Missing forecast demand

One of the periodic demands generated in our ForecastSales table for 10/6/2018 quantity 300 does not show as a demand after we run Forecast planning. The total demand was split in 17 day segments which resulted in the 10/6/2018 one being on a non working day. The following one from 10/23/2018 shows up correctly. This forecast is used to generate planned transfer orders with a lead time of 3 days from our production warehouse.

When the demand is moved to the next week it shows up again.

Any idea of what is causing this problem? As with MRP we would expect the 10/6 demand to be moved to 10/5 and show up.

Is there anything that could be hiding the demand?

Thanks

Konrad

Problem solved. Old mod from AX 2009 that suppressed duplicate demand when an order with the same parameters as the forecast sales record was encountered created the issue. Working as designed.

Further info. The quantity 300 is the only one that drops the demand. Using 299 or 301 shows the forecast and MRP being moved to 10/5 from 10/6. I do not see any quantity 300 references anywhere.
