The demand driven packaging material planning allows the analysis of actual and future requirements for packaging material resulting from the determination of the demand situation of relevant documents (SD, MM, PP) and from the decomposition of related packing instructions. The determined requirements of packaging material are compared with the stock situation of packaging material. This comparison enables a contemporary and, with respect to its’ amount, equitable planning of the required packaging material. The results are potential savings relating to packaging material with respect to (returnable packing) leasing, storage space, costs for potential repacking and payments resulting from wrong packaging.
