SAP MM IM with industrial Engineering.?
I did my master's in Industrial Engineering and got myself placed as a beginner in SAP MM/IM field. I filed for my visa but in USCIS they put a query stating how my Master's degree is related to SAP MM/IM field. They think that SAP is related to computer programming.
In Industrial Engineering, I studied about logistics, inventory, production planning and supply chain management. In MM I configure those things on SAP. I also have diplamo in C, C++ from an Institute which is affiliated to UK cambridge University. So please guide me how to prepare the letter.

Inventory Management is part of the Materials Management module and is fully integrated in the entire logistics system:
Material is procured from external or internal sources on the basis of the requirements determined by Material Requirements Planning. The delivery is entered in Inventory Management as a goods receipt. The material is stored (and managed under Inventory Management) until it is delivered to customers (Sales & Distribution), or is used for internal purposes (for example, for production).
During all transactions, Inventory Management accesses both master data (such as material master data) and transaction data (such as purchasing documents) shared by all Logistics components.
Features
Integration in Materials Management
As a component of Materials Management, Inventory Management is directly linked with Material Requirements Planning, Purchasing, and Invoice Verification.
Inventory Management provides information for MRP, which takes into account not only physical stocks but also planned movements (requirements, receipts).
When a material is ordered from a vendor, Inventory Management posts the delivery as a goods receipt with reference to the purchase order. The vendor invoice is processed later by Invoice Verification. Here, the quantities and values from the purchase order and the goods receipt document are checked to ensure that they match those in the invoice.
Integration in Production Planning
Inventory Management is closely linked to the Production Planning module:
Inventory Management is responsible for staging of the components required for production orders
The receipt of the finished products in the warehouse is posted in Inventory Management.
Integration in Sales & Distribution
As soon as you enter a sales order, you can initiate a dynamic availability check of stocks on hand.
When the delivery is created, the quantity to be delivered is marked as "Scheduled for delivery". It is deducted from the total stock when the goods issue is posted.
It is also possible to create sales order stocks.
Integration in Quality Management
In the case of a goods movement, the system determines whether the material is subject to an inspection operation. If so, a corresponding activity is initiated for the movement in the Quality Management system.
Integration in Plant Maintenance
Inventory Management is linked with Plant Maintenance as follows:
It is possible to post goods movements with reference to equipment BOMs.
It is possible to withdraw parts for maintenance orders.
When serial number management is active, the individual serial numbers are entered in the case of every goods movement. Serial numbers are managed in the Plant Maintenance system.
Integration in the Logistics Information System
With the Inventory Controlling component, the Logistics Information System offers a tool for collecting, compressing, and evaluating inventory management data.
