Different display types enable you to vary the layout of your reports. Rough-cut planning can also be carried out to determine the amounts of the capacities and other resources required to meet these targets. SOP supports both the high-level planning of complex planning hierarchies and the detailed planning of finished products. The system can be configured either such that target key figures set at one organizational level are distributed automatically and consistently to all the other organizational levels in the hierarchy, or such that each level is planned separately. Standard SOP comes largely preconfigured with the system.
Flexible planning offers multiple options for customized configuration.
Planning in standard SOP is based on product group hierarchies and is always carried out level by level. Flexible planning is carried out on hierarchies containing any chosen organizational levels. Moreover, in flexible planning the content and layout of planning screens can be defined by the users. The Logistics Information Library uses simple search strategies which enable you to access all key figures in the LIS information systems. The LIL also offers you the option of cataloging and structuring key figures.
