Demand Management Hub - A summary of the activity
The "Demand Management Hub” tracks the material request from Planning till Closure. Through “Plan Materials” screen, Material Request can be planned through Purchase Request, Stock Transfer, Direct Issue or Make Work Order. However, the life of a Material Request in this screen ends once it is planned. Many a times, it is the responsibility of a Material Planner to track the Material Request till closure.
