New Planning: This planning is for the new product for which the Past Sales data is not available in the
system, so for this type of planning the merchandiser gives the Target range of coverage for new articles
based on his intelligence and experience.
Below mentioned are the parameters based on which the merchandiser prepares the Sales plan
for the articles at EAN level.

The business will provide the Historical Data for the Sales of an article at the EAN level and SAP will
maintain the replenishment related parameters in the article master and system would suggest the
Target dynamic stock on an articles.
In the Replenishment process in SAP at store level, to map the current business scenario we
can use the consumption based planning where the system would suggest the Target
Dynamic stock based on the consumption data.
The Article Master has the below replenishment parameters that needs to be maintained per
store and based on these parameters the replenishment will run and would suggest the
dynamic target stock.
Consumption Data:
Let’s say for the ease of calculation we are going to analyse the Sales data for the past 10 days
for a particular article in a particular store, then the consumption data for an article will be
maintained as mentioned in below screen shot.

RP Type:
Key field that determines how the article is planned, in our business scenario we will use the
RP Types as RF-Replenish with dyn.TargetStock (Replenishment with Target Dynamic Stock)
Control parameter for dynamically calculating the target stock in replenishment planning and
target range of coverage states the range of coverage during which a material is to be
available for customers, in our example we are keeping the target range of coverage as 10
days.
Forecast Model
We are going to use forecast model as the G-Moving Average Price and Period indicator we
can select as Daily (Period Indicator-T)

Historical Periods
Historical periods are the periods that we need to consider for the past sales data and
execute forecast for how many periods (periods can be daily, weekly, monthly etc. ).) in this
current example we are considering the daily periods.

Forecast Run:
Once all the above replenishment related parameters are maintained in SAP then before
running the replenishment we need to execute the forecast for that articles, as can be seen in
the below screen shot the No. of historical period value is 10 and system is going to execute
the forecast of 30 periods.
We are considering the Forecast model as moving average price calculation model as shown below:

The system has calculated the Forecast value as 74 consideing the Sales data of past 10 days
for example if today is 21st November and we are running the forecast today then system will
check the sales data from 11th Nov- to 20th –Nov and average out the value as shown below:

Total Consumption: From 11th Nov to 20th Nov = 740, divide by 10 = 74 , this is the quantity
suggested by the system.
Now when running the replenishment at the article or at the store level, the system would
multiply this forecasted values of the article with the Target Range of Coverage, here we are
maintaining the target range of coverage as 7 days so the replenishment should be 74*7=518,
as shown below:

The system is suggesting the replenishment quantity of 518 EA as shown below, the STO’s can
be generated from DC to receiving store based on the below suggested quantity by
generating the follow on documents.

This is the quantity suggested by system, if someone wants to change the quantity then we
need to select the particular line item and change the quantity in the system manually.
Also in standard SAP we will not be able to see the DC stock in the same screen.
In the above mentioned example, the quantity shown is 518 considering there are no open
STO’s or goods in transit for this article, if there are some open STO’s or goods in transit then
system would consider that incoming quantity and suggest the quantity based on that.
Let’s say for an example if there are some open STO’s, goods in transit or some issues are
there then system would consider these quantities as well as shown in the below screen shot.
Running the replenishment program without the ‘Include forecast Issue’ tick then system
would not consider the forecast values for the next week.

Suggested Target Dynamic Stock after subtracting the expected stock would be 518-(Stock on
Hand) – Open STO’s i.e. 518-10-10=498.
Apart from the above mentioned model for replenishment i.e. calculating the target dynamic
stock automatically based on consumption data, the business if required can provide the
Target Stock and Re-Order point in the article master manually or via some excel upload and
MRP type – RP can be used for those specific articles, in this case the system would trigger the
replenishment to fulfil the target stock once the stock reaches the Re-Order point quantity or
below.

The articles which have never been received in the stores are considered as the new articles
as in the standard SAP replenishment process if there is no consumption data available for
the articles then system would not consider these articles in the replenishment run. Tterfore

to handle this situation business would provide an Article and their corresponding store with
the target stock in an excel file and we will upload this file in the custom table and our
enhancement program will check the entries for the articles in the custom table for new
articles. iIf tries exist then based on the target stock present and DC stock availability
enhancement program will allocate the DC stock for new articles on the pro-rata basis.
