In which steps would you implement SCM APO?

A company want to use the APO applications DP, SNP, PP/DS and GATP in the future.

In which sequence would you implement these applications?

Thanks for feedback.

Hi,

There is no written down procedure for implementing any of the modules it depends on the business requirement

and the maturity levels of the Organization in handling SAP APO.

If organization is already on SAP ECC system the best thing to do is GO Live with all the models since then the

requirment gathering exercise and Blue Printing Exercise can be done in one shot and integration of each modules can be also done in one shot, this means that it reduces the efforts. However understanding of the APO system for the Business is a must

so that right fuctionalities can be selected in each modules to meet the business requirments.

Thanks,

Hi ael9999,

There is nothing like sequencing a module implementation.

You can start working on it parallelly.

You can create configurations planned at the same time

and the sequence will be required only during job

scheduling between each modules.
