Consumption and Demand Classes

You can assign a demand class to a forecast. When you create a sales order with a demand class, consumption searches for forecasts that have the same demand class. Consumption attempts to consume these forecasts first. If it does not find matching entries, it tries to consume forecasts that do not have a demand class.

For sales orders without an associated demand class, consumption attempts to consume forecasts that match the default demand class for the organization first, and then consumes forecast entries that have no demand class defined.
