SAP - Oil & Gas RLM

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am new to SAP. I came from SCM background. I have some knowledge on APO-DP/SNP. I am thinking to move to Oil & Gas and I believe RLM is close for me.

I wonder how RLM module is doing in the market. How are the implementations for this module.

Can somebody throw some light on this?

Thanks In Advance

Hi Girish,

RLM is a good module to start for IS-OIL , its prerequisites are

 LO140 Processes in Logistics Execution

 LO100 Basic Function in Plant Management

 LO020 Material Management Purchasing .

RLM is increasing its scope day by day and attracting upstream

companies , there are 10 plus active users (oil companies ) of RLM ..

It is a standalone module and has to be purchased separately …

RLM deals with the supply and replenishment NON-oil materials..

Please let me know if you want more info ..

Hi Oily,

Thanks for your reply. Can you please tell me where I can find the documentation for the below mentioned processes. Is it available at http://help.sap.com ? I am able to find the documentation for RLM, but not for the below mentioned Processes.

Can you please throw some light on these processes.

Along with RLM is it good to have Secondary Distribution for Downstream ? What is the best way to get trained on this module?

Thanks In Advance

Hi Girish,

i think the best way to get in to this module by knowing some of the business process, such as Exchange business flow, Stock transport order, delivery process, packaging, Cross docking etc.

you can find the link

OGSD Oil and Gas seconday distribution is also good to know, along with the RLM

As per the training is concerned there are much to go through if you know the above mentioned business process you can do the configuration.

hope this may be useful
