Unit:

The system provides six alternative units for the forecasts: Standard Inventory Part Unit, Inventory value, Planned Sales Price, Net weight, Part Flow Value and Period Price. The Inventory value and the Net weigh factors are retrieved from inventory part. The Planned Sales Price is taken from a cost set in costing, this can be any cost set from costing. The used cost set is determined form the Advance Server Settings entry : SalesPrice_CostingSet. The Part Flow Value is set on the forecast part, the period price is stored in a table called FORECAST_PART_PERIOD_PRICE_TAB. See also Advance Server Settings for how to change what is read into the system.
