attributes from Production Source Validity.

5
Changes related to New attributes Transportation Lot Size Periods of
Coverage (TLOTSIZECOVERAGE) and Production Lot Size Periods of
Coverage (PLOTSIZECOVERAGE) for Inventory Optimization
Reason for Change:
PLOTSIZECOVERAGE is the weeks of production lot size coverage for PBR.

Changes related to removal of key figure Demand Value (node)
(NODEDEMANDVAL) from Inventory Optimization

Reason for Change: This Key Figure is not needed anymore

Delete Key Figure: NODEDEMANDVAL from Planning Area

9
Changes related to adding Change Point Detection to the Forecast
Automation Profile
Reason for Change: Change point detection functionality is now used in the IBP for demand –
time-series analysis (34Y) scope item to search for significant changes with long-term effects in
the time series. For this reason, the Forecast Automation Profile SAPIBP1 has been updated
with the rules for change point detection.

Planning Operator Type : Forecast Automation; Planning Operator ID : SAPIBP1

Setup the rules for change point detection:
- Calculation Levels = Product ID - Location ID - Customer ID - Week
- Minimum Interval Between Change Points = 6
- Minimum Level Shift (%) = 20%
- Minimum Trend Change (%) = 10%

10
Changes related to New key figure Customer Forecast
(CUSTOMERFORECAST) for customer collaboration via Web-based Planning
Reason for Change: Introduced KF CUSTOMERFORECAST to be used by customers to enter
customer forecast via Web based planning - Customer app.

12
Changes related to migrating Disaggregation Operators to new Copy
Operator Profiles
Reason for Change:
Old Disaggregate operators were migrated to the new PPF framework and removed from
SAPIBP1 model. Copy Operator Profiles are now maintained for the new Copy and
Disaggregate Key Figures operators (COP).

The following Planning Operators of type DISAGG have been unassigned from Planning Area

Copy to Global Demand (SOP) (105)

Copy to Consensus Demand (106)
Copy to Safety Stock (SOP) (107)
Copy to Consensus Dmd Final (108)
Copy to Demand Forecast (IO) (109)
Copy to Safety Stock LC (IO) (110)
Copy to Consensus Demand (FC) (116)

13
Changes related to Migrating Disaggregation operators to new Copy
Operator Profiles

New Copy Operator Profiles are created in app “Manage Copy Operator Profiles” and assigned to the
planning area

Copy to Safety Stock (SOP) (107)
Copy to Consensus Dmd Final (108)
Copy to Demand Forecast (IO) (109)
Copy to Safety Stock LC (IO) (110)
Copy to Consensus Demand (FC) (116)

14
Changes related to new key figure Demand Sensing: Weeks to Exclude from
Learning (SENSEDDEMANDEXCLUDE) for Demand Sensing
Reason for Change:
Planner knows that a certain week is exceptional somehow and would negatively impact the Demand
Sensing planning results. This KF SENSEDDEMANDEXCLUDE is used to Exclude a certain week
from the Demand Sensing learning.

Allowed values of this key figure:

• 0 / NULL: Business as usual – DS uses data
in these weeks in the learning process. No
exclusion.
• 1: Exclude from / treat as outlier in the weekly
learning process (e.g. do not learn from data
in this week for bias adjustment, open order
adjustment, and any extra demand signal
adjustment – if there are any in the forecast
model)

15
New Feature related to Partial Copy of Unified Planning Area : Option to
Copy Analytics and Alerts

When copying the unified planning area (SAPIBP1) using the create new with dependencies option,
it‘s possible to select the Copy Analytics and Alerts option to copy sample analytics and alerts.
The following content types are copied:
• Sample dashboards (12)
• Sample analytics charts (65)
• Sample supply chain network charts (2)
• Sample alert definitions (3)
• Sample alert subscriptions (9)
• Sample alert overviews (2)

16
Changes related to Supply Key Figures which are “Output for Supply Planning”
Reason for Change:
With the introduction of the new app "Settings for TS Supply Planning", the settings for supply-
related key figures were streamlined. This required to change Key Figures in Supply Planning
from "Input/Output for Supply Planning" to "Output for Supply Planning".
Note: The supply operator works with either settings. It is not required for customers who
deployed their planning area before 2002 to adjust these settings.

Change Key Figure Setting from “Input and Output for Supply Planning” to “Output for Supply
Planning” for the following Key Figures

CAPADEMAND DEPENDENTPRODUCTIONDEMAND RECEIPT

17
Changes related to Supply Key Figures: Adjusted Production Receipts
(ADJUSTEDPRODUCTION) and Production Receipts (PRODUCTION)
Reason for Change:
Key Figure PRODUCTION: application-side change required that this key figure is changed to
"Output for Supply Planning"

Change KF Settings :
ADJUSTEDPRODUCTION:
1. Switch from "Input for Supply Planning" to "Input and Output for Supply Planning"
2. Switch from "Calculated" to "Stored and Calculated“

PRODUCTION:
Switch from "Input and Output for Supply Planning" to "Output for Supply Planning"

Additional Input Key Figures

• In addition to the master data and key figures used to define the Supply Chain
Network the following key figures are used as inputs:

• Consensus demand
• Technical Name: CONSENSUSDEMAND
• Key: PRDID,CUSTID
• Customer Demand is an input key figure for supply planning. This key figure is
not changed by the planning algorithms.
• This key figure defines the requested or forecasted demand of a customer for
a certain product for each period of the planning horizon.

38
Additional Input Key Figures

• Inventory target
• Technical Name: INVENTORYTARGET
• Key: PRDID,LOCID

• This input key figure defines the target inventory for the end of each period.

