ORDER CONSOLIDATION & INTELLIGENCE FORECAST IN SAP B1

Another efficiency feature of the MRP functionality of SAP Business One is its ability to consolidate orders so that quantities are purchased in amounts that ensure the highest discounts. For example, if a significant discount were available for Lexmax memory boards when they are ordered in lots of 100, the MRP functionality will consolidate any needed orders for any Lexmax memory boards up to an order amount of 100 to maximize the discount. The Order Recommendation report is where you confirm the creation of production orders, purchase orders, purchase quotations, purchase requests and inventory transfer requests. You can adjust quantities, dates and vendors Using the Results of an MRP Run section earlier. Use the Form Settings to choose the consolidation options in the order recommendation report prior to updating.

SAP Business One version for HANA brings a feature called Intelligent Forecast. This forecast brings built-in models based on statistical calculations that help predict trends and seasonal factors inside your organization. These statistical calculations are: TESM (Triple Exponential Smoothing) and LRDTSA (Linear Regression with Damped Trend and Seasonal Adjust).

Using the power of SAP Business One on HANA, a selection is automatically chosen by the system and takes into account the best algorithm to be used. The result generated by the Intelligent Forecast can be used in the MRP Wizard. You have also the ability to leverage the what-if-analysis, by adjusting abnormal past transactions in order to have a better prediction for the future.
