What SAP Business Network Planning Collaboration is

SAP Business Network Planning Collaboration is a paid, web-based cloud service for coordinating planning with suppliers. Its stated scope covers forecasting, capacity planning and manufacturing visibility. The plan includes one production tenant and one test tenant of SAP Business Network, providing separate environments for live and test use. Demand planning and supplier management are supported. Logistics features include dock door scheduling, carrier self-service, appointment requests and driver check-in, with both supported load types available. SAP also lists a separate Business Network Freight Collaboration plan. That plan is billed in annual blocks of 10,000 documents, with contract terms from one to five years. Pricing for both plans is available on request. The service is available on the web and deployed in the cloud. SAP, the company behind the product, was founded in 1972 and is headquartered in Walldorf, Germany.
