Abstract

One of the types of production employed at metallurgical plants is serial production. Serial production is applied for products that have steady demand, are homogeneous and can be delivered to more customers. This type of production is commonly referred to as "warehouse manufacturing", where the business further addresses the allocation of available quantities between existing sales orders. This article describes the specifics of metallurgical serial production and methods that can be used to control it. Additionally, it proposes the possibilities of automating this process using the S/4 HANA version of a modern SAP information system.

Keywords: Planning in Serial Production; SAP S/4 HANA; Stochastic Dynamic Models
