Symptom
You execute a Demand Plan and notice that the actual sales values do not match with the actual sales data from the system.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the work centre Demand Planning.
- View Demand Plans.
- Select the Demand Plan ABC (ABC represents the ID of your Demand Plan).
- Click the Plan button.
- Click the Planning Board Layout button and select Maximal Layout.
- Change the Function from Copy Actuals to Copy Statistical Forecast.
- Click on Run Function.
Cause
The system currently excludes the Third-Party Outbound Deliveries from Demand Planning which may cause a mismatch between the actual sales data in Demand Planning and the one shown in the Sales Order Volume report.
Resolution
This is the expected behaviour of the system.
