A plant is an organizational unit in SAP that represents a physical facility such as a factory, warehouse, or distribution center.
Data Model
Additional Info & Comments
Multiple plants may be involved in the production and sale of a specific product to a specific customer. There can be differences between the delivering plant (aka shipping plant) and production plant.
Plants with multiple production steps may have multiple production plants as different intermediates may be produced in different plants before the final production step.
For some exceptional flows, plants may be "virtual" in the sense that they do not represent a specific physical location but rather refer to a subcontractor or specific legal entity (e.g. import / export flows).
