SAP F&R:: Forecasting at any level other than LOCATION/ PRODUCT- LOCATION

[Former Member]

Hi, I am trying to check if F&R has the capability to let me plan the forecasting process at any level other than Location-Product.

For example, I wish to execute a WEEKLY FORECAST only at the MERCHANDISE CATEGORY level, for all products defined under that MERCHANDISE CATEGORY. Is it possible to execute the forecast process this way? Please throw some light.

Thanks!

Hi Jonk, somehow the T-Code WRP1 does not work in my system. I get a system message informing me that the T-Code does not exist. Could you please suggest why and may be some alternative?

Thanks,

Vismay.

Hi Vismay,

you could use the mass_maintenance for location products and assign the forecast frequenca profile to all location products of a certain merchandise category (use merchandise category as selection).

Alternative could be (if you are interested to do the forecast calculation once a week): You can create a new forecast frequency profile with the appropriate settings (weekly forecast; weekday the calculation has to be done; recurrency = 1). Define this new profile as the default profile!

Best regards,
