Q&A in Class (2025-11-12) S46800
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: What are the new functionalities related to Cross-Application SD-MM processes?
Answer: There are no documented full list of functionalities found but the following are known functinalites as at S/4HANA 2023 (probably the following in not a conclusive list).
- Advanced Intercompany Sales for 2-or-more Subsidiaries (External Customer) with integrated + automated intercompany sales order, purchase order, goods movement across the different subsidiaries.
- The Advanced Intercompany Sales process in SAP S/4HANA is an enhanced solution that includes and directly supports Advanced Intercompany Stock Transfer (STO) as part of the same integrated offering. These processes are built on the same framework to automate intercompany transactions between affiliated companies.
- SAP S/4HANA "Value Chain Management (VCM)" (available since 1511) is an integrated solution that provides end-to-end visibility and control over supply chain processes, from procurement to delivery. The visibility is only offered via a Fiori VCM Cockpit Fiori App.
- Collaboration via a business network for cross-application MM (Materials Management) and SD (Sales and Distribution) involves using a platform like SAP Business Network to connect buyers and suppliers, allowing for real-time, integrated data flow between the two modules. This process improves inventory management, streamlines order fulfillment, and ensures greater accuracy by providing visibility into supply chain processes like material availability, production status, and fulfillment status across multiple parties.
- The Advanced Subcontracting functionality in S/4HANA including simplified planning with subcontracting MRP areas, real-time integration with planning tools like SAP IBP, and robust master data management. The process is more streamlined and efficient than in previous versions in ECC, allowing for separate planning of each subcontractor without needing a specific material master for every component.
- S/4HANA now also supports (PM-MM-SD integration) for Advanced Subcontracting for Refurbishment of Equipment-Material-Serial through several features, including the use of refurbishment orders for external repair, the Subcontracting Monitor for process control, and a dedicated Subcontracting Cockpit Fiori app for managing purchasing documents. This allows companies to send parts to external service providers for repair and then track the process and return the refurbished items to their own stock.
- SAP S/4HANA Advanced Variant Configuration (AVC) is the next-generation solution for managing highly customizable products within SAP S/4HANA, integrating with SD, MM, and PP to handle complex sales, planning, and production scenarios. It uses enhanced modeling tools with a modern Fiori-based interface and leverages the HANA in-memory database for improved performance, offering more sophisticated rule-based configuration compared to the older LO-VC. AVC streamlines processes from engineering to sales by simplifying the management of product variants through features like advanced simulation and embedded.
- While EWM integration to SD and MM is not new as it was already available for ECC. However, integration of TM-EWM-SD-MM is only available for S/4HANA system. Basic and Advanced Transportation Management (TM) integration with SD, MM and EWM will be replacing the classing LE-TRA (Transportation) which will obsolete in 2027 (or 2030). Both SD Outbound Delivery and MM Inbound Delivery with SAP TM generates the Freight Unit (then Freight Order). The integration between SAP Transportation Management (TM) and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) links transportation and warehouse planning. A key aspect is the replication of SAP TM's Freight Order into an EWM Transportation Unit (TU), which streamlines activities like loading and staging within the warehouse at the TU level instead of individual deliveries. After warehouse tasks are completed in EWM, updates are sent back to TM to update the corresponding Freight Order and its associated Freight Units.
- The SAP Plants Abroad is a feature in certain versions of SAP S/4HANA, but not in all, such as the Public Cloud edition. In the on-premises and Private Cloud editions, it is used for cross-border tax reporting and management, including VAT and Intrastat. For Public Cloud and other cloud-based systems, a similar functionality called Foreign Plant or RITA is used instead.
- Advanced Returns Management (ARM) in SAP S/4HANA is an embedded solution designed to streamline, automate, and centralize all return processes (customer, supplier, and stock transfer returns) within a single, integrated framework. It offers enhanced visibility, improved financial control, and dynamic follow-up actions compared to traditional SAP returns processing. ARM provides a Unified and Automated Process in a single, integrated platform for managing customer returns, supplier returns, and inter- or intra-company stock transfer returns, automating the generation of all necessary follow-up documents like deliveries, goods movements, purchase orders, and credit memos.

