The interaction between purchasing, materials planning, and the management of material master data plays a crucial role in the procurement process and in ensuring that purchasing processes run smoothly. To ensure that your company is optimally supplied with materials, it is important to efficiently manage the link between the materials and the responsible buyers or MRP controllers. Previously, updating this link was a time-consuming task. Buyers and MRP controllers had to log into SAP, find the correct transaction, and manually query the material master data to check or change the appropriate assignments. This process is not only cumbersome, but also requires specific SAP knowledge to perform the necessary steps. Finally, in order to share the data with colleagues via Microsoft Teams, for example, it had to be laboriously posted as a screenshot or copied and pasted into the group conversation.
