How to use this

Preparing for a SAP MM interview

Interviewers for fresher and early-career roles test fundamentals and whether you have used the system. Understand each answer instead of memorising it, and be ready to describe how you would do the task in SAP. If you have not practised yet, say so honestly and explain what you have learned.

Questions

10 SAP MM questions with answers

  1. Describe the procure-to-pay cycle.
    A purchase requisition becomes a purchase order, goods are received (goods receipt), the vendor invoice is verified (invoice verification), and the vendor is paid through finance.
  2. What are movement types? Name some.
    Movement types classify inventory movements and determine the accounting. Common ones are 101 (goods receipt for a purchase order), 102 (reversal of 101), 122 (return to vendor), 201 (issue to a cost centre), 261 (issue to a production order) and 301 (plant to plant transfer).
  3. What is a valuation class?
    A field in the material master that links the material to general ledger accounts through automatic account determination, together with the movement type and transaction key.
  4. What is the difference between moving average price and standard price?
    With standard price (S), the material is valued at a fixed price and differences go to price difference accounts. With moving average price (V), the price is recalculated with each goods receipt or invoice.
  5. What is an info record?
    A vendor-material info record stores the relationship between a vendor and a material, such as price, delivery time and conditions, and is used as a source for purchase orders.
  6. What is a source list and a quota arrangement?
    A source list defines which vendors may supply a material for a plant. A quota arrangement splits requirements among several sources by percentage.
  7. What is a release strategy?
    An approval procedure for purchase requisitions or purchase orders, configured using release groups, codes, indicators and strategies, which blocks a document until the required approvers release it.
  8. What is special stock? Give examples.
    Stock that is handled separately from normal company-owned stock, such as consignment stock (owned by the vendor), subcontracting stock and project stock.
  9. What is the three-way match in invoice verification?
    The system compares the purchase order, goods receipt and vendor invoice, and applies tolerances to quantity and price differences before the invoice can be posted.
  10. What is GR/IR?
    A clearing account between goods receipt and invoice receipt. The goods receipt credits it and the invoice debits it, so open items show receipts or invoices that have not yet been matched.
