Course Overview
The Production Planning with SAP S/4HANA PP/DS course by SAP is designed for professionals aiming to master advanced production planning and detailed scheduling within the SAP S/4HANA environment. This course specifically prepares participants for the SAP Certified Associate - SAP S/4HANA Production Planning and Manufacturing (C_TS422) certification exam, equipping application consultants, business process architects, and manufacturing solution leads with essential skills. Targeted at those involved in production planning processes, it covers core functionalities such as net requirements calculation, pegging, source determination, and finite capacity scheduling using embedded PP/DS. With over 70% of global manufacturers leveraging SAP S/4HANA for digital transformation, expertise in this domain is critical, particularly as companies migrate from legacy ERP systems to adopt real-time planning capabilities.
Participants engage with key SAP technologies including the Detailed Scheduling Planning Board, PP/DS Optimizer, Setup Matrix, Strategy Profiles, and MRP Live, all accessed through the SAP GUI frontend in a hands-on lab environment based on SAP S/4HANA OP 2023. During the labs, learners configure production data structures (PDS), execute multistep planning runs, and manage constraint-based scheduling scenarios using real-world datasets like Global Bike Inc. A central project involves setting up and running a detailed scheduling sequence that integrates material requirements, resource constraints, and setup times to optimize production timelines. These exercises are conducted in an SAP Learning Hub-enabled environment, allowing trainees to gain practical experience in configuring finite scheduling logic, managing alerts, and applying heuristics for realistic shop floor planning outcomes.
This training directly supports career advancement toward roles such as SAP PP/DS Consultant or Manufacturing Solution Architect, positions that command average salaries between $120,000 and $200,000 annually in the U.S. and ₹20–40 lakhs in India. As the SAP Certified Associate credential is globally recognized and aligned with industry best practices, it validates a professional’s ability to implement modern planning solutions in S/4HANA environments. Koenig Solutions enhances learning with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official SAP courseware, and access to expert instructors for personalized guidance. Completing the S4224 course empowers learners to lead digital manufacturing initiatives, driving efficiency and innovation in smart factories of the future.
