Über dieses Buch

This book is about running modern industrial enterprises with the help of information systems.

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is the core of business informa­tion processing. An ERP system is the backbone of most companies' information systems landscape. All major business pro­cesses are han­dled with the help of this system.

Supply chain management (SCM) looks beyond the individual company, taking into account that enterprises are increasingly concen­trating on their core com­petencies, leaving other activities to suppliers. With the growing dependency on the partners, effective supply chains have become as important for a com­pany's suc­cess as efficient in-house processes.

This book covers typical business processes and shows how these processes are implemented. Examples are presented using the leading systems on the market – SAP ERP and SAP SCM. In this way, the reader can understand how business processes are actually carried out "in the real world".

1. Business Information Systems
Abstract
The basic questions we will answer in this book are as follows: What are the core information systems a business firm needs today, what do these systems do, and how can they be used effectively?
Karl E. Kurbel
2. MRP: Material Requirements Planning
Abstract
The first application systems for manufacturing companies in the 1960s were systems for material requirements planning (MRP). Even though the roots of MRP are fairly old, most of the MRP functionality is still available in today’s ERP systems. In this chapter, the master data for MRP are described, followed by an explanation of the main functional areas supported by MRP.
Karl E. Kurbel
3. MRP II: Manufacturing Resource Planning
Abstract
The outcome of material requirements planning is quantities—primary and secondary requirements assigned to different periods. The main disadvantage of the MRP approach is that it is not certain whether the requirements can be fulfilled, because the manufacturing capacities are not taken into consideration. In order to create a feasible plan, material requirements planning has to be augmented with capacity planning and scheduling. For this purpose, further master data are needed than those discussed in Sect.​ 2.​1. In this chapter, we will first describe the most important data structures and then the planning approach of manufacturing resource planning (MRP II).
Karl E. Kurbel
4. ERP: Enterprise Resource Planning
Abstract
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is a term that was created in continuation of the earlier terms material requirements planning (MRP) and manufacturing resource planning (MRP II). While manufacturing resource planning focused on the resources needed for manufacturing, the idea behind enterprise resource planning is to consider all resources necessary for the success of the enterprise.
Karl E. Kurbel
5. Case: SAP ERP
Abstract
The best-known ERP system for years has been that of SAP AG, a German software company based in Walldorf, Baden. The name of the system, however, has changed several times over the years.
Karl E. Kurbel
6. ERP System Implementation
Abstract
Implementing an ERP system in an organization is a complex undertaking due to several factors.
Karl E. Kurbel
7. Manufacturing Systems
Abstract
In this chapter, information systems that are closely connected with manufacturing will be described, including manufacturing execution systems and engineering information systems used for the technological preparation of manufacturing and products. Related with these are systems for the management of master data over their life cycle. All these systems are not part of a conventional ERP system, but they have many interfaces with enterprise resource planning.
Karl E. Kurbel
8. SCM: Supply Chain Management
Abstract
Enterprise resource planning (ERP), as well as the earlier approaches manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) and material requirements planning (MRP), focuses on an individual company, in particular on the planning and control within the company. In contrast to this, supply chain management (SCM) looks at chains (or networks) of companies connected with each other through supplier-customer relationships.
Karl E. Kurbel
9. SCM Data Structures and Advanced Planning
Abstract
In this chapter, extensions regarding the ERP data structures and the methods used to solve planning problems will be discussed. While the basic data and the solution approaches of ERP continue to be employed in supply chain management, additional data structures and new approaches are also needed.
Karl E. Kurbel
10. Case: SAP SCM
Abstract
In this chapter, an example of an SCM system will be presented—SAP SCM. This umbrella term combines several solutions for different parts of supply chain management. The core module is SAP APO (advanced planner and optimizer). Since APO is a very comprehensive solution, and was the first available SCM component by SAP, many people still equate it with SAP SCM.
Karl E. Kurbel
11. Current and Future Trends
Abstract
Throughout this book, methodological and technological approaches to enterprise resource planning and supply chain management have been presented. Most of these approaches are supported by current ERP and SCM systems and are implemented today in many companies.
