MS - Forecast Consumption View

[jdblank]

Progression 7.6.100a - MS SQL

Hello all:

We're seeing some strange records in the MS Forecast Consumption View. We drill down on our current period to see current demand orders, and we are getting Order Types = 'XXX' with order numbers from out of nowhere and no customer numbers. I checked OE line, master schedule, inventory transaction, mr requirements, im order build, and shop floor detail tables and those records are no where to be found. Does anyone have any insight?

Thank you.

I don't know about order type XXX, but what items are you master scheduling and what order types are you merging into the MS?

We forecast our finished goods and merge into MS. We also merge CO's and SO's. All items are set to = 'G'. Thanks.

COs and SOs?

I think we're all set. These transactions are coming from an outside transaction and we need to fix. Thanks for the responses DG.

Actually, after further testing our data is coming in correctly.

For anyone that cares and future reference:

IM Transactions - Issues; these transactions actually consume your forecast in views and probably reports. However, it doesn't consume the forecast record in the msfrcfil table; it is strictly a view calcualtion.
