Hello everybody,


I suggest a improved net requirement screen:


  • View of all items, not only 1 item
  • quick filters and functions to filter on specific transactions, like demand forecast, sales order etc.
  • Functionality to include/exclude specific transaction types from calculation. For example only include purchase orders, but not planned purchase orders. Or even more specific, confirmed purchase orders.
  • It would be helpful to have the historical demand/transactions available in this screen too. So you can compare future demand with historical demand. Historical demand could be summarized and displayed using the period templates.


It would be very nice if a functionality is added to show the demand coming from demand forecast, even if the forecast is on a higher level. E.g.: Forecast for sales item is exploded into 5 levels. On level 5 you have the raw material that you have to purchase. It would be great if the forecast demand is exploded and displayed on every level.


I am looking forward to your feedback.


Best regards,


Ben
