Restructuring the Material Master Data

Joint project between the IAL and a regional industrial company

 

Approach

  • Development of a classification system and a concept for the component designation, taking into account the relevant standards and terminologies
  • Subdivision into standard parts/purchase parts, semi-finished products, assemblies and finished products
  • Consideration of the option of a later electronic procurement
  • Customizing the Classification System in SAP R/3, Module MM
  • Conversion of material master data using the developed classification system
  • Cleaning of the current material master; elimination of redundancies
