Introduction to Demand Forecasting in Microsoft Dynamics AX Part 1, 2, and 3!

Demand forecasting can be immensely valuable to a business organization. It supports the overall Sales and operations planning process for a business and can directly impact and help the downstream business operations. At the very fundamental level, demand forecasting can tell a business what they need, when they need it and what they anticipate/predict delivering into the market. And even beyond that, it touches other functional areas of a business like human resources, engineering, supply chain, distribution and financials for example. Therefore, businesses require tools to analyze information and anticipate changes that are necessary to make better decisions to support future demand. With Dynamics AX 2012 demand forecasting and master planning tool, businesses can take their sales and operations planning process to a higher level of sophistication. Similar functionality is also available in the NEW Dynamics AX.
