DP-BOM and DP-CBF resources

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am looking for resources or materials where I can find more information on DP-BOM and DP-CBF apart from help.sap.com. Does anybody know any other resources like links, websites etc.Ironically the SAP material doesnot deal with these two topics, niether does the certification even though they are general cases in hightech and make to order scenarios.

Let me be clear, I am not asking for any copyrited SAP material here. My mail id is visu_venkat AT yahoo.com

Thank you.

Hello Visu -

Try taking a look at the Best practises of SAP specifically at DP for discrete industries.

Also a link for your help

Hope this helps for DP-BOM

in case you havent done so already, also check notes

484144 - Information on characteristics-based forecasting (CBF)

389641 - Background jobs in Demand Planning with CBF characteristics (actually it explains a bit about the concept of CBF)

also release notes for 4.0, 4.1, 5.0 versions and release restrictions might throw some light
