- Support for exceptions control enables you to monitor and react to exceptions that occur in your supply planning processes, such as stock shortages or violations of safety-stock values or minimum days of supply.
- To make the process of supply control more efficient, you can merge several requisition requests into one purchase order, before their release, based on product and supplier criteria.
