DP Univariate Profile Questions

[Former Member]

Hi Guruz

SCM 5.0

We is using the statistical forecasting functionality of APO Demand Planning and setting up the Univariate Profiles in /SAPAPO/MC96B.

1) How does one determine the best forecast error thresholds for use in the Diagnosis Group (these are used for displaying alerts)?

2) If not using Strategy 56, how does one determine the best Alpha, Beta, Gamma & Sigma values to use?

Selecting a right forecast model and selecting the right values for weighting factors all depends on the demand history for the specific prouct. You have to anayze the past demand history and based on the analysis and the behaviour of the product Business has to come up with right analysis results.