• Initial inventory
• Technical Name: INITIALINVENTORY
• Key: PRDID,LOCID

• This key figure contains the available quantity of the product at the given location at the beginning of the
first period, which is the period of the current time when the planning algorithm is run.
• Relevant only for the bucket corresponding to the current time.

39
Additional Input Key Figures

• Customer sourcing ratio

• Technical Name: CUSTOMERRATIO
• Key: PRDID,CUSTID,LOCID
• This input key figure contains the quotas for sourcing customer demand for a product from various ship-from
locations.
• For instance, if a customer demand is satisfied by 40% from distribution center 1 and the remaining 60%
from distribution center 2 these ratios are defined by the customer sourcing quota.

• Location sourcing ratio

• Technical Name: LOCATIONRATIO
• Key: PRDID,LOCID,LOCFR

− This input key figure defines the quotas according to which a Net Demand for a location product should
be sourced from various locations via stock transfers.

40
Additional Input Key Figures

• Independent demand
• Technical Name: INDEPENDENTDEMAND
• Key: PRDID,LOCID

• Via the input Independent Demand key figure a user can specify an additional, anonymous demand for
location products.
• The SCM Planning Operator takes the sum of the Dependent Demand and Independent Demand to
compute the Net Demand for each location product (in each period).
• Location sourcing ratio
• Technical Name: INITIALINTRANSIT
• Key: PRDID,LOCID,LOCFR

• The start value for In Transit is specified by a new key figure ‘Initial In Transit’.
• This key figure has a value for one time period only, which is the planning period corresponding to the
current time.

41
Additional Input Key Figures

• Capacity consumption rate of production resource

• Technical Name: PCAPACONSUMPTION
• Key: RESID,PRDID,LOCID

• “Capacity Consumption Rate of Production Resource” defines how much capacity is consumed per unit of
the product produced. The consumption rate is related to a production or assembly process and the
consumption rate is per produced / assembled piece.
• Capacity consumption rate for handling resource
• Technical Name: CAPACONSUMPTION
• Key: RESID,LOCID,PRDID,SOURCEID
• This key figure defines the capacity which is consumed on a handling resource by the receipt of one unit of a
location-product.
• Example: We assume that the Capacity Consumption Rate for product P1 on (handling) resource R1 in location L1
is 0.2 hours per piece. If the Net Demand for P1 at L1 is 100, the resulting Capacity Demand is as follows:
Capacity Demand = 100 [pieces] * 0.2 [hours/piece] = 20 [hours]

42
Additional Input Key Figures

• Capacity consumption rate for transportation resource

• Technical Name: TCAPACONSUMPTION
• Key: RESID,LOCID,PRDID,LOCFR

• This key figure specifies the capacity of a resource that is consumed when a product is transported. The consumption rate is defined for
each unit consumed when a product is transported. It can be used to calculate the capacity demand for a transportation resource.
• Example: We assume that the Capacity Consumption Rate for transportation resource R1 in location L1 is 0.2 hours per piece for product
P1. If the Net Demand for P1 at L1 is 100, the resulting Capacity Demand is:
Capacity Demand = 100 [pieces] * 0.2 [hours/piece] = 20 [hours]

• Capacity Supply Expansion of Production and Storage Resource

• Technical Name: CAPASUPPLYEXPANSION
• Key: RESID,LOCID

• “Capacity Supply Expansion” defines how much additional capacity is available beyond Normal Capacity

day (for that planning period).

• Sub-period of supply
• Technical Name: SUBPERIODSOFSUPPLY
• Key: PRDID,LOCID
• Used to specify the target periods of coverage

• Sub-period first production

• Technical Name: SUBPERIODFIRSTPRODUCTION
• Key: PRDID,LOCID,SOURCEID
• Used to specify the first production period when used with Production Periods of Coverage
44
Additional Input Key Figures

• Inter-sub-network non-delivery cost rate

• Technical Name: IPUNONDELIVERYCOSTRATE
• Key: PRDID,LOCTO
• Used to store intra company sales or procurement prices, i.e. the company internal prices that define the prices (per unit
of measure - piece or ton) according to which goods are sold / bought from one upstream PU to / by another downstream
sub-network.

• Inter-sub-network receipts costs

• Technical Name: IPURECEIPTCOSTRATE
• Key: PRDID,LOCID
• IPU Receipts Cost Rate key figure is used to model intra company procurement costs for goods which are supplied by
another (upstream) sub-network.

45
Additional Input Key Figures

• Inter-sub-network transport receipt

• Technical Name: IPUTRANSPORT
• Key: PRDID,LOCID,LOCFR
• This is both an input and output key figure.
• It is editable.
• If it is an input to the SCM Planning Operator and in case the parameter “Compute Expected Supply” is used, the operator
writes computed supply into it that’s why it is an output key figure too.

• Inter-sub-network dependent location demand downstream

• Technical Name: IPUDEPENDENTLOCATIONDEMANDDS
• Key: PRDID,LOCID

• This is both an input and output key figure.

• It is editable.

• The user can enter values into the key figure. However, it is blanked out if the related arc becomes an inner border arc.

46
Additional Input Key Figures

• Inter-sub-network Production receipt

• Technical Name: IPUPRODUCTION
• Key: SOURCEID, PRDID,LOCID
• This is both an input and output key figure.
• It is editable.

• Inter-sub-network Production Component Usage

• Technical Name: IPUPRODUCTIONCOMPONENTDS
• Key: PRDTO,LOCID,PRDID,SOURCEID

• This is both an input and output key figure.

