Understanding Address and Contact Information for Demand Records

You can enter address book and contact information that is unique to demand scheduling, and store this information at the demand header or detail level. You use these addresses to represent different types of parties. For example, a demand address can represent a buyer, a seller, a carrier, an expediter, or transit principal.

For each demand address you enter, you can add contact information, such as a contact person or general office expediter, and telephone contact information.

Note: In the Demand Maintenance (P40R10) processing options, you can use the Demand Header Addresses and the Demand Detail Addresses processing options on the Process tab to specify whether to automatically display the Demand Header Address or the Demand Detail Addresses forms when adding a demand header or detail record.

The system stores demand address and contact information in the F40R14 table. You can also cross-reference common addresses, such as plants or customer numbers, with the Address Book system, as applicable.
