Production Operations with Manufacturing Execution System (1Y5)

This scope item covers the setup of the integration from SAP S/4HANA to Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES).

An MES integrates business and manufacturing processes that help to run efficient, high-quality production on the shop floor.

You can use this scope item as an example of how to integrate a local customer shop floor system directly into SAP S/4HANA, giving manufacturing staff a clear overview of production operations and improving analytical capability for the management team. SAP S/4HANA is the system of record for all master data. An MES or a shop floor system is the system of record for all work in progress (WIP) data.

This communication scenario provides end points (inbound and outbound), which are needed to integrate an on-premise third-party MES solution (Manufacturing Execution System) to production operation through ALE IDocs, BAPI, and OData calls.

Key Process Steps Covered

Create, schedule, and release production order in the SAP S/4HANA system
Create and release production order in a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) or shop floor system
Update production order in an MES and send information back to the SAP S/4HANA system
Confirm production order in the SAP S/4HANA system

Benefits

Simplifies the integration of SAP S/4HANA to Manufacturing Execution Systems to Production Operation
