Organizational structure in SAP

1. Deeply understand the internal structure and application scenarios of purchasing, sales and warehousing organizations; The relationship among purchasing, sales, warehousing and financial organizations.

a. sales organizations

sales organizations include distribution channels and product groups.

a sales region is a combination of sales organizations, distribution channels and product groups. Customers must establish/manage sales areas

sales offices, sales groups and sales representatives

B under sales areas, and purchasing organizations

purchasing groups

C under purchasing organizations. Sales/purchasing organizations can be defined at different organizational levels, such as groups, company codes and factories. Because the company code is related to finance. Naturally, the relationship between them is established

2. Does the organizational unit in the procurement/sales/inventory organizational structure need to establish an innuendo relationship with the administrative organizational unit? If you want to build it, how to build it? If not, why not build it?

it should be unnecessary. the sales/purchase/inventory organization is a system-defined organization, which may have a certain relationship with the administrative organization, or it may have an uncertain relationship or it may not have a relationship. This can meet the needs of different enterprises, and these organizations can be placed in different levels and establish different relationships with different units to realize the flexible organizational structure of the system.

3. how to control whether the purchasing control scope of the purchasing organization is at the level of inventory organization or warehouse?

4. control whether the sales control scope of the sales organization is at the level of inventory organization or warehouse, and how to control it?

5. Please explain in depth the relationship among factories, storage locations, storage types, special stocks, warehouses, storage types and positions in SAP and its application in procurement, sales/distribution, distribution/transportation

A. A factory can contain several storage locations. A warehouse can only belong to one factory

B, and several warehouses can belong to one warehouse (in the same factory).

C, distinguish different areas by storage type, such as receiving area, storage area, picking and distribution area, etc.

D,

E, in purchasing, sales/distribution, distribution/transportation, it has nothing to do with warehouse management, but the factory and warehouse place have relations, and enter inventory management.

6. How do the sales organizations, sales channels, product groups, sales offices and sales groups in SAP affect the basic data such as products, customers and prices? What are the grouping methods of products and customers related to the organizational structure, and what are their control points?

A, products (materials) are defined with different sales data according to the sales organization and sales channel (the product group to which the product belongs is defined in the master data)

B, customers are defined according to the sales region (the combination of sales organization, sales channel and product group)

C, price realization affects the sales organization/distribution channel, sales organization/distribution channel/price list type (. The pricing process is to combine materials, customers and sales areas in various ways, and at the same time implement the final price policy in the system according to the time requirements. This combination can meet the flexible and diverse price policies outside the system.

D, conversely, the price system of different levels defined in the same sales area is controlled according to the order of access

E, products include product groups, which are mainly used for material evaluation.

7. what specific impact does the setting of sales channels in sap have on sales business? Is credit related to sales organizations, purchasing organizations and inventory organizations? If so, how is the relationship between them realized? How is the group credit realized (for example, the credit of Company A and Group B (Company B has many independent accounting branches)

A. Credit control is completed by establishing credit control areas. Code that can assign credit control areas to companies; It has nothing to do with sales organization, purchase organization and inventory organization.

B, group credit control is realized by assigning credit control areas to different company codes. You can set the total credit limit for each credit control area and the maximum individual limit and minimum individual limit for each company to realize credit control among different companies in the group.

C. Cross-group credit control cannot be realized

8. How to handle the purchase and sale business among companies in the group in SAP; Correspondence between material purchase and purchasing organization, how to realize centralized purchase and decentralized purchase

A. The purchase and sale between companies in the group in SAP are realized through stocktransportorder. To realize the purchase and sale within the group, we must first define the relationship between purchase order type, supplier factory and delivery type, and also set the relationship between supplier factory, receiver factory and purchase order type for the purchase order type.

B, if a purchasing organization is assigned to multiple company codes, centralized purchasing of the group can be realized; A purchasing organization is only assigned to a company code or one or more factories to realize decentralized procurement

9. Should an inventory organization distinguish between factories and distribution centers, where factories implement MRP and distribution centers implement DRP?

there is no distinction in the p>SAP system. This problem can be solved by allocating PLANT that need to implement MRP and factories that need to implement DRP.

1. How to understand the concepts of SAP Location, storagelocation, shippingpoint, loadingpoint and transportation planningpoint? What are their relations with factories, warehouses and warehouses? What are their functions?

a. The departure point is the starting dock for goods transportation. A departure point can transport several factories, and a factory can also be completed by multiple departure points. The departure point is determined by the delivery factory (customer material master data, customer master data and material master data), ShippingConditions (for example, expedited and normal) and LoadingGroup (loading and unloading group: crane, forklift and manual). It has nothing to do with warehouses and positions

B. The point of shipment corresponds to the point of departure

11. What does the business scope, operation organization and actual management in SAP correspond to? Is the business scope and operating organization above the company code and how is it managed?

the business scope corresponds to the business department in the usual sense. The operating organization corresponds to the highest profitability analysis unit, which depends on how the enterprise conducts profitability analysis.

12. The combination of business documents and organizational structure requires the necessary organizational structure information. Why can't the organizational structure information be traced back from the creator?

A, the establishment of purchase orders needs to specify the purchasing organization and purchasing group

B, the establishment of sales orders. Sales region (sales organization/distribution channel/product group)

C needs to be established, and business documents in SAP system have no corresponding relationship with entities (and there is no need), and there is no concept of creator, only User. When querying, you can completely query from accounting books to vouchers and business documents, but not from the perspective of organizations.

13. under the current organizational structure of SAP, how are its budget decomposition, control and performance indicators issued?

Budgeting in SAP system can be reflected in many aspects, such as budgeting in investment management module IM and budgeting in fund management FM, but the control of the two is different. IM only controls large numbers, while FM will control them according to commitments and fund centers.

14. Can cost centers and profit centers cross company codes, or can they only be under a single company code? Are cost centers and profit centers related to sales organizations, purchasing organizations and inventory organizations? If so, how are their relationships realized?

A, cost center and profit center are cross-company codes, because they are concepts under cost control. Cost center and profit center are organizational units set in the view of management accounting, and have no direct relationship with purchasing and inventory organizations. However, when processing business documents, you may be required to enter them at the same time. If you are required to enter the purchasing organization in the header of the purchase order, if you are purchasing for a cost center, you will be required to enter the cost center in the table body of the purchase order, indicating the future expenses of XX cost center.

B, cost centers can correspond to multiple company codes

Supplement:

1. Companies with independent accounting qualifications (whether branches or subsidiaries) need to establish different company codes and correspond to different sales/purchasing organizations. Although there is contact with the parent company, it is handled like other cross-company businesses

2. Location refers to the specific location in the Plant. It is usually used in asset master data, specific equipment, functional location, W/C (work center) and PRT (production resources and tools) in asset management.
