Supply chain
The supply chain covers all stages through which goods and information move from procurement to delivery to the customer. This includes suppliers, internal warehouse and transport processes, and handover to the recipient. In SAP Business One, the supply chain is relevant because it connects processes in procurement, inventory management and delivery, creating transparency around availability, timelines and material flows. Reliable control of the supply chain helps identify bottlenecks at an early stage, plan stock levels more effectively and handle variances in a traceable way, so that a company can see more quickly which stock is affected by delayed deliveries and which orders need to be adjusted in good time.
