How You Use Measure Catalogs in Supply Chain Planning

The measure catalog is similar to the dimension catalog.

Each measure catalog has a collection of measures that you can enable for use in plans in one of the Supply Chain Planning work areas. While Oracle provides predefined measures, you can also create measures in some work areas and add them to a measure catalog.

On the Configure Planning Analytics page, Measure Catalogs tab, you can create a measure catalog and add or remove measures from a measure catalog.

The predefined measure catalog is the default. When you create a new plan, the measure catalog that is used is based on the catalog check box located on the Measure Catalogs tab. For example, the catalog check box in the:

• Planning Central work area is Planning Central Catalog

• Sales and Operations Planning work area is Sales and Operations Planning Catalog

• Demand Management work area is Demand Management Catalog

• Supply Planning work area is Supply Planning Catalog

If you change the default catalog later, the plan continues to use the same measure catalog that it was created with.