• It is editable.

• The user can enter values into the key figure. However, it is blanked out if the related arc becomes an inner border arc
of the planning unit

47
Additional Input Key Figures

• Dynamic periods of supply with safety stock

• Technical Name: SUBPERIODSOFSUPPLYSAFESTOCK
• Key: PRDID,LOCID
• This is an input key figure. It enables you to define a second coverage time span in which to build up safety stock.
• It combines the advantages of both the static and the dynamic periods of supply lot-sizing procedures in that it not only minimizes the
number of production or transportation events (by planning production and transport receipts only in periods where there's a demand), but it
also builds up safety stock in each period.
• The planning algorithms first calculate an increased inventory target for each period, which is the maximum of the inventory target of the
period and the sum of the dependent demand within the coverage time span. As a result, net demand is increased so the resulting projected
inventories cover the dependent demands within the coverage time span, and also cover the increased inventory target in each period of
the coverage time span. The algorithms perform their calculations based on this increased inventory target, not on the Inventory Target input
key figure.
• Only the supply planning and supply propagation heuristics support dynamic periods of supply with safety stock. You can't use this lot-sizing
procedure with the optimizer or the shelf life planning heuristic.
• To use the dynamic periods of supply lot-sizing procedure, set the LOTSIZEPOLICY attribute to 5 on location product level.

48
Optimizer Input Key Figures

In addition to the key figures described, optimizer requires the following penalty cost key
figures as inputs:

• Technical Name: NONDELIVERYCOSTRATE
• Key: PRDID,CUSTID

• This key figure defines the costs per unit of a Customer Demand quantity per period that
is not met by the supply plan stored in key figure Total Customer Receipt.
• The cost incurred is proportional to the difference between Customer demand and Total
Customer Receipt.

50
Optimizer Input Key Figures

• Fixed customer transportation cost

• Technical Name: FIXEDCUSTOMERTRANSPORTATIONCOST

• Key: PRDID,LOCID
• This output key figure contains the quantity in inventory; i.e. the planned stock on-hand for a location product at the end
of each period. The formula used to compute Projected Inventory PI(t) in period t is:
PI(1) = Inventory on-hand + Receipts(1) – Supply(1)
where period 1 is assumed to be the planning period corresponding to the current time.
PI(t) = MAX { PI(t-1); 0 } + Receipts(t) – Supply(t) for t = 2, 3, …, T.
 The term “Max { PI(t-1); 0 }” means that if the Projected Inventory in period (t-1) is negative the SCM Planning Operator assumes an
inventory at the end of period (t-1) of zero in order to compute the Net Demand in period t.

negative Projected Inventory.

• Key figure Shortage always equals zero when a plan was computed by the optimizer.
• When using the S&OP heuristic “Infinite without Shortages” key figure, Shortage will also be zero in all buckets. The reason for the strategy

• Adjusted Transport Supply is a Downstream Key Figure corresponding to the Upstream Key Figure Adjusted Transport

90
Minimum Key Figures

• The Minimum key figures can be used by a planner directly for manual input to set a lower bound to the planned supply.
• The Minimum key figures are in addition to the Adjusted key figures. The difference is that Adjusted key figures fix a supply
value to an absolute value while Minimum key figures only set a lower bound.
• Besides the externally planned supply that has to be considered as minimum supply by the SCM planning algorithms, these
key figures can also be used by a planner directly for manual input to set a lower bound to the planned supply.
• The heuristic respects Minimum key figures as follows: an initial value in a Minimum key figure has no effect. A non-initial
value is compared with the value computed by the heuristic for the corresponding output key figure. (Transport Receipts, for
instance, is the corresponding output key figure to Minimum Transport Receipts.)
• If the minimum value is lesser than the computed value, the heuristic takes the value which was computed by the heuristic.
• If the computed value is lesser than the minimum value, the minimum value is taken.
• Optimizer treats Minimum key figures as constraints.
• When treating Minimum key figures as a hard constraint such minimum values might over-constrain the optimization
problem so that the problem might be unsolvable.

92
 Minimum Key Figures - Minimum External Receipts

Minimum external receipts

• Technical name: MINRECEIPT
• Key: PRDID,LOCID
• A non-initial value in key figure Minimum external receipts ensures that the SCM planning algorithms plan a
minimum External Receipt.
• As an example: if the Net Demand to be sourced via a U sourcing rule is 8 units, the SCM planning algorithms would set a
receipt in exactly that quantity.
• If the user has defined a Minimum External Receipt of 10 units, the planning algorithms would respect this by having a
receipt of 10 units. As this is more than needed, normally this will build-up inventory which is in this example 2 units.
• In case the Minimum External Receipt was 7 and not 10, the SCM planning operator would still source a receipt of 8.
• A value given in key figure Adjusted External Receipts, in contrast, would define a fixed value which has to be respected
by the planning algorithms. If in the example above, the user enters an Adjusted Receipt of 7, the planning algorithms
would take this value without any change.

93
 Minimum Key Figures - Minimum Production Receipts and Maximum Inventory

Minimum production receipts

• Technical name: MINPRODUCTION
• Key: PRDID,LOCID,SOURCEID
• Minimum production receipts are related to the supply key figure Production receipts and they define

 Aggregated Constraints Key Figures

• Aggregated constraint key figures enable you to model optimizer constraints at any aggregate level of product,
customer, location or resource attribute.

• For example, you can specify minimum demand for the combination of product family and customer region. The
following new aggregated constraint key figures are delivered in the standard system:

• By default, aggregated constraints are modeled as hard constraints. If required, you can model minimum
aggregated constraints as pseudo-hard constraints by making the necessary settings in the optimizer profile
(see Optimizer Profile).

