Categorization
• Categorization of products is about defining the delivery time and
the delivery service for each of the products in the product
program. Categorization of the products is made from a
categorization of the customers and the products they buy.
• Subsequently the categories for the finished products are then
linked to the semi-finished and the raw materials respectively, and
later also to suppliers
• With categories at each level it is possible to create a very
efficient supply chain
• Product Categorization gives a superb basis for implementing
Lean Manufacturing, by clearly showing the product priority when
it comes to flow, inventory, planning, etc.
5
ABC Approach
• One of the common practices for categorizing materials is the
ABC approach
• In principal, the ABC approach says: Categorize your materials
according to the following simple rule:
A – “A” materials are the most expensive and critical materials
in your organization
B – “B” materials are the less expensive, less critical materials
in your organization
C – “C” materials are the non-expensive, non-critical materials
in your organization
6
When to Use CBP
• CBP deals primarily with the “C” materials that we purchase
• One of the purposes of CBP is to create Purchase Orders as
automatically as possible in order to reduce manual intervention
in the purchase process
• It is possible to use transaction MIBC (ABC Analysis for Cycle
Counting) as a basis for ABC categorization. However, it does not
take into account the criticality of the material, and therefore
manual work must still be performed.

General
• Reorder point planning should be used with relatively constant
consumption materials
• If the material’s consumption is not constant over time, this
method might result in excess stock (the need to keep high safety
stock) or stock shortage (fluctuations)

Planning Based on Past Consumption
• Planning based on past consumption should be used for
materials whose future behavior can be predicted by their past
consumption
• Materials with short life cycle would therefore probably not be a
good choice for planning using this method
• Good candidates for planning using this method might be
materials with relatively many consumption periods

General
• Time-phased planning should be used for materials that are
delivered on specific dates
• This method works similarly to reorder point planning — the
difference is that specific delivery dates are taken as parameter
• To run this method, a specific calendar must be created and
maintained

How Time-Phased Planning Works
18
Methodology
Time-phased planning works almost the same way as reorder
point planning, only with specific GR dates

7 Key Points to Take Home
• Categorize your materials
• Use CBP for your “C” components
• Materials with relatively constant consumption should be planned
with reorder point planning
• Materials with numerous consumption histories may make use of
forecasting to predict their future consumption
• Materials with specified delivery dates may use time-phased
planning
• Forecasting may be used also to calculate safety stock and
reorder points according to past consumption figures
• Creating a new MRP type can be useful to control customized
planning methodology as combination of “standard” methods
