Overview of Oracle Replenishment Planning

This topic provides an overview of Oracle Replenishment Planning.

Here's what you can do in the Replenishment Planning work area:

  • Maintain optimum inventory levels at each node of your supply chain while meeting customer service targets.

  • Use automated processes to maintain inventory policy parameters, dynamically update on-hand inventory, reduce costs by calculating the economic order quantity (EOQ) for replenishments, and improve customer service levels.

  • Perform dynamic demand segmentation by grouping item-location combinations into segments that are meaningful to your business.

  • Calculate service level-based inventory policies and thresholds.

  • Integrate demand forecasting and time-phased inventory replenishment.

  • Set up a multiechelon replenishment plan to balance demand and supply at each echelon of your supply chain and perform replenishment planning in a holistic manner.

  • Rebalance inventories to move items from locations with excess inventory to locations with inventory shortages.

  • Perform end item substitution and supersession during demand fulfillment.

  • Simulate inventory planning.

  • Set up and monitor exceptions.

  • Use rich, embedded analytics.

  • Open the Buyer Planning work area to manage buy recommendations from Replenishment Planning. Buyer Planning helps you evaluate ways to consolidate and group planned orders. Additionally, you can release buy recommendations from within Buyer Planning.

Also, with REST services, you can generate replenishment orders, manage segments, and integrate Replenishment Planning with other modules in Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications.
