3343379 - IBP: How IO Forecast Error CV is calculated using method SDFE

Symptom

  • A new method for calculating forecast error CV was introduced in 2305, called SDFE (Standard Deviation of Forecast Error).
  • CV is calculated from SDFE as:  Forecast Error CV = SDFE / MAX( average (forecast) or average (sales) )*.
  • This document will detail how SDFE is actually calculated.

* the denominator in the CV calculation can be switched to always be 'average(forecast)' by setting the global configuration parameter SCAL_FE_CV_DENOMINATOR_ADJ to YES.  This is a technical parameter and must be set by SAP Support; contact SAP Support using component SAP-IBP-INV.
