This comprehensive reference shows you how to best use the cross-company modules APO-DP and APO-SNP in your supply chain, for a wide variety of tasks such as carrying out accurate forecasts and optimally utilizing the means of transport.

A general overview of planning tasks in SAP APO is followed by a detailed description of the functions and use of demand planning (DP), which is intended to provide answers to the following questions: How can you create accurate forecasts on the basis of historical data? How can these forecasts be used to optimize the planning process? Readers also benefit from in-depth coverage of the functions of inventory and distribution resource planning (SNP). Learn how to increase customer satisfaction, improve your inventory planning, optimize the utilization of transport methods, and much more. Customization and master data parameters are explored in detail.

In addition, integration with mySAP ERP and the system architecture are discussed as well. The book concludes by presenting readers with a complete end-to-end implementation plan.
