• Key Concepts: 
  Demand Fair Share is a feature of SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) for Response and Supply. It allows users to allocate demand across multiple supply sources in order to ensure that each source receives its fair share of the total demand. This helps to ensure that all sources are utilized efficiently and that no single source is overburdened. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Demand Fair Share can be used to allocate demand across multiple supply sources. The user can specify the desired allocation percentage for each source, and the system will automatically adjust the demand accordingly. The user can also specify a minimum and maximum allocation percentage for each source, which will be enforced by the system. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using Demand Fair Share, it is important to consider the impact of the allocations on each supply source. If one source is allocated too much demand, it may become overburdened and unable to meet its commitments. On the other hand, if one source is allocated too little demand, it may not be utilized efficiently.
