What are SAP S/4HANA MM Tables
SAP S/4HANA MM Tables, standing for SAP Materials Management Tables, are structured data formats within the SAP system that store and manage materials and inventory management information. These tables facilitate the organization, retrieval, and processing of data regarding procurement, inventory, vendor interactions, and other material-related activities. They serve as a database to support various business processes and decision-making in materials management.
Most Common SAP MM Tables
In our exploration of SAP MM tables, we find them organized into functional groups, each serving specific aspects of materials management. This includes categories like Material Master and Vendor Master Tables, which focus on core data about materials and suppliers.
Additionally, tables dedicated to Purchasing, Planning, Shipping, and Inventory Management play pivotal roles in streamlining the procurement cycle and maintaining efficient operations. This structured organization ensures seamless integration and data flow across various business processes.I have previously written about SE16N in my article Top 10 SAP Materials Management Transaction Codes here.
Viewing the SAP S/4HANA MM Tables
Exploring SAP S/4HANA MM tables can be a game changer if you’re a power user. These tables allow you to see more detailed information than what’s usually available, especially useful for in-depth reports. With SE16N, or SE11 you get to access a wider range of data and information about those fields, helping you understand materials management in greater depth.
