Introduction
Create and edit sales forecasts over a specified time period in order to help plan necessary purchases.
A forecast of demand for a certain customer is entered so that it can be included in the planning method and therefore in the calculations of Manufacturing Plan and the Purchasing Plan. A forecast is based on expectations of future demand, not on existing data. Therefore, once the actual information is entered in the application in a Sales Order, the forecast has to be deleted to avoid duplications.
