What Is Supply Chain Planning in Biznsbook?
Supply Chain Planning is an optional ERP add-on that brings demand forecasting, inventory optimization, S&OP, and supplier collaboration into the same system as your items, warehouses, and purchase orders — without a second planning suite.

- ✓Two clear tiers — Demand & Replenishment Pro, plus optional Enterprise Supply Chain Optimization.
- ✓Explainable math — SES / DES / Holt-Winters / Croston’s with per-item best-fit backtests — not opaque ML.
- ✓Human-in-the-loop — planners Action or Dismiss suggestions into requisitions or stock transfers.

Built for Operators, Not Slideware
Additive licensing, explainable methods, and human control — designed for mid-market teams.
Native ERP Data
Same items, warehouses, POs, and stock transfers — no duplicate master data or second planning database.
Explainable Forecasts
Statistical methods with backtests so planners can see why a method won — not an opaque ML black box.
Human-in-the-Loop
Action / Dismiss on suggestions; no silent auto-POs from optimization or DDMRP engines in v1.
Additive Licensing