Q&A in Class (2025-11-06) S4500
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: How to use Mass copy of Materials via MMCC?
Answer: To use MMCC in SAP, first you must have an existing Material Master. Then, use transaction MMCC to enter the reference Material Master, specify the number of Material to be "copied". Next, you will have to enter the new Material numbers (or leave blank if Material type allow Internal Number). Also don't forget to change the Material Description. Before executing the COPY, you can also select the Data level to copy (eg: Plant, Valuation, Warehouse etc) + Plant & SLoc (or other Org areas) if needed. The result screen is a LOG that shows success or failure.
See the following Blog Post for the step:

Question: How to add more than one Ordering Address for Business Partner Vendor in S/4HANA?
Answer: Although the S/4HANA Business Partner allow validity period for the BP Vendor Address but it is not used for more than one Ordering Address like in the above case where Vendor BP69 is the Vendor where it is the Main Company of Vendor which will perform the Material or Service Delivery, Invoicing and Payee; it has 2 branches as the Ordering Address BP69-1 and BP69-2. Note the 2 branches will have to be created as Business Partner with BP Role "0000000" (Address) and "FLVU01" (Purchasing Organization). ("FLVU00" (Company Code) is not required for BP69-1 and BP69-2). When testing PR to PO conversion using FIORI App "Processing PR Professional (V2)" (F1048A), the dialogue to select the Ordering Address is not available (as of today). BUT when converting PR to PO via ME21N; there is a dialogue to select the Ordering Address.
Additional configuration is not required for this example, please refer to the Blog Posts below for the settings and simulation of the scenario:

See the following Blog Post:
Answer: Both MRP Types "VB" and "V1" are standard SAP Manual Re-Order Point MRP Types with parameters that allow configuration for external requirement considerations. The MRP Type can be coupled with different Lot Size Key and this example cover Lot Size key "Replenishment to Maximum Stock Level" where standard SAP Lot Size "HB" and "H1" can be selected where the difference is also if external requirements are to be considered. It is important to match the correct Lot Size Key to the MRP Type to obtain the desired planning results. The purpose of a replenishment maximum is to maintain a high but not excessive inventory level by ensuring stock is always replenished up to a predetermined maximum quantity when it drops below a minimum threshold. This prevents stockouts for fast-moving items, especially when space is limited, and can reduce the frequency of replenishment tasks.

Question: Does the Delivery Plant assignment to Sales Ord + DC combination in the Enterprise Structure combination determine the priority of Delivery Plant assignment in the Sales Order?
.jpg)
Answer: NO, the configuration transaction "OVX6" of the above in the Enterprise Structure is the pre-requisite ALLOWED delivery Plant(s) to be selected in the following Master Data:
1. Customer-Material Info Record (VD51, VD52)2. Ship-to Party (BP3. Material Master Sales Area (MM01, MM02)
If the Delivery Plant is not defined as the ALLOWED plant for the Sales Org + DC combination, then it is not available as selection in the 3 Master Data above.
Note: SAP can select a different Delivery Plant via Global ATP (GATP) in the APO system (released since 2000) or the Advanced ATP (aATP) (released for S/4HANA in 2015). Both features uses Rules and Alternative Plant determination to find a more suitable location when the requested plant has insufficient stock. This function, in GATP is referred to as "Location Substitution" or "Alternative-Based Confirmation", allows the system to automatically propose a different plant and/or substitute material to fulfill a Sales Order, based on pre-configured rules.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: What are the new functionalities related to Cross-Application SD-MM processes?
Answer: There are no documented full list of functionalities found but the following are known functinalites as at S/4HANA 2023 (probably the following in not a conclusive list).
- Advanced Intercompany Sales for 2-or-more Subsidiaries (External Customer) with integrated + automated intercompany sales order, purchase order, goods movement across the different subsidiaries.
