 Recognition of Demand or Requirement
 Netting of requirements against available and Scheduled quantities
 Generation of Recommendations to meet these requirements
 Basic Planning Logic
Forecast - 25
Sales Orders - 10 1. Calculate Demand (25+10) = 35
On-Hand - 20 2. Net against existing supply (35-20) = 15
3. Generate Recommendations to additional requirement
A of 15 (Planned Mfg order for 15)

Qty Per = 2 1. Explode BOM (1A needs 2Cs)

On-hand = 7 2. Calculate Demand (15 x 2) = 30
B C
3. Net against existing supply (30-7) = 23
4. Plan additional Supply (Planned Mfg order for 23)

 Architecture
 Component based Architecture
– Each product of the APS Suite can be installed independent of each other
ex ASCP can be installed without installing Demand Planning
 Can be Run on a separate server from the ERP Server
– Planning for multiple ERP systems
– Eliminates any performance degradation of transaction systems
– Enables to run plans more often and more quickly
 Supports Centralized and Decentralized deployment Configuration
 Data Base Centric Architecture
– The Oracle Advanced Planning solution leverages all Oracle RDBMS
features to the full extent, like partitioning, multi-threaded snapshots,
locking, and leverages its unparalleled reliability and scalability, with
features like 24x7 support and hot recovery and backup.
 Architecture
 A common data model assures that all plans work of the same data logic.
– All plans (demand, inventory, and supply chain) are stored and accessed
in the database.
– Expensive memory is only used for planning runs and online interactive
simulation -
 Workflow-driven process automation
– Workflows can be tailored without impacting future upgrades and the tool
allows you to model your business scenarios, including exception
handling, in a convenient way.
 Last, planners and trading partners access planning data from any where at any
time at any place using the proven Oracle Internet architecture. Trading partners
can leverage secure Portals to get access to their planning data and to post their
forecast (customers) and schedules (suppliers) that can then be used in your
planning processes. They can also receive notifications and you can even
automate complete interactive processes leveraging the mentioned workflow
capabilities.

 Perform Setup and data Collections
 Talk about Data Collections Architecture and Terms like ODS, PDS, ADS etc..
 Talk about each of the concurrent requests also like snapshot delete worker etc..
 Setup Plan Parameters, Partitions
and Create Plans
 Talk about ASCP Planning Cycle
 Types of Plans like Manufacturing, Distribution etc
 Unconstrained, Constrained, Optimized, ATP, CTP, Allocated ATP etc..
 ASCP Planning Cycle
 Three-Phase Optimization Process
– Oracle supply chain optimization (SCO) uses
optimization techniques to determine sourcing
Scheduling Optimization decisions and generate time-phased supplies to
meet demand.
– The output of SCO is entered into the memory-
based planner (MBP), which creates production
and distribution plans at all organizations and
generates pegging information at all levels. In this
step, lot sizing and other nonlinear factors in the
explosion process can result in an infeasible plan.

– The third step uses a high-level scheduler (HLS)

MBP Explosion to load and repair the output of MBP to arrive at a
balanced and executable (feasible) schedule in
each of your facilities over the short-, middle-, and
long-range planning horizons.
 ASCP Planning Cycle
 Talk about all concurrent requests
– Diff between 32 bit and 64 bit
– Loader worker with direct load option
