Abstract
In this chapter we explain Integrated Business Planning on selected use cases enabled on SAP IBP. You can learn from those use cases how you can design processes and enable them on SAP IBP. Use cases cover how to run strategic initiative simulation in an end-to-end manner to expose volume, revenue, and profit impact. We bring an example on how to run demand planning for strategic form of the products in global organization. In tactical S&OP, we give you an example of a product review improved with segmentation aligned to business strategy. We bring up an efficient and effective demand planning concept which does leverage differentiated forecasting. When we move to supply, you can learn ways on how to improve supply planning with inventory optimization and safety stock planning and cost-based supply optimizer. We highlight an opportunity of SAP Ariba supplier collaboration, which can improve planning in complex supplier network. We describe financial elements which help to manage business risk and opportunities with “what-if” simulations. Finally in operational planning, we share how to leverage demand sensing and demand prioritization to improve supply chain responsiveness.

This excludes any preprocessing steps. For example, cleansing the consensus demand of promotions is a typical preprocessing step. The assumption made is that the consensus key figure input is one without promotions.
