SOP Configuration

SOP Configuration

In one of the implementations in my career we had to map the Sales and Operation Planning requirement of the company into SAP and give them the future projection. It was a Pharmaceutical company which had multiple Pharmacies across the country. Hence it was extremely important for them. We worked over the functionality so much in the test client that we remembered all the steps along with transaction codes by heart. The  following is a list of those Transaction codes along with Stepwise procedure which will help you in SOP functionality.  

The Structure MCVBRP is appended by ABAPer to include the required Key Figures used in the Planning table for the Client.

SD Month End Closing

The following is a typical to - do list for the Month-end closing activities in SD module:

1)    All those deliveries for which Goods Issues has been posted should be invoiced. 
 
2)    All Credit Memos (Return Billing Documents) should be created w.r.t Return Orders.

3)    Warehouse Personnel should confirm Picking for Open Deliveries [in case WMS is implemented]
 
4)    The Open deliveries, for which Stock was allocated but by mistake Stock transfer has been done, should be reversed so that PGI can be done for those open deliveries.

[Note] The reversal of Stock transfers should be done by MM

5)    Deliveries should be created for Open Orders
 
6)    SD-FI reconciliation should be performed by comparing SIS and FIS figures
