The analytical app Explore Stock Deficits
provides a long-term overview of situations in the supply network where the actual quantity of stock on hand falls short of the predefined safety stock. You can monitor and analyze the relevant supply planning data on an aggregated level, and perform a drill-down analysis as needed.
You can use the app to do the following:
View your supply planning data (key performance indicators (KPIs) and key figures) in a personalized table or chart
Gain an overview of the data on an aggregated level
Drill down into the data to identify the root cause of possible issues
To perform a drill-down analysis of planning data, you can filter it by the following dimensions:
Location
Product
Attributes of location and product (for example, product group, region or planner)
Note
You can create new filters based on master data attributes in Customizing for Advanced Planning and Optimization
under .
You can display the following KPIs on the launchpad:
Safety stock deficit (absolute)
The safety stock deficit (absolute)
KPI indicates the total uncovered safety stock for all location products and periods.
The KPI is calculated from the following key figures of the individual location products:
Stock on hand
Supply shortage
Minimum stock
For each location product, the formula for calculating the safety stock deficit (absolute)
KPI subtracts the stock on hand
key figure and the supply shortage
key figure from the minimum stock
key figure. A value over 0 indicates a deficit. The deficit values are summed for all periods.
The value displayed on the launchpad tile is an aggregated value for all location products.
Safety stock deficit (maximum)
The safety stock deficit (maximum)
KPI indicates the maximum of total uncovered safety stock.
The KPI is calculated from the following key figures of the individual location products:
Safety stock
Stock on hand
Supply shortage
For each location product and period, the formula for calculating the safety stock deficit (maximum)
KPI subtracts the stock on hand
key figure and the supply shortage
key figure from the safety stock
key figure. A value over 0 indicates a deficit. The formula selects the maximum value out of the received results.
To calculate the value displayed on the tile, the deficit quantities of all location products are summed for each period, and the maximum is selected out of the received results.
You can display your own custom KPIs as additional columns of the table view.
