Advanced BOM Analytics – Supplier to Customer

Advanced BOM Analytics – Supplier to Customer (ABASC)

Transparency across product structures – from suppliers to customers and back

In SAP systems, information on bills of material, materials, suppliers, customers, stocks and requirements is distributed across numerous standard transactions.
A consistent, context-rich view across product structures is missing – especially for complex, multi-level BOMs and cross-plant scenarios.

PREISS Consulting Advanced BOM Analytics – Supplier to Customer (ABASC) is an SAP add-on for manufacturing companies that consolidates this information into integrated, mass-capable evaluations.

ABASC combines:

• Bills of material (top-down and bottom-up)
• Material masters and dependent objects
• Suppliers and sources of supply
• Customers and sales context
• Stocks, requirements and consumption

into a single, consistent view within the SAP system.
