Hello Experts..
I have below scenario when relasing forecast from DP to SNP.
DC 1 - Product A
------> Location 1
DC 2 - Product A
I have forecast for Product A at DC 1 and DC 2 which should be released to Location 1 When we release forecast.
Can any one explian if you have experieced such situation?

Hi Narasimha,
I guess you must be asking for a solution to consolidate your forecast and then release to a different location. Is that correct?
If so,
1. Define another characteristic in your MPOS to represent aggregated location i.e. Location 1 (say location)
2. Use the existing location characteristic to represent DC1 or DC2 (say sublocation)
3. Define CVC as Product, Location, and Sublocation
e.g. Prod1, Loc1, DC1
Prod1, Loc1, DC2
4. If you don't wish to aggregate, define CVC using same value for location and sublocation
e.g. Prod2, DC3, DC3
5. Assign the product and location characteristics as
Product characteristic = Characteristic of Prod1
Location characteristic = Characteristic of Loc1 i.e. Location
6. Generate forecasts at the detailed level i.e. DC1 or DC2
7. Ensure that forecast is correctly rolled up at location level i.e. Loc1. You just need to define a selection profile with just product and location characteristics to load the data.
Forecast at Loc1 = Forecast of DC1 + Forecast of DC2
8. Release the forecast to SNP and verify your forecast in SNP data view with characteristic assignment as described in # 5.
Thanks,
Rajesh
