Hi,
My question is around the use of the planning function, type Distribute by reference data, in a planning sequence.
I realise that the filter used in the planning sequence should not include the values for the fields to be changed !
For example:-
I want to distribute Sales of 100 USD for Category-Womens(A10), to SubCategories Women-Top(A11), Women-Bottoms(A12), Wowen-Jeans(A13) using reference data which is available on the lowest granural level.
| Version | Category | Sub Category | Sales | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plan Data | A10 | # | 100 | |
| Ref Data | A10 | A11 | 300 | |
| Ref Data | A10 | A12 | 200 | |
| Ref Data | A10 | A13 | 400 | |
| Ref Data | A10 | A14 | 100 |
Using the filter settings I want to restrict the data distribution to only A11, A12 and A13.
The problem is that when I mentioned the the SubCategory values in the filter, then the distribution function does not work. It works fine when I run it with restricting SubCategory values in the filter.
Filter restricts the data that needs to be changed, Thus, I do not understand why the planning sequence won't work.
(I cannot restrict the SubCategory Values inthe Planning function directly, because Sub Category is set a field to be changed).
