Thank you in advanced! 🙂

SAP Sales and Distribution is one key components of SAP ERP system and is used to manage shipping, billing, selling and transportation of products followed by that SD is a part of SAP Logistics module that manages customer relationship starting from raising a quotation to sales order and billing of the product or service. This module is closely integrated with other modules like SAP Material Management and PP.

Hello kahlil_31
SAP MM (Materials Management) comprises inventory management (stock storage, stock transfers, physical inventory), purchasing (vendor selection, quotation, purchase agreements, stock transports), and invoice verification. MM purely deals with procurement although it has basic MRP functionality for forecasting. This forms the P2P (Procure to Pay) scenario.
SAP SD (Sales and Distribution) handles customer quotation, sales orders, goods delivery, invoices. This forms the OTC (Order to Cash) scenario.
Thanks & regards
