Send Forecast to Supplier (cpvmi0202m100)
Use this session to send the forecast to the supplier that takes care of the supply planning in a vendor managed inventory (VMI) setup.
You can send the data by publishing Business Object Documents (BODs) or through other means. If you send the forecast to the supplier without using BODs, you must print the forecast in this session. After you print or publish the forecast, you can view the sent or printed forecast revision in the Forecast Revisions to Supplier (cpvmi0503m000) session.
If you publish or print the forecast using this session, LN records the date and time in the Date Sent field in the Forecast Revisions to Supplier (cpvmi0503m000) session.
