• Key Concepts: 
  Material tree is a feature of SAP's Material Requirements Planning (MRP) component. It is a graphical representation of the material structure of a product, showing the components and sub-components that make up the product. It also shows the relationships between the components and sub-components, such as which components are dependent on each other. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The material tree can be used to plan and manage the production process. It can be used to identify which components are needed for a particular product, and to determine how much of each component is required. It can also be used to track the progress of production, as well as to identify any potential problems or delays in the production process. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a material tree, it is important to ensure that all components and sub-components are accurately represented. This will help to ensure that the production process runs smoothly and efficiently. Additionally, it is important to keep the material tree up-to-date, as changes in the production process may require changes in the material tree.
