Simulation of Slotting 

Use

You can use this function to simulate slotting without updating the product master.

Features

You perform the simulation in the test system. There you can change the configuration in any way that you want to without causing errors. You can analyze the results of the simulation step-by-step and can optimize the configuration.

When you are satisfied with the result, you must adapt the configuration in the production system in accordance with the configuration in the test system. Part of the configuration is mapped via master data that you must change manually in the production system. We recommend that you then simulate slotting in the production system to check the configuration. Afterwards, you can perform slotting in the production system, and can save and activate the results there.