• The conditions defined by aggregated constraint key figures are evaluated on the underlying basic master data
entities and their key figure values, so that the optimizer can add the relevant constraints.

• Unlike other key figures, aggregated constraint key figure values are only stored at the aggregate level (that is,
the level where you entered them in the Excel planning view) and there is no disaggregation

• Aggregated constraints can exist on multiple planning levels in parallel for the same key figure.

Aggregated Constraints Key Figures
Aggregated Constraints Using Conversion Factors for Production

For example, you may want to ensure that specific high grade products are manufactured on a specific
production line, but you don't know in advance how long it takes to manufacture them.
To ensure they're produced, you can allocate a certain number of hours on the production line for them,
defined as a production capacity usage aggregated constraint.
You can also specify the period to which this production capacity usage aggregated constraint applies.
Minimum Aggregate Production Capacity Usage (MINAGGPCAPAUSAGE)
Base planning level: Cal Week | Product | Location | Resource | Source | Aggregation
You can use this key figure to allocate minimum resource utilization or consumption at an aggregate level for
production resources.

Maximum Aggregate Production Capacity Usage (MAXAGGPCAPAUSAGE)

Base planning level: Cal Week | Product | Location | Resource | Source | Aggregation
You can use this key figure to allocate maximum resource utilization or consumption at an aggregate level for
production resources.

108
Aggregated Constraints Key Figures
Aggregated Constraints Using Conversion Factors for Transportation
For example, you can add the capacity consumption rate of the mode of transport as a conversion
factor to this aggregated constraint so that adequate capacity is reserved for transportation.

Minimum Aggregate Transportation Capacity Usage (MINAGGTCAPAUSAGE)

Base planning level: Cal Week | Product | Location | Ship-From Location | Transportation Resource |
Aggregation
You can use this key figure to allocate minimum consumption rate at an aggregate level for
transportation resources.

Maximum Aggregate Transportation Capacity Usage (MAXAGGTCAPAUSAGE)

Base planning level: Cal Week | Product | Location | Ship-From Location | Transportation Resource |
Aggregation
You can use this key figure to allocate maximum consumption rate at an aggregate level for
transportation resources.

109
 Inventory Correction Key Figures

Inventory Correction (INVENTORYCORRECTION)

Base planning level: Product – Location

You can use the Inventory Correction key figure to influence the calculation of the projected stock. If the value of
the Inventory Correction key figure is not initial, the planning operator adds this value to the projected stock as
follows:

PS(1) = Stock on Hand + Receipts(1) – Supply(1) + Inventory Correction(1)

In this case, period 1 is assumed to be the first period within the planning horizon and the key figure Stock on
Hand stores the available stock at the beginning of period 1.

PS(t) = MAX { PS(t-1); 0 } + Receipts(t) – Supply(t) + Inventory Correction(t)

for t = 2, 3, …, T.

You can enter positive or negative values in the Inventory Correction key figure.

110
 Inventory Correction Key Figures

Inventory Correction Violated (INVENTORYCORRECTIONVIOLATED)

Base planning level: Product – Location

Inventory corrections are modeled as “pseudo-hard” constraints, meaning that very high penalty costs guide the optimizer to
adhere to these constraints. However, if no other feasible solution can be found, the optimizer may violate these pseudo-hard
constraints. The Inventory Correction Violated output key figure is set to zero if the constraints can be adhered to. Otherwise, it
returns the sum or difference between the value in the Inventory Correction key figure and the actual quantity calculated by the
optimizer.

Example If a negative inventory correction is entered but the quantity cannot be completely supplied, the Inventory Correction
Violated key figure returns the sum of the requested value and the actual value. If you enter -100 units as the inventory correction
but only 80 units can be delivered, the Inventory Correction Violated key figure would contain -100 + 80 = -20.

If a positive inventory correction is entered but the quantity cannot be completely accepted (received) by a location, the Inventory
Correction Violated key figure returns the difference between the requested value and the actual value. If you enter +60 units as
the inventory correction but the optimizer only accepts 10 units, the Inventory Correction Violated key figure would contain 60 - 10
= 50. However, because the maximum inventory level is modeled as a soft constraint, this case should never occur. The Inventory
Correction Violated key figure should usually only contain negative values or zero.

111
 Late Delivery Key Figures

The optimizer can calculate a supply plan in which customer demands are fulfilled later than requested, that is, delivery takes
place either partially or completely in one or more periods after the requested period.

By default, the optimizer attempts to satisfy all customer demands on time. In other words, the optimizer tries to
plan customer receipts that match the corresponding customer demands in all periods and for each customer
product. If it can't generate a supply plan that meets these requirements, any non-delivered quantities are
considered to be lost sales because they are not transferred to a subsequent period.

If you want to change the default behavior of the optimizer so that non-delivered quantities are carried over to a
subsequent period, you can do so using the key figures below.

Late Delivery Maximum Periods (CONSDEMLATEDELIVMAX)

Base planning level: Customer – Product

You can use this input key figure to specify the maximum number of periods that a customer demand, or part of a
customer demand, can be delivered late.

112
 Late Delivery Key Figures

Late Delivery Cost Rate (CONSDEMLATEDELIVCOSTRATE)

Base planning level: Customer – Product

You can use this input key figure to specify the cost rate for late deliveries (per unit of measure and period). These
costs are incurred for any amounts that are delivered late in each period.

