Source 6

Technical Process in MRP: 1. Very important, the sequence was asked. 2. In make to order scenario what lot size will be used.3. Use of Dynamic safety stock, it was tricky question because it asked the same calculation of dynamic safety stock with different words: formula is Average daily requirements * target range of coverage, but for formulae the wordings was slightly changed. It was asked with reference to a customer not directly. 3 question on Screen shots of SAP:Routing selection : 1. What actually happened when the system showed up the message for No routing selected, It was referring to the routing selection method.2. Also where you mention about the routing selection. 3. One question on the screen shot on Planning Table, No requirement element was selected as such was the error message, what u made wrong in setting was the question. Firming - 2 questions, 1. There were questions about the different firming types which our Sir has written in book about the choices to be made for automatic and manual selection, please byheart it if possible about those selections. 2. About the relationship: for Example if firming indicator is given or Planning horizon is given which will be taken on prioriity. Capacity Levelling: 3 questions but sorry to say I dont remember it much. Also one queston on how capacity reduction takes place. Long term Planning: 3 questions, one question was about something like this: What is the difference in the area of Long term Planning apart from short term and some comparison with MPS, if anybody among us got this question please try to elaborate. There was one question like this: By backward

Page 19: SAP_PP Cert Questions

scheduling the starting date was in the past, so how would you go to plan your things: The answer was by simulation. Multisite planning: 1 questions about the one step procedure and two step procedure. Please have a look over it. Read it carefully about the stock transfers procudure between plants, also there was some option of having up an alternative plant there, I mean is it possible or not.

REM: Master Data for REM, I was very confused on this question since the options were different, some of the options were : Production Supply Area, Repetative Manufacturing Profile, Production Version, Product Cost collector and 1 more different option, I dont know I made this one right or not. Order settlement for repetative manufacturing - Product Cost collector. MRP: I think no body cant write the questions it was quite lengthy, since they were not asking the strategies straight, they were asked by mixing the scenario with 3 different strategies, I think BOSS will be able to explain this well since he got the highest in this section. But some questions are listed below were asking the same this, So you please be clear on the following points: 1. How consumption takes place for different strategies.2. Which are MTO or MTS strategies very clearly in your mind without any place of doubt in your mind.3. Availability Check in different strategies.Please also try to remember these strategies with their description also. Availablity Check: When availability check is possible, at the time of production order release, confirmation,... 3 more options. General Questions: 1. What the sequence of master you make but asked with reference ot customer requirements: Answer: Material Master, BOM, Work Center, Routing.2. Master Data of Kanban - Control Cycle and Supply Area.3. For what MPS is used for -- For Critical Items.4. Can BOM be a Client Level Data.5. MRP areas about the storage locations, MTO is not used in storage location of MRP and three areas of MRP. 6. Highest Organisation Structure in PP. No questions on: APO, EWB, Navigation, Only 2 question on Solution manager.

Source 7

- famous 5.6

- Scaling i.e., split the plan order (that long question)

- technical process in requirement planning - net requirement, lot size, order type, sequencing, BoM explosion

- interoperation time - q time, wait time, move time + float

Page 20: SAP_PP Cert Questions

- sequence - BoM, Work centre, routing and then assign the component to operation 20

- lower level components are kept ready and final assy. kicks off on receipt of sales order - what is the strategy (50)

- planning is done at assy level, strategy is at assy level, sales order creats the production order for final assy (little more on strategy 70) - question was, which is the strategy

- which are the item category - stock item, non stock item, document (three correct) + 3 more which were wrong

- assignment - many companies can be assigned to one controlling area, one controlling area can not be assigned to many company

- valuation area - basically the valuation decided once done can not be changed.

- material type and ind. type - ind, type can not be changed, mat type can be changed with certain restriction

- Solu manager - which are the solution maps (few right and few wrongs)

- one question on NETCH, NETPL etc.

Source 8 You are a project manager of SAP implementation. A confusion has arises regarding the

procurement type. What will be your suggestion to convince them.(Single)

a. If you do X, procurement may be internal and external. But system will assign for internal first.

b. X will be sufficient remaining will be controlled by special procurement key.

c. Need to be defined E,F and X for different procurement.

d. Do E or F. There will be no problem at all. Unnecessary X should not be given. No flexibility problem will be there regarding materiel procurement.

MRP technical process.

Capacity planning-Machine is running from 7:00 to 3:00 and break time 1hr. Efficiency 80%. Overload 110%. What is the operating hours for individual capacity1. Ans:5.6hrs.

When capacity gets reduced.

How to do capacity leveling.

What is the function of midpoint scheduling. Is this require to capacity levelling.

What is the function of SAP helpdesk.

What is the right sequence: LTP-DM-SOP-MRP-Capacity planning.

Page 21: SAP_PP Cert Questions

Master data in repetitive manufacturing.

Master data In KANBAN.

Advantage of KANBAN. a)Lesser planning effort. b)Easy for material staging. c)Space saving. d) No requirement calculation required.

Two questions- They have shown the warning in status bar(not the full screen). Asked for what the warning was coming. One was: Material not found. Another I don't remember. Transaction codes will be visible in status bar. So to give the answer code and error massages should be correlated.

From which data tab in work center the costing related formula will be taken for Costing.

No straight question from strategy. All are twisted. If the fundamentals is clear about the strategy answering will be very ease. I gat five questions from strategy(Got 10,20,30,40,50,70 all types)

What will be the setting in various parameters including material master if you shift from one strategy. What will be the effect in Stock/Requirement list also.

Dynamic safety stock. How the quantity is calculated with respect to to period.

Solution manager- 3 questions.

MPS,LTP,Multi site planning,MRP result,MRP area: each one question(whatever marking is being done by Chalapati Sir is enough).

TSCM:40- Page no 173 & 174.

NETCH, NETPL- One question.

MRP in simulation mode:TSCM:40. Page-143.

One question from prerequisite of MRP-TSCM40. Page-127. Specially planning file entry.

BOM and routing selection in production order.

Read PP master data when can be done and when can't be done.

Availability checking for component, capacity-3 questions.

Where the backflash can be set(different options).

Charecteristics and setting of PP-PDC. Application of the same.

Significance of TECO. What can be done after TECO and what can't be done.

Selection of default storage location.

Where the process order can be applied. TSCM:42-Page-18.
