Multi Method Supply Planning in SAP Apo - Paperback

by Shaun Snapp (Author)

Which supply planning method meets your company's business requirements? The answer might surprise you! Here's the truth: There is no one right supply planning method for all situations, even within one company! In fact, it is unnecessary to choose only one method, and using multiple supply planning methods is feasible and in most cases, has many advantages over using a single method. This book explains why no one supply planning method meets all requirements, and lists the many benefits of using multiple supply planning methods. It gives practical advice about selecting supply planning methods and method modifiers, and goes deep into the "how to" of implementing mixed methods. By reading this book you will: -Understand the supply planning methods available within SAP SNP. -Separate the sales rhetoric from the truth when making software purchasing decisions. -Discover prototypes and the benefits of testing supply planning methods prior to implementation. -Explore the information and human challenges of combining multiple supply planning methods. -Make multiple supply planning methods work together in either one or multiple software applications. Drawing upon his own vast experience as an implementation consultant, and through extensive use of graphics and screen images from SAP SNP and other software, Shaun Snapp empowers you to choose supply planning methods with confidence and to successfully integrate multiple methods in one or more applications.
