• Key Concepts: 
  Order Proposal Management is a component of SAP SCM-FRE Forecasting and Replenishment. It is used to create and manage order proposals for replenishment of materials in a supply chain. The order proposals are based on the forecasted demand for materials and the current inventory levels. The order proposals are then used to generate purchase orders or production orders for replenishment of materials. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Order Proposal Management can be used to create and manage order proposals for replenishment of materials in a supply chain. The user can define the criteria for creating the order proposals, such as the forecasted demand, current inventory levels, and other parameters. The user can also define the rules for generating purchase orders or production orders from the order proposals. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating order proposals, it is important to consider the lead time for replenishing materials. This will ensure that the order proposals are created in time to meet the forecasted demand. It is also important to consider any constraints on production or purchasing that may affect the ability to fulfill the order proposals.
