|--|--|--|
|1|Which time granularity and horizon is used within DCM?|Demand and capacity data within DCM is distributed into weekly buckets. There is no technical limitation when it comes to the horizon. Typically data is shared starting from two weeks up to two years into the future.|
|2|I own a small company and do my planning in an Excel spreadsheet, can I still use the DCM Standard?|Yes, you can. While there are certain pre-requisites to DCM it does not restrict you to a specific planning tool.|
|3|Can I directly send my data from Excel into the Catena-X dataspace?|No, you either require a business application that supports Excel upload or use the open source [Simple Data Exchanger](https://github.com/catenax-ng/tx-managed-simple-data-exchanger-frontend/tree/main/docs/user-guide), as soon as it supports DCM.|
|3|Can I directly send my data from Excel into the Catena-X dataspace?|No, you either require a business application that supports Excel upload or use the open source [Simple Data Exchanger](https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/managed-simple-data-exchanger), as soon as it supports DCM.|
|4|I run my MRP (Material Requirements Planning) only once a month, can I still use DCM?|Yes, you can. DCM relies mainly on PUSH communication. Just PUSH your data to your partners after you have done your MRP. In addition DCM supports request for update, allowing you or your partners to request an update on demand and capacity data at any time. (e.g. before and after counting all your stock)|
|5|Is there any industry DCM isn´t suitable for?|The standard was primarily developed by the automotive industry, but is not restricted to it. The core business process of DCM applies to most industries.|
|6|Does DCM support sharing capacity and demand data between companies that are not direct business partners? (e.g. tier 5 and OEM)| The standard restricts data exchange to companies that are in a direct business relationship as customer and supplier (One-up one-down). By solving or reducing potential bottlenecks within those one-up one-down relationships, the problems that are forwarded to your further-ups and further-downs get smaller and smaller, with every tier-level. In order for everyone to benefit the most from this setup you should encourage your tier-n business partners to join the Catena-X dataspace as well.|
