SAP-centric logistics execution
Bulk logistics in milling & mining
Variability in milling & mining operations
In milling and mining, variations in material composition, processing, and transport conditions influence the final quantity of bulk materials, from raw minerals and processed outputs to cement and mineral by-products. Such factors create discrepancies between planned and actual quantities in SAP S/4HANA. To guarantee financial accuracy, differences must be identified, validated, and reconciled.
Manual processes across multiple systems often handle reconciliation today, increasing operational effort while introducing the potential for errors and delays.
Resolution through automation
SAP S/4HANA SDM addresses this challenge by extending SAP S/4HANA in alignment with standard SAP functionality. Material movements and physical changes are captured, validated and reconciled directly in SAP using automated, rule-based processes.
