• Key Concepts: 
  Maximum production quantity is a feature of SAP Lean Planning and Operations (SAP LPO) that allows users to set a maximum production quantity for a given item. This helps to ensure that the production process is not over-producing, which can lead to excess inventory and other inefficiencies. The maximum production quantity can be set for each item individually, or it can be set for an entire production line. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set the maximum production quantity for an item, users must first access the SAP LPO system. Once in the system, they can select the item they wish to set the maximum production quantity for. Then, they can enter the desired maximum production quantity into the system. The system will then automatically adjust the production process to ensure that the maximum production quantity is not exceeded. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting the maximum production quantity, it is important to consider the demand for the item. If demand is high, it may be necessary to increase the maximum production quantity in order to meet customer needs. On the other hand, if demand is low, it may be beneficial to reduce the maximum production quantity in order to avoid over-producing and creating excess inventory.
