What is SAP Inventory Management?

SAP Inventory Management (SAP IM) is a component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) suite that helps businesses efficiently manage their inventory levels, track material movements, and optimize warehouse operations. It provides real-time visibility into inventory across multiple locations, enabling companies to reduce carrying costs, avoid stockouts, and improve order fulfillment. Common uses include managing goods receipts, goods issues, stock transfers, physical inventory counts, and reporting on inventory levels and values.
