SAP Task & Resource Management

SAP task and resource management (SAP TRM) strengthens and completes the SAP ERP WM solution by optimising material flows via task execution and resource deployment. TRM breaks down material movements to a task and resource level and optimises the sequence in which they are executed, ensuring that the right task is completed by the best resource at the most optimal time.

TRM helps you to manage your warehouse processes more efficiently because it achieves an unparalleled degree of process visibility within the system by tracking any activity performed on the warehouse floor. TRM uses a systemic model of the warehouse's physical layout to deploy resources according to the actual workload, the resource's qualifications and the current geographic positions of the resources. The efficient deployment of resources contributes to a considerable reduction of costs in material flow processing.

SAP ERP WM and TRM are closely integrated and work hand-in-hand to manage and maintain the workload in warehouses. SAP ERP WM provides the movement, operation demands, high-level scheduling and planning, while TRM distributes the work among the various resources.

Catalyst can help you get the most from SAP TRM by using it optimise supply chain management processes, improve customer and partner relations and provide cost savings.
