Businesses don&#8217;t always realize how quickly these costs add up: storage, insurance, damage, obsolescence, and blocked capital. Even though they had good sales, I&#8217;ve seen companies have trouble with cash flow because they didn&#8217;t keep track of their inventory.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"700\" data-end=\"762\">This is where<a href=\"https:\/\/gtracademy.org\/sap-mm-s-4-hana-training-online-with-certificate\/\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"> <strong data-start=\"714\" data-end=\"747\">SAP MM <\/strong><\/span><\/a>(Materials Management) really shines.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"764\" data-end=\"1031\">In this blog, we&#8217;ll look at how businesses actually use SAP MM every day to lower the costs of holding inventory, not just in theory.
