Dear Nirmal
The [Global Available-to-Promise] (GATP) component uses a rules-based strategy to ensure you can deliver what you promise to your customers. Global ATP performs multilevel component and capacity checks in real time and in simulation mode to ensure that you can match supply and demand. You can also perform these ATP checks against aggregated, memory-resident data for even better performance. Global ATP maintains simultaneous, immediate access to product availability along the supply chain, so you can be confident that you can meet your delivery commitments.
Global ATP draws on a number of criteria to arrive at a commitment, including:
- Product substitution: If a finished product or component is not available, the system automatically selects a substitute using rules-based selection criteria.
- Selection of alternative locations: As with product substitution, Global ATP can source materials from alternative locations. You can also integrate this logic with the product substitution rules.
- Allocation : You can allocate products or components that are in short supply to customers, markets, orders, and so on. The ATP calculation and response take these allocations into consideration.
thanks
