Enter Abnormal Demand

Explanation

This activity is used to define a customer order line as an abnormal demand. Meaning that the qty entered on this customer order line differs significantly from what is normal and it should therefore not be considered for certain planning activities.

You can define a customer order line as an abnormal demand by using one of the following alternatives:

  1. By enter customer order lines as abnormal from the Customer Order page.
  2. By enter customer order line as abnormal from the Customer Order Lines page.
