Item Allocation key for demand forecast

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4,017

Hi All,

I have notice one thing while assigning the item to the item allocation key, that one item can be assigned to the multiple allocation keys within the same company. I believe once the item is allocated to any allocation key it should not be available for any other allocation key.

Can you please advise is it the standard behavior? If yes then it will double the forecast.

Please advise.

    Hi Imran

    Yes it is standard behaviour, if you dont want it to double the forecast dont enter the same data twice. It is there because you can differentiate between the dimensions, and I am guessing the handling of the item without was deemed not necessary, and the fact you can split the percentage you can have different keys that alter the percentage split of the allocation to see the impact on the demand forecast.
