Example: Exploding Planned Orders

In this example, the system uses phantom processing to pass planned order releases from the parent (T1000 automobile) directly through to the planned order releases of the engine feature. The system uses the feature planning percentages to explode the planned order releases for the engine feature down to the gross requirements for V-8 and V-6 engines.

This diagram depicts how feature planned percentages are used to explode a planned order release down to gross requirements:
