What is Demand planning?

Demand planning turns forecasts, promotions and business knowledge into an agreed view of future demand that purchasing and production can act on.

Forecasting produces a number; planning adds judgment such as a promotion, a new range or a supplier delay, and shares one version with buying and operations. Sales and operations planning (S&OP) is the regular meeting that does this.

How Stokrio handles it

Stokrio's demand and supply plan shows the forecast by month with overrides, so the plan reflects both the statistics and your own knowledge.
