Building Models

Supply Chain supports various methods to build your supply chain models including:

Model Building - Use this streamlined Cloud-based model building workflow to create models using data from the Decision Data Model (DDM). This workflow provides a quick start for modeling. It enables repeatability and faster model building using the most current DDM data. Model building currently supports Greenfield Analysis and basic Network Optimization distribution models, with additional Network Optimization capabilities and other use cases coming in future releases.
Import Data - You can import individual Input Tables tables or multiple tables (both Input and Output) from Excel spreadsheets (.xlsx) or comma separated value (.csv) files.
