  Key Concepts: 
  Safety stock planned independent requirement (SSIR) is a feature of the IS-AFS SAP Apparel and Footwear Solution that allows users to plan and manage safety stock levels for their products. SSIR helps to ensure that the right amount of safety stock is available at all times, allowing for better inventory management and improved customer service. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use SSIR, users must first define the safety stock levels for each product. This can be done manually or by using the automated planning tools available in IS-AFS. Once the safety stock levels have been set, users can monitor and adjust them as needed. The system will also alert users when the safety stock levels are low or need to be replenished. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting safety stock levels, it is important to consider the lead time for replenishing inventory as well as the expected demand for each product. It is also important to keep an eye on inventory levels and adjust safety stock levels accordingly.
