A system operating on at least one computer for displaying planning information
associated with a supply chain includes an enterprise model, a planning engine,
and a presentation interface. The enterprise model represents a supply chain that
involves a plurality of products and resources. The planning engine uses the enterprise
model to generate planning information for the supply chain according to one or
more specified constraints and one or more optimization criteria. The presentation
interface generates a first visual display for selected planning information. The
first visual display includes a cashflow report providing a net present value for
one or more products in the supply chain. Each net present value reflects revenues
and expenses associated with a corresponding product according to time periods
in which the revenues and expenses occur.
