Overview of the Supply Planning Work Area

You use the Supply Planning work area to configure, view, and analyze your real world business processes.

You can use the Supply Planning work area to do the following:

  • View multiple plans and plan inputs simultaneously.

  • Use predefined page layouts or create user-defined page layouts to view plan data tailored for your organization.

To access the Supply Planning work area and open a plan:

  1. In the Navigator, click the Supply Planning work area link.

  2. Click the Plans drawer, expand Plans.

  3. Right-click a plan and select Open.

Your plan by default opens in the Edit Plan page. This page consists of two main areas:

  • Header

  • Configurable pane

Header

The header area contains the page layout information and actionable buttons, such as Save Layout, Change, Open, Actions, Save, and Cancel. Header displays the plans, simulation sets, and plan inputs that are currently opened.

Configurable Pane

You can display the content of your plan in the configurable pane area. You can add multiple panes on the page to display your content. The Page Layout drop-down list in the header area determines the number of panes in your planning interface page.
