• Key Concepts: 
  Single-level supply and demand mapping is a feature of SAP Supply Network Planning (SNP) that allows users to map supply and demand at a single level. This means that the user can view the entire supply chain from a single point of view, allowing them to make better decisions about how to manage their supply chain. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Single-level supply and demand mapping can be used to identify potential problems in the supply chain, such as overstocking or understocking of materials. It can also be used to identify opportunities for cost savings or increased efficiency. To use this feature, users must first define the supply and demand levels they want to map. They can then use the SNP planning board to view the entire supply chain from a single point of view. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using single-level supply and demand mapping, it is important to remember that it is only as accurate as the data that is entered into the system. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all data is accurate and up-to-date before using this feature. Additionally, it is important to remember that this feature only provides a snapshot of the current state of the supply chain; it does not provide any insight into future trends or changes in demand.
