Planning Runs - Details

• 
  Key Concepts: 
  Planning Runs are a feature of SAP Supply Chain Planning and Control (SRD-SCM-SCP) that allow users to plan and optimize their supply chain operations. Planning Runs are used to create a plan for the future, based on current and historical data. The plan is then used to make decisions about production, inventory, and other supply chain activities. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Planning Runs can be used to create a plan for the future by analyzing current and historical data. The user can define the parameters of the run, such as the time period, the type of planning (e.g. demand planning, inventory planning, etc.), and the level of detail. Once the parameters are set, the user can run the Planning Run to generate a plan for the future. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a Planning Run, it is important to consider the time period that will be used for the run. The time period should be long enough to capture all relevant data, but not so long that it becomes outdated. Additionally, it is important to consider the level of detail that will be used in the run; too much detail can lead to an overly complex plan, while too little detail can lead to an inaccurate plan.
