SAP SD

SAP SD is part of SAP ECC's Logistics function and integrates with other modules, including Production Planning (PP), Plant Maintenance (PM), Quality Management (QM), Materials Management (MM), Finance and Controlling (FICO), and Human Resources (HR).

Working in conjunction with the other modules, SAP SD enables an order-to-cash cycle business process. SD handles all the details in the sales and distribution part of the cycle, according to SAP.

In a typical cycle, SD generates a sales quote and the customer then places a sales order, the goods are picked from a warehouse or production facility and shipped to the customer, an invoice is sent with the order and accounts receivable settles the payment with the customer.

SAP Sales and Distribution module is a part of SAP Logistics module that manages customer relationship starting from raising a quotation to sales order and billing of the product or service. This module is closely integrated with other modules like SAP Material Management and PP.

This institute will be extremely useful for professionals who aim to understand the basics of SAP SD and implement it in practice. It is especially going to help consultants who are mainly responsible for implementing sales, billing, and transportation of products.

Each step in the process generates transactions in the SD module, which then generate further transactions in the other ECC modules.
