What is probable degree of confidence in SAP MM-IM - Inventory Management?

SAP Term: probable degree of confidence

• Component: MM-IM

• Component Name: Inventory Management

• Description: The degree of probability with which the result of an extrapolation can be considered reliable. In combination with the relative statistical error, the probable degree of confidence is a criterion for assessing the success of a sample-based physical inventory. When a sample-based physical inventory is set up, a probable degree of confidence and a relative statistical error are specified. Provided that certain other criteria are also satisfied, a sample-based physical inventory is deemed successful if it can be claimed - with the probable degree of confidence specified - that the difference between the estimated value and the actual unknown value is less than the relative statistical error defined.
