Hi @MD-01071455-0,

In D365BC), Demand Forecasting is typically available through the Production and Supply Planning modules, primarily for items,not projects. However, there is no out-of-the-box functionality to create demand forecasts specifically tied to projects (Jobs module) in the same structured way.
That said, there are workarounds and extensions you can use to simulate project-based demand forecasting, or you can extend the system to support it more naturally.

Best regards,

Mohamed Amine MAHMOUDI

Hello,

In the standard BC functionality, there is no functionality to create project-based demand forecasts.

If anything, you could explore some vertical or development.

I hope to be able to help.

Regards,

Andres

Hope this might be helpful:

No, standard Business Central doesn't offer demand forecasting directly based on projects. You'll need a Microsoft Partner to help with customizations, integrations, or external tools to achieve project-based demand forecasting.
