IB&O is an SAP ECC and S4 HANA add-on that analyzes demand, supply and inventory in your network. Depending on your selected criterias (region, location type), your planning horizon and your sourcing rules (priority, inventory strategy), IB&O balances your stock in your network. The solution generates What-if scenarios to identify possible actions you may take to balance your inventory. Once the scenario is approved, IB&O generates transportation orders (STO/STR).
