S/4HANA Production Planning Practice Exams

The SAP Certified Associate — SAP S/4HANA Production Planning certification validates the core knowledge required to implement and support PP in SAP S/4HANA. The exam covers organizational structure and master data (plants, work centers, bills of materials, and routings), demand management and material requirements planning (planning strategies, the MRP run, and planned orders), production order processing (order creation, release, confirmation, and goods movements), repetitive manufacturing and Kanban (run schedule quantities, backflushing, and Kanban control cycles), and capacity planning and integration (capacity evaluation/leveling and integration with MM, SD, CO, and QM). The exam has 80 questions in 180 minutes, and SAP recommends hands-on project experience with SAP S/4HANA PP before attempting it.
