Script Repository

Script documentation provides access to a centralized repository of scripts and corresponding user guides in the M3 Demand Planner Help menu. Script Repository is available in Menu > Help > Script Guides.

This repository replaces earlier documentation that was primarily delivered through example scripts in template solutions, making script-related information easier to find and use within the application.

Script Repository gives an overview of available scripts, while the user guides describe the purpose, configuration, and usage of each business process script.

This table shows the available user guides:

Guide Description
ABC for Item Classification UserGuide Provides configuration examples and explains how to use the ABC and Double ABC classification script.
MaterialPlan UserGuide Describes material planning in DMP by converting finished product demand into raw material demand, also referred to as dependent demand calculation or Bill of Materials (BOM) explosion.
Set Safety Stock MMS200MI UserGuide Describes how safety stock is calculated and how the results are transferred back to M3 Business Engine using an API in batch processing.
Simulate Supply V8 UserGuide Describes a consolidated script that combines earlier versions into a single solution. The script performs a simplified Material Requirements Planning (MRP) simulation directly in the DMP grid or through a workflow.

The repository and user guides support efficient understanding, configuration, and execution of business process scripts in M3.
