negative forecast release to snp

[Former Member]

Hi,

we have a requirement to be able to release negative forecast values from dp to snp, i tried this out using the standard transaction sapapo/mc90 but whenever i release negative forecast values it zeroes it out in snp. Though we get a message that negative forecast values zeroed out.

Is it possible to release negative forecast values to dp, if yes how?

Thanks

As far as i know, You cant release negative forecasts into SNP by MC92

This converts the Time series to Order Series Data. There cant be a negative Forecast in SNP . Forecast is already a negative requirement. So a negative forecast is the equivalent of a reciept

Why do you need negative forecast in SNP. If its for display purposes use TSCOPY and copy to a time series KF in SNP planning area.

Else, using some mechanism, Filter out the Negative forecasts and make it absolute values and pass it on to SNP as Planned orders instead of Forecasts (you can change the order type when you release forecast from FA to something that is planned orders) you can pass the non-negative as forecast.
