• Key Concepts: 
  Stability rule is a feature of SAP SCM-APO-SPP Service Parts Planning that helps to ensure that the supply chain remains stable and predictable. It works by setting a minimum and maximum order quantity for each item in the supply chain, which helps to prevent over- or under-ordering of parts. This helps to ensure that the supply chain remains balanced and efficient. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The stability rule can be set up in the SAP SCM-APO-SPP Service Parts Planning module. To do this, you will need to enter the minimum and maximum order quantities for each item in the supply chain. Once these values have been entered, the system will automatically adjust the order quantities to ensure that they remain within the specified range. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to set realistic minimum and maximum order quantities for each item in the supply chain. If these values are too low or too high, it could lead to over- or under-ordering of parts, which could disrupt the supply chain. It is also important to regularly review and adjust these values as needed, as changes in demand or other factors may require different order quantities.
