Use of DSiM with APO Demand Planning

Former Member

I am working with APO Demand Planning, within which we run statistical forecasts based on sales history.

If we introduced DSiM into our landscape, how would this fit with APO DP?

Would we use DSiM to consolidate and cleanse sales history, and then pass this to APO DP for stat forecasting, for example?

Or would be use DSiM for statistical forecasting as well, and pass such forecasts to APO DP?

Thanks for any advice on this...

Hi Bob.

You got it right in your first statement… DSiM collects, cleanses and harmonizes demand data.

APO (and other SAP planning tools) then use this data for downstream processes such as forecasting. 

The following white paper provides some detail about integration between APO and DSiM:
