planning accuracy. Requirements
are calculated on the basis of historical
business volume data, causal factors,
marketing campaigns, market intelligence
and sales targets. These processes
are supported by algorithms
according to Croston or Winters, by
median method etc. depending on the
course of the examined time series
(control signals).

integrate data from other SAP systems
into requirements calculation. Furthermore,
important information from non-

of these functions for example even
smaller sales companies, which do not
yet use a consistent SAP system, are
enabled to integrate their forecast
requirements into consolidation.

by means of a planning calendar. These
can be made available in respective
aggregations by suppliers in form of
e-mail, CSV-files or on market places. In
this way it is guaranteed that all corporate
planning areas are taken into
account, which leads to a significant
increase in forecast accuracy and a
lasting boost of your competitive edge.
