• Key Concepts: 
  A trigger is an event that causes a specific action to occur in the SAP Planning Service Manager (PSM) component of the Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. Triggers can be used to initiate a process, such as creating a new plan or updating an existing one. They can also be used to monitor the status of a plan and take corrective action if necessary.
  
  How to use it: 
  Triggers are configured in the PSM component of the SCM module. The trigger can be set up to monitor a specific plan or process, and when certain conditions are met, the trigger will initiate the specified action. For example, if a plan is overdue, the trigger can be set up to send an alert or initiate a corrective action.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When configuring triggers, it is important to consider the conditions that must be met for the trigger to be activated. It is also important to consider what action should be taken when the trigger is activated. This will ensure that the trigger is effective and does not cause any unnecessary disruption or delays in the process.
