Hi Bala,
ICH is the supplier collaboration element covering tigher collaboration processes,
like forecasting, kanban, order management; it supports the production process,
but for e.g. does not cover invoicing. it is different than SUS, which focus
on small suppliers without any systems inhouse and only offers order managmt.
It depends on the environment, if you need SUS or / and ICH.
In longterm the SUS functionalities are planned to be integrated into ICH forming
a new product called Supply Network Collaboration offering all collaborative
processes.
- ICH is part of the SCM Suite as well found under Collaboratio Suite
- Installed on a separate Box; from SCM perspective it also makes sense to
separate APO and ICH; nevertheless SCM is a one client environment, like BW
- Documents are available via SCM and Solution Manager; search in the
Marketplace
Thanks,
Claudia
