• Describe different planning methods
• Explain the plan profile
• Performoverallanddetailedplanningontheinternalorder
• List the options for automatic planning
• Distinguishbetweenorderswithandorderswithoutintegratedplanning
• Describe Easy Cost Planning
Business Example
The IDES Group management is concerned with controlling expenditure.
