When any other influence on producing plans changes, other than the price of the good, the supply curve shifts and there is a change (increase or decrease) in supply. A rise in the number of the producers of a good, a technological improvement, a fall in the prices of inputs, a rise in the price of a complement in production and a fall in the price of a substitute in production shifts the supply rightward from S to S1 as indicated by the rightward yellow arrow. This represents an increase in supply. A fall in the number of the producers of a good, a deterioration in technology, a rise in the prices of inputs, a fall in the price of a complement in production and a rise in the price of a substitute in production shifts the supply curve leftward from S to S2 as indicated by the leftward yellow arrow. This represents a decrease in supply. Table 2 below summarizes the influences on supply and the direction of those influences.

For operations planning, the outbound module allows creation of constraint-based production and shipment plans to synchronize supply and demand. For execution, the module provides the visibility and decision support to monitor and resolve problems caused by day-to-day disruptions to production, shipment and inventory plans.

The supply of a material is the amount the owners are willing to sell at any one time, place, and price. The supply of one material affects the production, supply, and price of other materials. For example, if waste paper is in short supply, then the cost of cellulose insulation, which is made of waste paper, will be relatively high.
