• Key Concepts: 
  A fair share situation in SAP Supply Network Planning (SNP) is a situation where the available supply of a product is not enough to meet the demand. This can occur when the demand for a product exceeds the available supply, or when the supply of a product is not evenly distributed among customers. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to address a fair share situation, users must first identify the source of the problem. This can be done by analyzing the supply and demand data in SNP. Once the source of the problem has been identified, users can then use SNP’s optimization tools to adjust the supply and demand data in order to create a more balanced situation. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When dealing with a fair share situation, it is important to consider all possible solutions before making any changes. This includes looking at alternative sources of supply, adjusting customer orders, and using SNP’s optimization tools. Additionally, it is important to consider any potential impacts that changes may have on other areas of the supply chain.