To avoid unnecessary late deliveries, you must fill this key figure accordingly. It is multiplied with the number of
periods and the quantities that are delivered late to return the cost of the late deliveries.

Total Delivered (CONSDEMDELIVERED)

Base planning level: Customer – Product

This output key figure specifies the total customer demand that is delivered on time or late (that is, the demand
that is satisfied in any period).

113
 Minimum Resource Consumption

For business reasons, your organization may want use of a specific resource to be equal to, or more than, a
certain minimum. If so, you can use the minimum resource consumption feature to ensure that the S&OP
optimizer creates a supply plan that increases production receipts to this minimum consumption value, even if
fewer production quantities would be sufficient to satisfy the relevant customer demands.

You specify a minimum consumption value for a resource in each period using the key figure MINCAPAUSAGE.
Minimum resource consumption is modeled as a soft constraint, that is, it can be violated, but any violation adds
penalty costs to the optimizer’s objective function. You define the amount of these penalty costs in the key
figure MINCAPAUSAGEVIOLCOSTRATE.

If you define minimum consumption for a resource, you may end up producing more than required to fulfil
customer or independent demands. If this happens, you can use the amount left over in the following ways:
• Add it to stock at the location where it was produced.
• Transport it to other locations and add it to stock there.
• Use it in other production processes.

114
 Minimum Resource Capacity

Minimum Resource Capacity Usage (MINCAPAUSAGE)

Base planning level: Resource – Location

You can use this input key figure to specify the minimum consumption for a resource in a defined period at a specified location.
This value can be violated, but any violation adds penalty costs, which you define in the key
figure MINCAPAUSAGEVIOLCOSTRATE.

This key figure is not supported for handling and storage resources.

Minimum Resource Capacity Violation Cost Rate (MINCAPAUSAGEVIOLCOSTRATE)

Base planning level: Resource – Location

You can use this input key figure to specify the cost per unit that applies if the actual consumption is below the specified
minimum consumption value for a resource in a defined period at a specified location.

This key figure is not supported for handling and storage resources.

Key Figures Used for Inventory

• IOFORECAST: Input key figure, result of the demand planning process, used to calculate the safety stock levels across
the whole network.

• IOFORECASTERRORCV: Input key figure, needs to be sourced externally. Used to calculate the safety stock levels
across the whole network.

• TARGETSERVICELEVEL: Input key figure, contains the desired target service level (non stock-out probability or fill-rate)
for each customer group, product, location combination.

penalty costs to enforce a certain behavior.

Please note the inventory optimization will take only the first period into account.

Demand Sensing Key Figures

• Demand sensing requires many key figures that are used by the algorithms internally, but that are
typically not visible to or used by a Demand planner.

• There are certain naming conventions with regards to Demand sensing key figures. Demand

General Remarks

From business point of view there are several possibilities which forecast errors are calculated on
which level and for which lags. Within SAPIBP1 the following assumptions are made:
• For Demand and S&OP purposes:
• Forecast Accuracy is measured for Statistical Forecast Qty, Consensus Demand Plan Qty, Consensus Demand
Final and Combined Final Demand
• Forecast Error is calculated and stored in monthly buckets for 1 Month and 3 Months Lag
• Beside of the forecast error the corresponding forecast bias are calculated and stored as well
• All these calculations are done on Product/Location/Customer-Level
• Exactly one forecast error measure is used (e.g. MAPE)
• For IO purposes:
• Forecast Accuracy is measured for key figure Demand Forecast
• Forecast Error is calculated time independent – means Lag = 0
• Beside of the forecast error the corresponding forecast bias are calculated and stored as well
• All these calculations are done on Product/Location/CustomerGroup-Level
• Exactly one forecast error measure is used. For IO this is typically Coefficient of Variation (CV)

 SAPIBP1 is build up based on these assumptions

 In case there are other requirements, changes to the planning area setup are needed

Demand & S&OP: Forecast Error Calculation Process Example

The process steps of creating a new statistical forecast,

create snapshot data and calculate the forecast error
could look like this example:
Batch Job with several steps:
• Run statistical forecast job: New Statistical forecast is
created
• Create 1M and 3M Lag snapshot: run Lag-Based Snapshot
operator with settings like this:
• Calculate new Statistical Forecast Error + Bias

There are several options to schedule these steps in a certain

order. Important to mention is that this can be automatized to a
large extend.

• Time independent key figure used to store the error calculated by the algorithm

• IOFORECASTERRORCV: Can be used to manually overwrite the system calculated forecast error or to load the forecast error from an
external data source

• IOFCSTBIASCALCULATED: Contains the latest calculated forecast bias on product-location-customer group level
• Time independent key figure used to store the bias calculated by the algorithm

• IOFCSTBIASUSED: Contains the forecast bias that is used to adjust historical forecasts and calculate the forecast error. It can be different
than the IOFCSTBIASCALCULATED which is calculated by the algorithm. For example, if user only wants to adjust forecast when there is
positive forecast bias in the calculation of forecast error (this is configurable in the forecast error profile), IOFCSTBIASUSED will be zero
when IOFCSTBIASCALCULATED is negative

Two “Attributes as Key Figures” are used for

Unit of Measure (UoM) and currency conversion of
several other key figures:
• UOMCONVERSIONFACTOR
• EXCHANGERATE

“Attributes as Key Figure” means:

• Key figure is modelled as attribute with data type
“Decimal” as part of a master data type (MDT)
• When assigning this MDT and attribute to the
planning area, you need to assign a planning level
and a key figure is created by the system
• Key figure is showing up as normal key figure in the
planning area
• Key figure values are time-independent
• Key figures can be used for calculations: same value
is used in each time bucket
• Key figure data can be filled during upload of the
corresponding master data type

ADJUSTEDDELIVQTYHELPER
• It is required for enabling to manually overwrite data for ADJUSETEDDELIVQTY.
• It has no business meaning and is only needed for modelling purposes.
• Uses the Advanced Simulation Planning Operator (ADVSIM) in order to have stored values that can be used for disaggregation of
ADJUSTEDDELIVQTY.
• ADJUSTEDDELIVQTY is calculated based on the key figure DELIVQTY, which is stored on another level. Such values cannot be used
for disaggregation via Excel. Therefore, you need a stored “helper” key figure, in our example this is ADJUSTEDDELIVQTYHELPER,
used for the disaggregation.

