  Key Concepts: 
  Prioritization of deployment stock transfers is a feature of SAP Supply Network Planning (SNP) that allows users to prioritize the order in which stock transfers are deployed. This helps to ensure that the most important transfers are completed first, while allowing for flexibility in the order of other transfers. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Prioritization of deployment stock transfers can be enabled by setting the priority level for each transfer. The priority level can be set to either high, medium, or low. High priority transfers will be deployed first, followed by medium priority transfers, and then low priority transfers. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting the priority level for a transfer, consider the importance of the transfer and how quickly it needs to be completed. For example, if a transfer is needed urgently, it should be set to high priority.
