custom sequencing of sort attribute values - Details

• 
  Key Concepts: 
  Custom sequencing of sort attribute values is a feature in SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) Inventory and Planning (IBP) Replenishment Modeling (RM) component. It allows users to define a custom sequence for sorting attribute values, such as product categories, in order to prioritize certain values over others. This feature is useful for creating a more efficient replenishment process. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the custom sequencing of sort attribute values feature, users must first define the custom sequence in the IBP RM configuration. This can be done by selecting the “Custom Sequence” option from the Sort Attribute drop-down menu. Once the custom sequence has been defined, users can then select the desired attribute values from the list and assign them a priority level. The higher the priority level, the higher the value will be placed in the sorting order. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a custom sequence for sort attribute values, it is important to consider how each value will affect the replenishment process. For example, if certain product categories are more important than others, they should be given a higher priority level so that they are sorted first. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that any changes made to the custom sequence will need to be saved in order for them to take effect.
