Navigation attribute as selection criteria for automatic forecast model

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I have a requirement like this.

In Transaction /SAPAPO/MSDP_FCST2, I enter a planning area and click execute.

Then I create a selection (using selection management button). But here I am not able to see the navigational attributes as a selection field.

Could you please let me know how I could use this as a selection criteria?

Can I use the method SEL_CHANGE of the BADI /SAPAPO/SDP_FCST5 for implementing this?

Please suggest.

Thanks,

Suresh

Hi,

The automatic model assignment cannot be done at the Navigational attribute level using FCST2 transaction. I never tried the BADI you mentioned.

But we created the selection profile separately with navigational attributes and used them in the forecasting job. It worked properly.

Hi Manimaran,

Thanks for your reply!

I hope you could have created a selection using the Create Activity and assign activity to a job. And during this part, for assigning the selection to the job, we could use the selection created in Interactive planning - Tcode /SAPAPO/SDP94.

The problem is what if the planners are not given authorization for the creating the job or activity. And what if the planners do the model fitting for a product/location and he wants to exclude it from the selection.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Suresh
