We have encountered a Total Demand number (for the 3rd party WH) that does not match what we think is the total demand for that warehouse (or at all). A BAQ on PartWhse for the part reveals that the value is the value of SalesDemandQty. What we cannot figure out is how this value is calculated.
Purchase Advisor shows:
• Main warehouse: 13,000
• 3rd party WH; 86,500
The Main warehouse demand matches Order 1 and Order 3, which will be drop shipped.
Order 2, which will be shipped from 3rd party WH, is for 36,000.
Time phase shows no other activity (but includes the drop ship PO for Order 3)
There is no forecast or job-related demand for this part. How is the demand number calculated?
Thanks!
