WHY GO FOR SIMPLE LOGISTICS
WHAT IS SAP S/4 HANA SIMPLE LOGISTICS
SAP S/4 HANA(SIMPLE LOGISTICS) Early in 2015 and with much fanfare, SAP executives announced SAP S/4 HANA, SAP had originally included the Simple Finance product. S/4HANA promised that in the fourth quarter customers would see another S/4HANA release, referred to then as Simple Logistics. S/4HANA Enterprise Management is the new name for the product formerly known as Simple Logistics.
SAP S/4 HANA(SIMPLE LOGISTICS) Contd. Imagine that the S/4HANA Finance release from earlier this year is the tip of an iceberg—a small fraction of the entire body. Then expand your imagination to see that S/4HANA Enterprise Management encompasses a whole mountain of ice, most of which is hidden beneath the waterline. It’s true that S/4HANA Enterprise Management’s features and functions are similar to the scope of ECC 6.0. This is not a complete rewrite of the 250 million or so lines of code that encompass ECC—that would certainly take much more time to pull off.
SAP S/4 HANA(SIMPLE LOGISTICS) Contd. -- How can SAP S/4 HANA Simple Logistics Increase Logistics Efficiency?? SAP Simple Logistics uses the data processing ability of S/4HANA to provide simpler, faster and more efficient approaches to logistics and supply chain problems. Using the data processing capabilities in S/4HANA, Simple Logistics helps improve efficiency and addresses a number of supply chain issues.

SAP S/4 HANA SIMPLE LOGISTICS – KEY INNOVATIONS
SAP S/4 HANA SIMPLE LOGISTICS – KEY INNOVATIONS (Contd.)
BUSINESS BENEFITS OF SAP S/4 HANA SIMPLE LOGISTICS INVENTORY MANAGEMENT: Through an internal redesign of database tables, Simple Logistics not only provides comprehensive information on inventory management but also offers information such as data aggregation and intuitive reporting functions that were previously unavailable.
MATERIAL REQUIREMENT PLANNING (MRP): When companies implement SAP advanced planning and optimization(APO), the standard business processes suggest that the materials planner should first run MRP in the SAP ERP system for nonessential materials, while critical materials are planned in the APO component known as production planning (PP). Simple Logistics uses the capabilities of PP/DS to suggest realistic and workable production or procurement proposals that materials planners can use immediately.
BUSINESS BENEFITS OF SAP S/4 HANA SIMPLE LOGISTICS (Contd.) CUSTOMER REQUIREMENT PLANNING (CRP): In the SAP ERP system, CRP was limited to information about capacity evaluation and capacity leveling, which offered little help to capacity planners who needed to decide how and when to enhance capacity to attend to production bottlenecks. SAP Simple Logistics weaves CRP with PP to provide more granular details, which greatly optimizes production.
AVAILABLE TO PROMISE (ATP): Simple Logistics combines the ATP functionality of SAP ERP and SAP APO to instantly process the information required by a sales team for end-to-end visibility of customers' orders, transportation and delivery schedules.
