• Key Concepts: 
  Sequencing is a feature of the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is used to determine the order in which production orders should be processed in order to optimize production efficiency. Sequencing helps to ensure that production orders are completed in the most efficient way possible, taking into account factors such as available resources, lead times, and customer demand. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Sequencing can be used to determine the order in which production orders should be processed. This can be done manually or automatically, depending on the user's preference. When sequencing manually, users can specify the order in which production orders should be processed. When sequencing automatically, users can specify criteria such as available resources, lead times, and customer demand, and the system will automatically determine the optimal order for processing production orders. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When sequencing manually, it is important to consider all relevant factors such as available resources, lead times, and customer demand. This will help ensure that production orders are completed in the most efficient way possible. Additionally, when sequencing automatically, users should ensure that they have specified all relevant criteria so that the system can accurately determine the optimal order for processing production orders.
