Description of problem:
When importing Demand Forecast lines via the standard Data entity ‘Demand Forecast Entries’, whilst the standard entity includes a field ‘ForecastAllocationMethod’, which in customer case is ‘Key’, there’s no field in entity to define which key to use (which is a standard field available in table: Period Key))
Are you planning to add particular field for Demand Forecast Entries data entity in future releases?

This feels like a large omission from the entity. It is possible to specify a productallocationkeyid and therefore split a forecast quantity across variants and as this request states you are also able to say the forecast should be allocated according to a method of key with the forecastallocation method. It is not possible though to specify what that key should be as part of the entity.