- The Advanced Intercompany Sales process in SAP S/4HANA is an enhanced solution that includes and directly supports Advanced Intercompany Stock Transfer (STO) as part of the same integrated offering. These processes are built on the same framework to automate intercompany transactions between affiliated companies.
- SAP S/4HANA "Value Chain Management (VCM)" (available since 1511) is an integrated solution that provides end-to-end visibility and control over supply chain processes, from procurement to delivery. The visibility is only offered via a Fiori VCM Cockpit Fiori App.
- Collaboration via a business network for cross-application MM (Materials Management) and SD (Sales and Distribution) involves using a platform like SAP Business Network to connect buyers and suppliers, allowing for real-time, integrated data flow between the two modules. This process improves inventory management, streamlines order fulfillment, and ensures greater accuracy by providing visibility into supply chain processes like material availability, production status, and fulfillment status across multiple parties.
- The Advanced Subcontracting functionality in S/4HANA including simplified planning with subcontracting MRP areas, real-time integration with planning tools like SAP IBP, and robust master data management. The process is more streamlined and efficient than in previous versions in ECC, allowing for separate planning of each subcontractor without needing a specific material master for every component.
- S/4HANA now also supports (PM-MM-SD integration) for Advanced Subcontracting for Refurbishment of Equipment-Material-Serial through several features, including the use of refurbishment orders for external repair, the Subcontracting Monitor for process control, and a dedicated Subcontracting Cockpit Fiori app for managing purchasing documents. This allows companies to send parts to external service providers for repair and then track the process and return the refurbished items to their own stock.
- SAP S/4HANA Advanced Variant Configuration (AVC) is the next-generation solution for managing highly customizable products within SAP S/4HANA, integrating with SD, MM, and PP to handle complex sales, planning, and production scenarios. It uses enhanced modeling tools with a modern Fiori-based interface and leverages the HANA in-memory database for improved performance, offering more sophisticated rule-based configuration compared to the older LO-VC. AVC streamlines processes from engineering to sales by simplifying the management of product variants through features like advanced simulation and embedded.
- While EWM integration to SD and MM is not new as it was already available for ECC. However, integration of TM-EWM-SD-MM is only available for S/4HANA system. Basic and Advanced Transportation Management (TM) integration with SD, MM and EWM will be replacing the classing LE-TRA (Transportation) which will obsolete in 2027 (or 2030). Both SD Outbound Delivery and MM Inbound Delivery with SAP TM generates the Freight Unit (then Freight Order). The integration between SAP Transportation Management (TM) and SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) links transportation and warehouse planning. A key aspect is the replication of SAP TM's Freight Order into an EWM Transportation Unit (TU), which streamlines activities like loading and staging within the warehouse at the TU level instead of individual deliveries. After warehouse tasks are completed in EWM, updates are sent back to TM to update the corresponding Freight Order and its associated Freight Units.
- The SAP Plants Abroad is a feature in certain versions of SAP S/4HANA, but not in all, such as the Public Cloud edition. In the on-premises and Private Cloud editions, it is used for cross-border tax reporting and management, including VAT and Intrastat. For Public Cloud and other cloud-based systems, a similar functionality called Foreign Plant or RITA is used instead.
Answer: SAP's "Plants Abroad" functionality allows a single company code to manage inventory and tax reporting for multiple physical locations in different countries, primarily in the EU (European Union) and GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council), without setting up separate legal entities. It automates VAT and Intrastat postings for cross-border stock movements and ensures the correct VAT registration numbers are used on sales and purchasing documents. This is achieved by assigning foreign plants to the home country's company code and configuring tax codes with a specific "reporting country" field.
Setting up Plants Abroad in SAP S/4HANA involves configuring the system to handle Value-Added Tax (VAT) and other tax-related reporting for a company code operating across multiple countries. The process requires configuration in Financial Accounting (FI), Materials Management (MM), and Sales and Distribution (SD).• On-premises and Private Cloud: The traditional "Plants Abroad" functionality is available for managing cross-border stock movements and tax reporting.• Public Cloud: This version uses a different solution called "Foreign Plant" or RITA to achieve the same outcome.
