Actual Demand

Planned customer sales orders and Synchro delivery requests that have a promised date that falls within the period.  Planned customer orders are those that are considered to satisfy projected demand or forecast.  They are entered with a Plan/Unpl Code of 'P' through Customer Order Maintenance or Sales Order Maintenance.  (Synchro delivery requests are always planned).  Sales orders are only included in this quantity if they will be relieved from manufacturing inventory or if they will be relieved from distribution inventory at the manufacturing warehouse and the Sales Order Planning flag (on the Warehouse Description File) for the manufacturing warehouse is Yes.
