Copying Demand, Supply or Inventory Plan

The following master plan fields (see the Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) session) can serve as source or target:

• Demand Forecast (items/channels)
• Extra Demand (items/channels)
• Production Plan (items only)
• Purchase Plan (items only)
• Inventory Plan (items only)

In addition to copying the field values, you can also modify these values by a certain percentage. For example, you can reduce the value by 50%, or raise it by 20%.

To copy field values:

1. Specify the scenario.
2. Specify the plan level. You can only copy data for one plan level at a time.
3. Select a range of plan items.
4. Select a range of planners. LN only takes into account items that belong to the selected planners.
5. You can specify a range of channels (optional). If you do not specify such a range, LN copies no (demand) data for channels.
6. Select a range of plan periods.
7. Specify the percentage that you want to copy.
8. Select the update mode ( Overwrite or Add To).
9. Select the source field and the target field.
10. Select the Nullify Source check box, if you want to delete the source values (optional). LN actually moves the values instead of copying them.
11. Select the Complete Update check box, if LN must update the master plans of the selected items (and channels) after the copying process (optional).
12. Click Copy.
