Override the Default Value for the Multithreaded Process

After you've enabled multithreading for the measure disaggregation process for all plans in your work area or a single, forecast-enabled plan, you can override the default value of 90 days for the process.

Before you start

You may need to work with someone who has administration privileges to make these profile-related changes.

Here's what to do

  1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the Manage Profile Options task.
    The Manage Profile Options page opens.
  2. Click New.
    The Create Profile Option page opens.
  3. Create a profile option as follows:
    • Profile Option Code: MSC_DISAGG_PERF_BATCH_SIZE
    • Profile Display Name: MSC_DISAGG_PERF_BATCH_SIZE
    • Application: Planning Common
    • Module: Planning Common
    • Start Date: Current date

    Leave the remaining fields blank.

  4. Click Save and Close.
  5. For the profile option levels for the profile option, select the check boxes under the Enabled and Updatable columns for both the Site and User levels.
  6. Click Save and Close.
  7. In the Demand Management, Demand and Supply Planning, Plan Inputs, Planning Central, Replenishment Planning, Sales and Operations Planning or Supply Planning work area, on the Tasks panel tab, in Configuration, select Manage Planning Profile Options.
    The Manage Planning Profile Options page appears.
  8. Search for the MSC_DISAGG_PERF_BATCH_SIZE profile option code.
  9. Click the New icon.
    A new row appears for the profile value.
  10. Add the profile value as follows:
    • Profile Level: Select Site to set the value globally for all users. Select User to set the value for a specific user, in which case you must then select a user. User-level values take precedence over the site-level value.
    • Profile Value: Enter the number of days for processing in each parallel job.
  11. Click Save and Close.
