Summary Forecast Setup

For summary forecasts, the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Forecast Management system requires you to set up the information for detail forecasts and set up and define a summary hierarchy.

You set up the summary codes (40/KV) and then identify the constants for each summary code. These summary codes and constants define the distribution hierarchy.

To set up summary forecasts, you must:

• Define the hierarchy with summary codes and constants.

• Enter address book data, business unit data, and item branch data.

You must set up detail forecasts before you can set up summary forecasts.
