- Actual customer orders
- Dependent demand for
components of manufactured items
Enterprise Planning supports logistic planning at various levels of detail in
terms of: - Time (from plan periods
to seconds)
- Product level (from
product families to individual products)
- Degree of explosion of
requirements (from a wide range of components and/or work centers to a limited
number of critical components and/or work centers).
Sourcing Enterprise Planning supports three sources of supply: - Production
- Purchase
- Distribution (within
your company, or between your company and an affiliated company)

divide the required supply for an item over several sources and several
suppliers. Planning Methods Enterprise Planning offers two basic planning concepts: You can also combine these methods for one item. For
production planning, Enterprise Planning supports: - Infinite master

- Workload control (WLC): a
constraint-based master-planning method

planning alternatives. When you are satisfied with the planning solution in the actual scenario, you can
