The plant is an operating area or branch within a company.
The plant is embedded in the organizational structure as follows:
• The plant is assigned to a single company code. A company code can have several plants.
• Several storage locations in which material stocks are managed can belong to a plant.
• A plant can be assigned to several combinations of sales organization and distribution channel.
• A plant can have several shipping points. A shipping point can be assigned to several plants.

• A plant has its own material master data. You can maintain data at plant level for the following views on a material master record in particular: MRP, Purchasing, Storage, Work scheduling, Production resources/tools, Forecasting, Quality management, Sales, Costing.
The plant plays an important role in the following areas:
• material valuation
If the valuation level is the plant, the material stocks are valuated at plant level. If the valuation level is the plant, you can define the material prices for each plant. Each plant can have its own account determination.

Recommendation
Plant 0001 is already preset in all dependent tables. SAP recommends that you change only the attributes and not this number. For further settings, this enables you to access the sample entries, considerably reducing the time required for maintenance.

Activities
1. Create your plants and their respective local data, referring closely to the reference (plant 0001) provided by SAP.
2. You can also copy, delete or check environment data.
