  Operation is a term used in the MFG-DM-ME Digital Manufacturing Execution component of SAP. It is a unit of work that is performed on a product or material during the manufacturing process. It can include activities such as assembly, inspection, testing, and packaging. Operations are typically organized into a sequence of steps that must be completed in order to produce a finished product.

  In SAP, operations are defined in the system and assigned to production orders. This allows for the tracking of each step in the manufacturing process and provides visibility into the progress of each order. Operations can also be used to define standard times for each step in the process, which can be used to calculate expected completion times for orders.

  When defining operations in SAP, it is important to ensure that all necessary steps are included and that they are organized in the correct sequence. This will help ensure that all necessary steps are completed and that orders are completed on time.
