   Interactive planning is a feature of SAP's Demand Planning component of the Supply Chain Management (SCM) suite. It enables users to create and manage plans for demand and supply in a collaborative environment. The interactive planning process allows users to quickly and easily adjust plans based on changing market conditions, customer needs, and other factors. 
  
  How to use it: 
   To use interactive planning, users must first define the parameters of their plan. This includes setting up the time frame, defining the target market, and setting up the supply chain network. Once these parameters are set, users can begin to create their plan. They can add new items, adjust existing items, and delete items as needed. The interactive planning process also allows users to view the impact of their changes in real-time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
   When creating an interactive plan, it is important to consider the impact of any changes on the entire supply chain network. This includes considering how changes may affect suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any changes made during the planning process so that they can be easily reversed if needed.