• IBP for supply distinguishes between sourcing rules for customer demand (Customer Ratio or C-Rule), for transportation (Transportation Ratio or T-Rule),
production (P-Rule), and unspecified (U-Rule).
• Source customer master data defines how the customer demand is satisfied.
220
 IBPSOURCECUSTOMER Master Data Type (cont.)

Customer source (C-Rule):

• Defines from which location (distribution center, plant or supplier) of the supply network a customer demand has to be
satisfied in what percentage.
• Customer sourcing can be maintained as time-dependent or time-independent.
• It also describes the lead time for shipping to the customer.

Master data key figure – Customer sourcing quota:

• This input key figure contains the quotas for sourcing customer demand for a product from various ship-from locations.
• These quotas are respected by the heuristics but not by the optimizer.

221
IBPSOURCECUSTGROUP Master Data Type

Remarks
• MDT “Simple”
• Key: CUSTGROUP, PRDID, LOCID
• Connects the customers via the CUSTGROUP to a
product and a location

Remarks
• MDT “Compound”
• Key: LOCID, LOCFR, PRDID
• Source Location master data
defines how a product is sourced
for a location via a transport from
another location (the ship-from
locations).
• To connect two warehouses define
the connection with
SOURCELOCATION between
LOCFRID and LOCID for a certain
product PRDID.

223
 IBPSOURCELOCATION Master Data Type (cont.)

Remarks
• Min. and incr. transportation lot sizes can be modeled.
• The delivery type can be C (crossover order delivery) or S (sequential order delivery).
• Lead time variability can be modeled via TLEADTIME (mean value) and TLEADTIMEVARIABILITY (coefficient
of variance).
• If a warehouse is sourced from more than one location then this can be defined using TRATIO.
• If the sourcing is time-dependent then set RATIOTS to “X” and use the key figure LOCATIONRATIO.
• Transportation shipment frequency and its impact on cycle stock can be modeled.

224
 IBPSOURCELOCATION Master Data Type (cont.)

Transportation source (T-Rule):

• To plan supply through stock transfer from another location one has to specify a suitable transport sourcing
rule (T-rule).
• Transport sourcing can be maintained as time-dependent or time-independent key figure
• This includes the lead time and lot size information.
• Quota is only used by Unconstrained Heuristic.

Master data key figure – Location sourcing quota

• This input key figure contains the quotas for sourcing customer demand for a product from various ship-from
locations.
• These quotas are respected by the heuristics but not by the optimizer.

225
IBPPRODUCTIONSOURCEITM Master Data Type

Remarks

• MDT “Simple”

• Key: PRDID, SOURCEID

• Mandatory attributes:

• SOURCEITMID

• Source production is an Item table and

describes components and the component
co-efficient.

• Component coefficient quantity, that is,

quantity of component in a bill of material
(BOM).

• The resulting product is the SOURCEITMID

• COMPONENTCOEFFICIENTTS can be set

to “Y” if the coefficient is time dependent.

• Can be modeled as time-independent or

time-dependent as key figure.

226
IBPSOURCEPRODUCTION Master Data Type

Remarks
• MDT “Simple”
• Key: SOURCEID, LOCID, PRDID
• Source production is a Header table and describes
products and co-products, where the quantities of
co-product and product are related by the output
coefficients.
• SOURCEPRODUCTION defines an entry point for
new material – either through production or
procurement. Source Type = U (external vendor) or
P (production).
• SOURCEID is a unique ID that either describes the
supplier record or the bill of material ID. Please
note that the same SOURCEID can be used for
different products and locations (e.g. for the same
supplier or the same BoM in different locations).
• The connection to the components of a BoM is
defined in PRODUCTIONSOURCEITM using the
SOURCEID.
• The delivery type can be C (crossover order
delivery) or S (sequential order delivery).

227
 IBPSOURCEPRODUCTION Master Data Type (cont.)

Production source (P-Rule):

• To plan supply through Production one has to specify a suitable Production sourcing.
• Source Type ‘P’ is used to specify a P-Rule. The meaning of a production sourcing rule is that Product is produced at the
location where the demand for Product exists.
• The main output product carries lot size information, which also applies to the co-product (via the output coefficient
relationship).
• PMINLOTSIZE is minimum lot size and PMAXLOTSIZE is maximum lot size.
• Production ratio can be maintained as time-dependent or time-independent. P-ratio is only used by Unconstrained
Heuristic.
• Output coefficient defines the base production quantity. It can be modeled as time-dependent as key figure or time-
independent via attribute.

Unspecified sourcing (U-Rule):

• U sourcing role is specified when the source of supply to meet the demand is not required to be modeled explicitly.
• If, for instance, the supply network terminates at a location product where components are purchased and the supply
chain of the supplier should not be taken into account one needs sourcing rules indicating the planning algorithms to stop
the network propagation but to make supply available. This is the task of unspecified sourcing; Source Type “U” stands for
“unspecified”.
• U sources do not have a sourcing quota. There can only be one U rule per product-location.
228
IBPSOURCEPRODUCTION Master Data Type (cont.)

