Balance Demand
Explanation
This activity is used to balance demand for receiver sites, when the available demand from the receivers are
more than the supply. When the allocation is a single source of supply, that is dedicated to a number of receivers,
the demand is balanced, by proportional distribution of the desired quantity to allocate at source to each receiver
site.
Prerequisites
- The total demand needs to be greater than the planned quantity.
System Effects
- The system will adjust all allocation lines to make sure that the total quantity to allocate is distributed
in a proportional fair way. The calculation can be given as follows: Allocated Quantity = (Initially Allocated
Qty / ∑ Initially Allocated quantity ) * Desired Qty to Allocate.
