• Key Concepts: 
  Flexible bill of distribution (FBD) is a feature of SAP SCM-APO-SPP Service Parts Planning that allows users to define and manage the distribution of parts and components across multiple locations. It enables users to define the quantity of parts and components that should be distributed to each location, as well as the order in which they should be distributed. This helps to ensure that parts and components are available when and where they are needed.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use FBD, users must first define the locations where parts and components will be distributed. This can be done by creating a “distribution network” in SAP SCM-APO-SPP Service Parts Planning. Once the distribution network is created, users can then define the quantity of parts and components that should be distributed to each location, as well as the order in which they should be distributed. This information can then be used to generate a “bill of distribution” which can be used to track the distribution of parts and components across multiple locations.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using FBD, it is important to ensure that the quantity of parts and components being distributed is sufficient for each location. It is also important to ensure that the order in which parts and components are distributed is optimized for efficiency. Additionally, it is important to regularly review the bill of distribution to ensure that it is up-to-date and accurate.
