Question: Review on Design-to-Operate or Production Planning & Execution (PP) Process.


Answer: SAP PP or Production Planning and Execution which was likely introduced some time around 1979 when SAP R2 was Released (remember that R1 was mostly Financial functionality which was released in 1972)! Early versions of SAP, like SAP R/2, included capabilities for manufacturing, sales, and distribution, which formed the foundation for what later became the PP module. 
Some Milestone of major PP module development timeline: 
• 1998: SAP's Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module was launched, which included Demand Planning (DP), Supply Network Planning (SNP), PP/DS (Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling) functionality, and Global ATP (GATP) etc.
• 2015: SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) was introduced, and in later years, PP/DS was integrated into S/4HANA. SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) is a cloud-based solution that helps companies streamline and optimize their supply chain planning processes. It provides a unified platform for demand planning, supply planning, sales and operations planning (S&OP), and inventory management, enabling better decision-making and improved supply chain performance. 
• 2018: PP/DS was launched as an embedded version within SAP S/4HANA. 
The remaining PP component in S/4HANA 2023 are:
Planning: Sales.& Operations Planning (SOP)
Planning: Long Term Planning (LTP) - Simulations
Planning: Master Production Scheduling (MPS) - Planning for Finished Goods
Planning: Material Requirement Planning (MRP) - Planning for Raw Materials
Planning: Embedded Production Planning & Detailed Scheduling (PPDS) - Advanced Planning
Execution: PPDI Discrete Manufacturing Execution using Production Orders 
Execution: PPDI Discrete Manufacturing Execution using Repetitive Manufacturing 
Execution: PPPI Process Manufacturing Execution using Processn Orders 
Execution: PPDI or PI using Kanban
