Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS) in SAP S/4HANA empowers companies to easily create feasible and optimized production plans and procurement proposals. PP/DS performs finite capacity planning, which means it considers real-world limitations and constraints, such as available machinery capacity or raw materials.

To accelerate the improvement and modernization of our solution, we are establishing a new development team in Budapest following the Harmonized Product Operating Model.
