• Key Concepts: 
  The master scheduler is a component of SAP Supply Chain Planning and Control (SCM-SCP). It is a tool used to create and manage production plans and schedules. It helps to optimize the production process by taking into account the availability of resources, customer demand, and other factors. The master scheduler can be used to create a single plan for multiple production sites or multiple plans for different sites. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The master scheduler can be used to create a production plan by entering the desired production quantity, the desired delivery date, and the available resources. The master scheduler will then generate a plan that takes into account all of these factors. The plan can then be adjusted as needed to meet customer demand or other constraints. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the master scheduler, it is important to consider the availability of resources and customer demand when creating a plan. It is also important to consider any constraints that may affect the production process, such as lead times or capacity limitations.