SOURCEPRODUCTION • Min. and incr. product lot sizes can

Attributes Description be modeled.
• The lead time can be modeled as a
PMINLOTSIZE Minimum production lot size
static value or with uncertainty
PINCLOTSIZE Production incremental lot size (using the variability = CV).
• The OUTPUTCOEFFICIENT defines
PLEADTIME Production Lead Time
the number of products produced
PLEADTIMEVARIABILITY Production Lead Time CV (currently only 1 is supported).
• If a product can be produced or
Indicator if procured by more than one
OUTPUTCOEFFICIENTTS OUTPUTCOEFFICIENT is static SOURCEID, the same mechanism
or defined as a key figure as with TRATIO applies here for
PRATIO and PRATIOTS (the key
OUTPUTCOEFFICIENT Output Product Coefficient figure is PRODUCTIONRATIO).

 Planning Level Overview

Naming convention of planning levels:

• Name of the planning level indicates the used root attributes
• Example: WKPRODLOCCUSTGROUP
− Root attributes are: Week, PRDID, LOCID, CUSTGROUP

• Planning level name starts with the time dimension (if time is used at all):
• DAY = day, MTH = month, WK = week ; YEAR

• Planning levels ending with …CURR are used as base planning level for key figures which are
currency dependent

• Planning levels ending with …CURRTO are used for currency conversion

• Planning levels ending with …UOMTO are used for UoM conversion

 SAPIBP1: General Planning Area Settings - Planning Operators

Planning operators
• General definition: A planning operator uses an algorithm to compute large amounts of key figure data inside a
planning session. You can schedule a planning operator to be processed in the background.

• Planning operators used within SAPIBP1 (default settings):

• Inventory optimization (IO)
− Single stage inventory opt – starts a local inventory optimization for all customer facing nodes
− Multistage inventory opt – starts a multistage inventory optimization across the whole network. Besides the main output key figures the
internal key figures related to demand and service level are calculated (not for lost demand, see next planning operator)
− Expected demand loss – calculates the expected loss (which depends also on the type of service level), the output key figures for lost
demand are filled.
− Calculate inventory components – calculates the additional components of inventory including cycle stock, pipeline stock, etc.
• Demand
− IBPFORECAST: Pre-requisite when doing forecasting
− ADVSIM: Used for enable saving manual overwrites to ADJDELIVQTY

263
Changes Related to Bug Fixes
1. Forecast Model “BestFit” for considering Product LifeCycle Information : The flag "Consider
Product Lifecycle Information" was moved from tab "Forecasting Steps" to tab "General". This required
an update of the BestFit Forecast Model.

2. Inventory Optimization

The non-root attribute SOURCETYPE was removed from

• WKPRODTOLOCPRODSRC

• WKPRODTOLOCPRODSRCUOMTO

Reason:In planning levels WKPRODTOLOCPRODSRC and WKPRODTOLOCPRODSRCUOMTO,

customers must not assign any other (non-root) attributes from SOURCEPRODUCTION MDT in order
to avoid problems due to attribute mismatches (PRDID in the planning levels is the component
whereas the PRDID in the SOURCEPRODUCTION MDT is the header product).

3. Time Series Supply : INVENTORYTARGET Key Figures - mark as "Input for Supply"

264
Changes Related to Time Series Supply Planning - Enhancements in Lot Size Procedures

You can now exclude dependent location demand and dependent production demand when using
the static and dynamic periods of supply lot-sizing procedures. You do this by setting the
IGNOREDEPLOCDEM (Ignore Dependent Location Demand) attribute or the
IGNOREDEPPRODDEM (Ignore Dependent Production Demand) attribute (as appropriate) in the
Location Product master data type to 1.

For this two new attributes have been added to the LOCATIONPRODUCT MDT:

- IGNOREPDEPLOCDEM (Ignore Dependent Location Demand)

- IGNOREDEPPRODDEM (Ignore Dependent Production Demand)

See IBP help for further information:

Beside this the “Convert Using” setting has been removed from key figure FINALIOSAFETYSTOCKLASTCYCLE.
275
Miscellaneous Changes
Changes related to BestFit Forecasting Model:
• In the Forecast Model “BestFit” the flag "Consider Time Series Properties” is flagged
• Use Case: If you select the Choose Best Forecast method for utilizing multiple forecasts, you can set the system to
check the time series properties that were identified by the most recent forecast automation job for the selected planning
objects, and use them to filter out the algorithms that are not expected to calculate an appropriate forecast.
Such algorithms are not run before the comparison and are therefore excluded from the selection, which leads to
reduced processing time and more robust forecasting results.

Adjustment related to validation check:

• Planning Area activation log showed two warnings:
• W - COSTPERUNIT: Attribute CURRID in planning level MTHCURRCURRTOPRODUOMTO must be conversion source.
• W - COSTPERUNIT: Attribute PRDID in planning level MTHCURRCURRTOPRODUOMTO must be conversion source.
• To remove these warnings the following changes had to be done
• Planning Level MTHCURRCURRTOPRODUOMTO: Select conversion source for Attributes CURRID and PRDID

Adjusted Calculation for HCONVFINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY (Bugfix):

• HCONVFINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY@WKPRODLOCCUST
= "FINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY@WKPRODLOCCUST"
276
Changes with 1905
Changes related to Forecast Error Calculation (1/4)

SAPIBP1 has the following example modelling related to forecast accuracy calculation:

• Statistical Forecast Qty Error: 1 Month and 3 Months Lag

• Combined Final Demand Error: 1 Month and 3 Months Lag

• Consensus Demand Plan Qty Error: 1 Month and 3 Months Lag

• Consensus Demand Final Error: 1 Month and 3 Months Lag

Lag 1 and Lag 3 was picked as an example. This may be different in reality.

