SAP Term: exception priority


Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    Exception priority is a feature in SAP Supply Chain Planning and Control (SCM-SCP) that allows users to prioritize exceptions in the system. Exceptions are defined as any deviation from the planned order or supply chain process. Exception priority helps users to quickly identify and address the most important exceptions first. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use exception priority, users must first define the criteria for what constitutes an exception. This can include things like delivery delays, stock shortages, or incorrect orders. Once the criteria is set, users can assign a priority level to each exception. This can range from low to high, depending on the severity of the issue. The system will then prioritize exceptions based on their assigned priority level. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When assigning priority levels to exceptions, it is important to consider the impact of each issue on the overall supply chain process. For example, a delivery delay may have a higher priority than an incorrect order if it has a greater impact on the process. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update exception priorities as needed. 
    
    Related Information: 
    Exception priority is just one of many features available in SAP SCM-SCP. Other features include demand planning, inventory optimization, and supply chain analytics. All of these features work together to help users manage their supply chain processes more efficiently and effectively.
