Supply Planning

This Decision Flow takes supply chain inputs (such as current stock, orders, planned production, etc.) and chooses the best response to the situation (such as flag an emergency).

Solution components 

The solution consists of data calculations, a decision table, and a workflow that orchestrates the response generation.

• Variables are used to prepare data for evaluation:

  • orderPlusCurrent calculates the total potential stock by adding orderedStock and currentStock.

  • currentMinusPlanned calculates the projected stock availability by subtracting plannedProductionUsage from currentStock.

• A Decision Table Supply Planning evaluates the inventory and production status. It assesses scenarios such as "Stock with production is less than minimum" or "Stock with orders is more than maximum" to determine the appropriate course of action.

• A Decision Flow  Supply Planning orchestrates these components:

  • It first calculates the necessary variables (orderPlusCurrent and currentMinusPlanned) based on the inputs.

  • It passes these calculated values and raw inputs (like orderedETA and supplierDeliveryStatus) into the Supply Planning decision table.

  • Finally, it assigns the recommended actions (action 1, action 2, and action 3) to the output schema to notify procurement or planning teams.
