Observed Forecasts are missing when Demand Management Procedure is being maintained as ADRF - All demand reduce forecast,
Cause
Forecast goes missing for when Demand Management Procedure is being maintained as ADRF - All demand reduce forecast, However when Demand Management procedure is changed to All Demand consumes Current Forecast, Forecast is being shown
Resolution
As User selected option ADRF - All demand reduce forecast in Demand Management Procedure for product KLM, that means it can consume all the nearby forecast irrespective of time period. Hence forecast is not visible because the forecast is already consumed by different orders (Stock Transfer Demands in this case).
With option "All Demand consumes Current Forecast" at material->Planning->Demand Management Procedure: System checks if complete forecast is consumed within that period only or not. If not, remaining forecast is displayed. This is expected behavior
