Future demand horizons and demand (including forecasts) should available to be included in safety stock calculations. This feature is available for Kanban calculations and in many/most other Tier 1 ERP planning solutions.
Comments
This would be very useful. We have seen this requirement on two Pharma project. Pharmaceutical companies often have legal obligations to cover X months of future demand forecast as a safety stock in each month. We ended up customizing a job that creates min/max keys based on demand forecast, but it would be great if a standard solution can do this in the future.
