Abstract

Inventory management is a process in the management of goods or material inventory in a company to ensure the amount of inventory. SAP has an ERP basis within it, making ERP the foundation for monitoring every material transaction. Based on these points, this research aims to understand the implementation procedure of inventory management using SAP and its working process, as well as provide knowledge regarding the implementation of inventory management in a geothermal power plant company. The research uses a qualitative methodology through interview and field observation techniques. Inventory management and SAP are two highly synergized elements implemented in the company's warehouse division. The implementation of inventory management, such as receipt, storage, issuance, and stock-taking of materials, follows a clear and sequential flow, which provides convenience for the employees. Synchronization between SAP and actual data is carried out through several T-Codes (Transaction Codes), which serve as the gateway for each part of inventory management. SAP becomes an integrated system across the company's departments, making information more transparent. This facilitates transactions by automatically updating the data in real-time.
