SAP Business Network Planning Collaboration

SAP Business Network Planning Collaboration is a cloud, web-based service for coordinating planning work with suppliers and manufacturers. Its stated scope includes forecasting, capacity planning, and manufacturing visibility. The listed Planning Collaboration plan provides one production tenant and one test tenant of SAP Business Network. Demand planning and supplier management are supported. Logistics functions include dock door scheduling, carrier self-service, appointment requests, and driver check-in, with both listed load types supported. SAP also describes a separate Business Network Freight Collaboration plan. That plan is priced on request, billed in blocks of 10,000 documents per year, and available with contract terms from one to five years. Planning Collaboration itself is paid, with pricing available on request and no specific amount listed. The product is deployed in the cloud and available through the web. SAP was founded in 1972 and is headquartered in Walldorf, Germany. Organizations evaluating the service should review the tenant arrangement and the document-based terms for the freight plan.

It suits organizations coordinating forecasts, capacity, manufacturing visibility, suppliers, and freight activities in a cloud service. Teams needing web access and separate production and test tenants may find the listed plan relevant.
