SAP MM: Materials Management for Procurement

Procurement and supply chain teams often inherit a configuration they never fully understand, which produces stock discrepancies and delayed payments that are then treated as user error. This course explains the mechanics. Delegates work through the material master and vendor master and the fields that govern downstream behaviour, purchase requisitions, purchase orders and the release strategies that control approval. Goods receipt and the accounting postings it generates are covered, along with the movement types that determine them. Invoice verification and three way matching follow, including the tolerance settings behind a blocked invoice. Inventory management, physical inventory and stock types are addressed. The course closes on the procure to pay reporting that shows where the cycle is actually stalling.
