How to have time phased planning percentages
Summary:
Customer is having CTO products, which are sold through out the year. But certain options depend on season and have seasonal demand. It is expected that demand management should calculate the planning percentages based on the historical data for each month based on the options shipment history and generate the planning percentage.
But currently we are seeing that the planning percentage are same for all the months in future, while the shipment/booking history varies month by month.
For e.g. Model A has two options- Option1 and Option2. the Option1 is sold more during the first qtr of year, but less towards the year end. The same is reflected in the shipment history data. Now it is expected that the historical planning percentage calculated should be higher for option1 during the initial months and then subsequently reduce towards the end of the year.
