAP MM core lacks XYZ functionality.

My basic question is there some Add-on for SAP MM core which would improve Inventory Optimization process?

Hi Kungal,

Thanks for the answer.

Not sure if you have read whole post, but but idea at this point is to make the most of MM core + some useful Add-ons, since we don't use SAP SCM or APO.

Hello , Name is Kunal..

I gone through your complete post and in MM we don't have XYZ analysis , its provided and used in APO only.

. Is there some Add-on for SAP MM core for XYZ analysis, basic forecasting or anything similar?

no there is no functionality of XYZ in SAP MM core.
