Course Overview
Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning (ASCP) is a comprehensive, Internet-based planning solution that decides when and where supplies (for example, inventory, purchase orders and work orders) should be deployed within an extended supply chain. This is the supply planning function. Oracle ASCP addresses the following key supply planning issues:
- How do I plan my supply chain in the least amount of time possible?
- How do I minimize the number of plans and iterations?
- How do I plan my entire supply chain?
- How do I involve my trading partners?
- How can I access my plan from anywhere?
- How do I keep improving my plans?
