Media Product Sales and Distribution (M/PS) 

SAP for Media Media Product Sales and Distribution (MPS) is the solution for sales and distribution at publishers and wholesalers. It supports the single sale processes for media products to retailers in your source system.

The solution for Media Product Sales and Distribution is based on standard SAP functions for sales and distribution in the mySAP CRM und mySAP SCM solutions.

Media-specific planning functions can be used to make the data available for logistics processing. Planning covers the following activities:

·        Planning for the business partner (such as factory calendar, vacation times at the sales point etc.)

·        Product planning (media issues to be delivered for each media product, any division of the media product into a product kit, assignment of media products to geographical areas).

·        Plan customer/product assignment in contracts

·        Quantity planning for each media issue and customer

·        Insert planning for each media issue and customer

Media-specific planning is completed with the generation of sales orders using the planning data. Each sales order contains all information required to ship the planned quantity of a media issue (such as a newspaper for a publication date) for the respective customer.

Configured business content for evaluating master and transaction data is available to you in the Media Product Sales and Distribution (M/PS) InfoArea of the SAP Business Information Warehouse. The analysis results can be used to optimize control of your logistical processes.
