You can use this component to integrate the SAP Manufacturing Execution (SAP ME) system directly into your existing SAP ERP application, giving manufacturing staff a clear overview of production operations and improving analytical capability for the management team.
SAP ERP is the system of record for master data and SAP ME is the system of record for all WIP data.
Note that you can create a routing in SAP ME and transfer it to SAP ERP (see Transfer of Routing from SAP ME to SAP ERP).
