External Forecast Upload at Monthly level for Supply Planning

in Supply Chain Planning and Collaboration 3 comments

Summary:

We are uploading external forecasting using FBDI. But I observed that external forecast does not provide monthly level upload. Customer has provided monthly level forecast for 1st of the month for each product. I loaded this data with bucket type in FBDI as period. Since the period start data and month start date are not in sync, the forecast inconsistent.

In below case the data uploaded is as (records for same date are repeated because forecast is uploaded for two customer sites). 1st of May, total forecast should be: 1458282+91000=1549282. But I do not see this forecast in the gross forecast for May. Similarly, the gross forecast for 31st May in the plan is sum of (1st June and 1st July Forecast numbers). While the forecast from 1st of August is presented in the period starting from 05-July.