Up to IBP 1902 a separate snapshot key figure for each lag was modelled to keep the necessary lag
information.

With IBP 1905 the key figure modelling was changed so that the number of required key figures for the
snapshots is independent of the number of lags ( e.g. Lag1, Lag3, Lag6, Lag12).

More details see chapter “Key Figures Related to Forecast Error Calculation” later in this document
278
Changes related to Forecast Error Calculation (2/4)

• 4 new lag-based snapshot key figures:

• STATISTICALFORECASTQTYLAG
• COMBINEDFINALDEMANDLAG
• CONSENSUSDEMANDQTYLAG
• FINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTYLAG
These 4 key figures have “Lag” as additional root attribute and are used to store the snapshot data. Each
key figure can store all required lags.

• 4 new helper key figures:

• HCONVSTATISTICALFORECASTQTY
• HCONVCOMBINEDFINALDEMAND
• HCONVCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY
• HCONVFINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY
These 4 helper key figures are used by the system when generating the snapshot data via the “Lag-based
Snap Shot” Operator (more details see chapter “Key Figures Related to Forecast Error Calculation” later in
this document)
279
Changes related to Forecast Error Calculation (3/4)

• Deleted Key Figures:

• STATISTICALFORECASTQTY1MLAG
• STATISTICALFORECASTQTY3MLAG
• COMBINEDFINALDEMAND1MLAG
• COMBINEDFINALDEMAND3MLAG
• CONSENSUSDEMANDQTY1MLAG
• CONSENSUSDEMANDQTY3MLAG
• FINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY1MLAG
• FINALCONSENSUSDEMANDQTY3MLAG
These key figures are replaced by the 4 new lag-based key figures mentioned the page before

• New planning level:

• MTHPRODLOCCUSTLAGUOMTO

280
Changes related to Forecast Error Calculation (4/4)

The following planning operators were removed from SAPIBP1 planning area:
• S&OP Fcst Error: 1M Lag
• S&OP Fcst Error: 3M Lag
• DP Fcst Error: 1M Lag
• DP Fcst Error: 3M Lag

The following two Forecast Error Calculation profiles are shipped together with SAPIBP1:
• Profile “DP_Forecast_Error“
• Profile “SOP_Forecast_Error”
These two profiles are changed with IBP 1905 so that they use the new lag-based snapshot key figures as
input now.
More details see chapter “Key Figures Related to Forecast Error Calculation” later in this document

281
Changes related to Alignment with SAP4 (1/3)

The Sample Planning Areas SAPIBP1 and SAP4 were differing in some aspects. The following
changes were done to further align SAPIBP1:

• New key figure TARGETPERIODCUSTDEMAND: Target Period for Customer Demand

• This lot-sizing procedure enables you to use lot sizing on all supply chain levels, with the heuristic
considering only direct customer demands at a location to build safety stock
• Added to UPSIDE and DOWNSIDE version

• Set attribute category to "Calculated" for PLUNITID1

and PLUNITID2
• Subnetwork-specific segmentation of planning objects
improves the performance of the time-series-based planning
algorithms because it optimizes the reading of the planning
data. It can also significantly reduce the amount of memory
the planning algorithms consume.

289
 Changes related to stricter Planning Area Validation Check
Planning Levels were adjusted to a stricter validation check in planning area activation: "Raise Error for Planning Levels with ambiguous configuration". Before 1905 it
was possible to configure multiple planning levels with Identical roots AND Non-indentical non-roots.
This is a configuration „error” that can cause issues with data integration. The planning levels would generate identical planning level filters, while the attributes would be
filled differently depending on the order of creating the PLANOBJECT table entries.

Changes related to “Risks and Opportunities” (1/8)

With SAP IBP 1905 the new functionality “Driver Based Planning” was introduced. In SAPIBP1 this
new feature was incorporated for modelling of risks & opportunities.

Driver-based planning supports you in capturing business drivers such as risks or opportunities,
evaluating their likely effects, expressing those effects in key figure values, and considering the
drivers in your supply chain plan. It captures both qualitative and quantitative information about a
business driver

301
Changes related to “Risks and Opportunities” (2/8)
The following changes were done:
• New attributes:
Attribute ID Attribute Description Comment
ROPID Risk/Opp ID ID of your risk or opportunity.
ROPDESCR Risk/Opportunity Descr Description of your risk or opportunity.
ROPTYPEID Risk/Opp Type Type of your driver. For example, risk or opportunity.
PRIORITYID Priority ID You can use this attribute to specify how you want to prioritize the risk or opportunity.
For example, high, medium, or low.
ASSUMPTIONCATID Assumption Category ID You can assign an assumption category for your risk or opportunity. Values for this
attribute can be defined in the IBPASSUMPTIONCATEGORY master data type.
Possible values are competition, market growth, weather, or others.
PLANNINGCYCLE Planning Cycle You can specify a planning cycle for which the driver is applicable, for example,
“March 2019” or “S&OP Process April 2019”.
BUDGETED Budgeted Y/N With the value Y (Yes) or N (No) you can specify if the risk or opportunity is
