SAP PP (Production Planning) is the SAP module that decides what a factory should make, when and with which resources, and then tracks the actual production. It turns sales demand and forecasts into a production plan, checks material availability through MRP, schedules work centres, releases production orders to the shop floor and records what was produced and consumed.
PP is used wherever physical products are manufactured: automotive parts, FMCG, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, electronics and heavy engineering. It connects closely with materials management (for components), quality management (for inspections) and controlling (for production costs), so PP consultants tend to understand the whole plant, not just one process.

Diploma holders and engineering graduates who want to move from the shop floor to SAP roles
Production planners, schedulers and supply-chain staff who already use SAP
SAP PP end users who want to understand configuration, not just transactions
Manufacturing professionals planning a switch to ERP consulting
No coding is needed. A basic understanding of how factories plan and make products is the most useful background.

Engineers with plant experience often progress quickly because they already understand the processes the system models. If you are torn between procurement and production, read our SAP MM vs SAP PP comparison, then see open SAP PP batches.
Yes, it is one of the most natural SAP paths for engineers. Your knowledge of BOMs, routings, capacity and shop-floor constraints maps directly onto PP configuration, and manufacturing companies value consultants who understand plants. SAP PP training for manufacturing professionals builds on that background with hands-on S/4HANA work.
ZebLearn lists the SAP PP course at ₹30,000, with EMI options, against a struck-through ₹1,20,000. The SAP C_TS422 exam fee is separate and paid to SAP. Confirm the live price before enrolling.
No. PP can be learned on its own, and the course covers the integration points with MM. That said, MRP creates purchase requisitions and production consumes stock, so an understanding of MM basics helps in real projects. Our SAP MM course guide gives a quick overview.
Yes. The certification the course targets, C_TS422, is an SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition exam, and the career roles ZebLearn lists include S/4HANA manufacturing consultant. Core PP concepts such as BOMs, routings, MRP and production orders carry over from ECC to S/4HANA.
The page body gives 8 weeks of two-hour live classes, while the site menu shows 9 weeks; we use the page-body figure. Weekday and weekend batches are available, and recordings let you revise. Current start dates are on https://zeblearn.com/sap-course/pp-training-certification.
