• Key Concepts: 
  Production resource/tool (PRT) is a component of SAP Production Planning and Control (PP) that enables the planning and control of production resources and tools. It allows for the definition of production resources and tools, their characteristics, and their availability. It also provides the ability to plan and control the use of these resources and tools in production orders. 
  
  How to Use it: 
  In order to use PRT, you must first define the production resources and tools that will be used in your production process. This includes defining their characteristics, such as capacity, availability, and cost. Once these have been defined, you can then use PRT to plan and control the use of these resources and tools in production orders. This includes assigning them to specific orders, tracking their usage, and monitoring their availability. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining production resources and tools in PRT, it is important to ensure that they are accurately defined in order to ensure accurate planning and control. Additionally, it is important to regularly monitor the availability of these resources and tools in order to ensure that they are available when needed.
