  Key Concepts: 
  Frozen Horizon is a feature of SAP Lean Planning and Operations (SAP LPO) that allows users to freeze the planning horizon for a certain period of time. This means that the system will not take into account any changes in demand or supply during this period, allowing users to plan more accurately and efficiently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the Frozen Horizon feature, users must first set up a planning horizon in the system. This can be done by setting a start date and an end date for the planning period. Once this is done, users can then select the “Freeze Horizon” option in the system. This will prevent any changes in demand or supply from being taken into account during this period. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the Frozen Horizon feature, it is important to remember that any changes in demand or supply that occur during the frozen period will not be taken into account by the system. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all relevant data is up-to-date before freezing the horizon.
