Forecast reduction method vs issue safety margin

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 46

Hi everyone,

 I just found out that the forecast demand is not being considered in the master plan calculations because of the following:

forecast demand requirement date falls before today’s date because of a combination of the issue safety margins and the forecast reduction method = transactions - dynamic period. 
e.g. today’s date 15/10, demand date 18/10, issue safety margin =5 (Therefore demand required date =13/10)

I was expecting to have it calculated and possibly having a delayed date. 

Any thoughts?

Thank you
