Scheduling forecast in foreground vs Background

[Former Member]

Dear Sir

In my company we always schedule the forecast by a background job (using demand planning in background option )

I was told that this helps in maintaining aggregation level (which can be set in while defining the job).Our planning books doesn't have any icon to schedule forecast in foreground .Where can I enable the same.

Hi Radhakrishnan,

In transaction /SAPAPO/SDP8B - Define Planning Book, select

your planning book under edit mode and in planning book

tab in navigate to view field, check the relevant forecast

settings to view when opening planning book

Hello Radhakrishnan,

You must also have the forecast profile correctly maintained in transaction /sapapo/mc96b.

For example, if you want to use univariate forecast, you must assign an univariate forecast profile

to your master forecast profile, in order to see the 'univariate forecast' icon in /sapapo/sdp94.

Best Regards.
