What is SAP MRP?

SAP MRP (Material Requirements Planning) is a core component of SAP's supply chain management solutions. It is a planning and control system used to manage manufacturing processes. SAP MRP helps businesses ensure that materials are available for production and products are available for delivery to customers. It involves forecasting demand, planning production, and managing inventory levels. SAP MRP determines the quantity and timing of materials needed based on the master production schedule, bill of materials, and inventory data. It is commonly used to optimize inventory levels, reduce lead times, and improve production efficiency.
