SAP PP-PI (Production Planning – Process Industries) offers specific functionality for industries where the tracking of manufactured products via batches is essential, such as Pharma, Food & Beverages or Chemicals.
Apart from Batch Management, there are other specific requirements common to these industries also included in this component. Most of them require a tighter integration with the shop-floor machines (weighting or process units) or the strict following of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) guidelines.
