Monitor Material coverage App



With this app, you can monitor all the make-to-stock and collective requirements materials in a selected area of responsibility. You are provided with a list of all materials with net requirements segments that might have coverage issues according to a specified shortage definition.

These rules define the scope of the shortage calculation meaning the supply and demand elements to be considered and the conditions that have to be met to be a relevant shortage. You can use the default filter Time till Shortage to check the coverage of materials within a specific time frame.

This app provides you with the information that you need to be able to react to the shortage situation on time, meaning that you can avoid disruptions to production or to the fulfillment of customer demands.
