Bob Smith (Oracle Corporation) and Kevin Creel (Agile Planning Group LLC) will jointly present this session to explain the new Oracle Advanced Planning Suite features introduced in Release 12. The session will start with a review of the major features by application followed by a deep dive into one of the most significant new capabilities, enhanced Distribution Planning.

Distribution Planning is a new plan type available within ASCP that provides specific capabilities needed to plan the distribution of supplies outward through the supply chain. These capabilities include fair share allocation, multiple inventory policies, circular sourcing, and more. This planning capability is broadly applicable to any clients that manage warehouse distribution of goods.
