The Problem It Solves

Who works with it

Planners and inventory controllers
Supply chain managers
Operations

Planners live between two failures: stock-outs that stop production or lose a sale, and excess stock that ties up cash and goes obsolete. MRP gives a plan built on parameters that were tuned once and rarely revisited.

JDE SupplySense™ watches demand, supply and inventory together, predicts where shortages and excess are forming, and recommends the reorder points, safety stock and expediting actions to correct them, before the exception report does.

What JDE SupplySense™ does

Predicts stock-outs and excess by item and branch from demand, supply and lead-time signals
Recommends safety stock and reorder parameters and explains the change
Flags open supply that will arrive too late for the demand it covers
Highlights slow-moving and obsolete stock before it becomes a write-off
Prepares the expedite and transfer actions for planners to approve

How JDE SupplySense™ works

The same governed loop as every Agent on JDE AgentOS™ (monitor, analyse, recommend, execute), applied to this Agent's job. Nothing reaches JD Edwards without a person approving it.

Monitor
Follows inventory balances, sales and work orders, purchase orders and MRP messages.
Analyse
Projects supply against demand per item and branch and spots the gaps forming.
Recommend
Proposes parameter changes, expedites and transfers with the reasoning.
Execute
Applies approved parameter updates; orders and transfers are created only on approval.

Works with

What Data It Touches

Reads: item balances, item branch parameters, sales, work and purchase orders, MRP output, lead times
Writes: approved planning parameter changes and planner work lists
Never touches: financial inventory valuation or costing

Security: Where the Data Stays and Who Can Access It

A governance layer routes every action through human approval workflows, and the action layer only executes JD Edwards transactions that have been approved. The connector layer is AIS, Orchestrator, REST APIs and the database.