• Essentials Edition: In the Essentials edition, "Plants Abroad" is not supported due to complex tax requirements, and instead, company codes are recommended for inter-company transactions to manage taxation.
Possible Scenario description to be tested soon:
A "SAP Plants Abroad" demo involves showing a business scenario where a company in one country (e.g., Germany) sells goods to a customer in another country (e.g., France) and the goods are delivered directly from a plant in the second country. The demo typically shows the process of creating a special "Plants Abroad" transaction that handles the required tax and reporting for this cross-border sale. (this scenario example will likely be available in the next S46800 colleciton)
Step 1: Activate Plants Abroad
- Go to SPRO > Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/Purchases > Basic Settings > Plants Abroad > Activate Plants Abroad.
- select the check-box to activate the functionality. This enables new fields in other configurations, such as the "Reporting Country".
.jpg)
Step 2: Tax code configuration and FI related configuration
- Key steps for setting up Plants Abroad include entering foreign
- VAT registration numbers
- Defining country settings for tax reporting
- Defining tax codes with the reporting country
- Assigning the country to the tax calculation procedure.
- Exchange Rate Type is also required for the Plant Abroad Country. This setting is essential for tax reporting purposes, as you must define the exchange rate type and country currency for each foreign country to correctly handle cross-border transactions and VAT reporting.
Step 3: MM and SD configuraiton
- Additional configuration involves setting up shipping data for plants in Materials Management and configuring pricing procedures and billing documents in Sales and Distribution. Master data for materials, customers, and vendors also needs to be created or updated. After configuration, the process supports transactional flows like stock transfers and sales, generating accounting documents with correct tax codes.
Click below for official SAP documentation on the S/4HANA Financials "Plant Abroad" functionalities:
UPDATED (Oct.31.2025) on Detail steps required as Below:
• Step 1: Plants Abroad assignment to the Local Selling Company
IMG - Enterprise Structure > Assignment > Logistic-General > Assign Plant to Company OR OX18
(Verify the Plants Abroad in a different country (example in France) and Local Plant (example in Germany) is assigned to the Local Selling Company Code (Germany)
• Step 2: Activate Plants Abroad
IMG - Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/ Purchases > Basic Settings > Plants Abroad > Activate Plants Abroad
(SAP's "Plants Abroad" functionality is activated at the client level, which makes the functionality available across the entire SAP client. This activation adds a "Reporting country" field to transactions and tax code setups, which is essential for correctly reporting VAT in the relevant country.)
• Step 3: Enter Foreign VAT Registration Number
IMG - Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/ Purchases > Basic Settings > Plants Abroad > Enter VAT Registration Number for Plants Abroad or RTA
(A business does not get a single "VAT registration number for plants abroad" but needs a separate, country-specific VAT number for each foreign country where it is registered to conduct business. For companies using the SAP "Plants Abroad" functionality, this refers to a system feature that manages multiple VAT registrations within a single company code, allowing the system to use the correct VAT number for each country's transactions, instead of creating separate company codes for each one.)
• Step 4: Activate Plants Abroad
IMG - ABAP Platform > General Settings > Set Countries > Define Countries/Regions OR T-code OY01
(Activating "Plants Abroad" adds a new currency field and an exchange rate field in the "Set Country Global Parameters" configuration, which is where this assignment takes place. Update the "Country Currency" and "Exchange Rate" fields as needed for your foreign plants to ensure correct reporting and currency translation in this configuration.)
• Step 5: Configure Tax Code and Tax Reporting
IMG - Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Tax on Sales/ Purchases > Calculation > Define Tax Code for Sales and Purchases OR T-code FXTP
(For every Tax Code defined for the Country (Original Company Code), in the "Properties" screen, a field called "Reporting C/R (Reporting Country)" which is available only if the "Plants Abroad" setting has been Activated". The "Reporting Country" field will appear on the selection screen for VAT return reports and EC sales lists once the functionality is active.)
An actual scenario will be created and posted when a dedicated server from SAP is available with "Plants Abroad" activation where settings and simulation will be allowed for demonstration this scenario AND possible additional Configurations required.
