SAP IBP overview

SAP Integrated Business Planning is a cloud-based planning tool that enables organizations to align their supply chain and inventory management processes with their strategic business goals.

Stay ahead of business disruptions using predictive analytics, what-if simulations, alerts based on real-time data and AI and machine learning.

Using predictive analytics and optimization algorithms, SAP IBP allows companies to forecast demand more accurately, identify potential supply chain disruptions before they occur, and optimize inventory levels. This results in more efficient resource allocation and reduced costs.

SAP IBP integrates supply and demand planning, response and supply optimization, inventory optimization and sales and operations planning (S&OP) into a single platform.

Boost Efficiency and Reduce Costs with SAP IBP and RunMyJobs

Automate the running of supply chain forecasting simulations as part of an inventory re-stocking report process. When you use our seamless pre-built connector for automation, simulations can be scheduled to run at any time for faster response times, preventing costly mistakes.

SAP IBP can be integrated with other SAP solutions like SAP S/4HANA Cloud as well as non-SAP systems for seamless data flow and a unified planning process across the entire business ecosystem.

While SAP IBP is a powerful tool, using it with the out-the-box RunMyJobs connector adds significant value by allowing you to easily schedule, execute and manage SAP IBP workloads any time and swiftly respond to fluctuations in the supply chain.

Enhance your supply chain planning

Integrating RunMyJobs with SAP IBP allows businesses to leverage advanced automation and optimized integration with non-SAP systems while ensuring scalability and compliance. This combination brings end-to-end orchestration and creates a resilient, efficient and adaptive SCM ecosystem under a single pane of glass.

  • Advanced automation and orchestration

    Automatically run supply chain forecasting simulations as part of an inventory re-stocking report process and schedule to run for a quicker response to changes in the supply chain, avoiding costly mistakes.

    The cloud-native architecture of RunMyJobs allows for scalable and flexible automation solutions that can grow and adapt to the business. Connect to any tech stack across SAP and non-SAP environments on-premises, cloud-based or hybrid solutions.

  • Cross-platform integration

    While SAP IBP offers integration capabilities within the SAP ecosystem, RunMyJobs provides a broader range of out-of-the-box steps and tasks to automate integration with non-SAP systems, cloud-based solutions and legacy systems.

    This is crucial for businesses that operate in a heterogeneous IT environment and need to synchronize their supply chain planning with other business functions such as finance, HR and sales.

  • Centralized job scheduling and monitoring

    RunMyJobs offers a centralized platform for scheduling, monitoring and managing jobs across various systems. This centralization helps businesses achieve greater visibility and control over automated tasks in a single pane of glass.

    SAP IBP may not offer the same level of centralized job management, especially for tasks that extend outside its primary scope.
