Spare parts in SAP
The correct use of IT tools allows companies to structure their processes in a transparent way. The registration of data and activities within maintenance has become indispensable for carrying out analyses and optimisations.
In many companies, SAP is the most widely used ERP software in the entire organisation, including the maintenance department. SAP is an integrated package that unites the different departments of a company in a seamless way. This package also offers many possibilities for the Maintenance department. Unfortunately, this often goes unused.
These training sessions give the staff of a maintenance department the opportunity to further exploit the possibilities of SAP in this area by explaining the different functionalities of SAP and by providing practical tips to make working with this software easier.
On the one hand, the classic SAP system is demonstrated, but also its latest innovations and technologies (S/4 Hana). This training can be followed regardless of the SAP version that is implemented in the company. It is also available when specific functions are only available for certain versions.
This training is also very useful for anyone who has to use SAP to better understand all the possibilities.
