SNC - Useful or Not Useful?

Former Member

Does really SNC  will help organizations share critical information and sense variability in supply and demand on an almost real time basis, reduce overall, inventory across the supply chain, shorten lead time, and minimize

stock outages.

Disadvantages of SNC

  • Much maintenance is needed for SNC
  • Enhanced APO functionality can not be used.
  • Master data redundancy also likely
  • We need to create PDS / PPM in SAP SNC system also.

Looking forward to hear from you guys based on the experiences ?

Hi Harsh,

As rightly mentioned by Dutta, SNC is being used by organizations successfully more for supplier collaboration though, yes there are some issues related to data maintenance and some of APO functionalities are not supported presently, which you mentioned.

I believe SAP as already released its plan to answer some of the issues, and will for sure cover remaining ones in future.

Hello Harsh,

The tool has served us very well since we went live in 2008.  As previously remarked, the supplier functionality is all we use currently since the customer piece did not meet our needs.  With over 400 users from 200+ suppliers, it is an integral part of our supply chain systems.  Once we identified all the owners of the data for the system to operate correctly, the business processes we put in place has eliminated that issue.

Hi, agree with the comments above, it's required much more integration to other tools like apo, also the matter data to maintain sometimes seems redundant and requires additional training.

Hi Harsh,

Few of our customers are extrensively using SAP Supply Network Collaboration.

The focus is more on Supplier Collaboration rather than Customer Collaboration.

SAP SCM roadmap shows that in near future SAP SNC will be connected with APO for some fucntionalities ( DP, SNP).

Hi Giri,

What about SNC maintenance things, redundancy of data. heavy master data maintenance,

Its disconnection with advanced APO functionality.

SNC is not very userfriendly
