Special Demand by Item

Master plan

Special demand is forecast demand for which it is important to administer a reason. LN considers and treats special demand as forecast demand.

You can view the special demand volumes by plan period in the Item Master Plan (cprmp2101m000) session.

LN automatically updates the special demand in the item master plan.

No master plan

If an item has no item master plan, you can use special demand as a demand forecast for order planning.

Note: If you update a scenario with the Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario (cprpd4200m000) session, LN deletes the special demand that lies before the start date of the scenario.
Note: You cannot create special demand for channeled plan items.
