• Key Concepts: 
  Deployment horizon is a term used in the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is the time period in which a production plan is valid and can be used to determine the availability of resources for production. The deployment horizon is typically set to a certain number of days, weeks, or months. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The deployment horizon can be set in the PPS component of SAP SCM. This setting will determine the length of time that a production plan is valid and can be used to determine the availability of resources for production. The deployment horizon can be adjusted as needed to ensure that the production plan remains valid and up-to-date. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to keep the deployment horizon up-to-date in order to ensure that the production plan remains valid and accurate. If the deployment horizon is not updated regularly, it may lead to inaccurate production plans and resource availability issues. 
  
  Related Information: 
  The deployment horizon is closely related to other concepts such as capacity planning, resource planning, and material requirements planning (MRP). All of these concepts are important for ensuring that production plans are accurate and resources are available when needed.
