Measures for End Item Substitution and Supersession

This topic lists the measures that store data for end item substitution and supersession in replenishment plans.

All measures support the Organization, Product, and Time dimensions.

The measures are a part of the Default Replenishment Planning Catalog and Incremental Replenishment Planning Default Catalog. If your replenishment plan is using other measure catalogs, ensure that you add these measures to the measure catalogs. Also, add these measures to your tables and graphs.

In a replenishment plan that's enabled for incremental planning, when a day is added to the planning horizon, these measures are populated with the null value for an item-location combination that doesn't have a change in net demand or supply.

This table lists the measures for end item substitution and supersession:

Measure	Description
Initial Excess for Substitution	Excess quantity of the substitute item or supersession item that's initially available for substitution or supersession.
Initial Shortage for Substitution	Shortage quantity of the demanded item that can be initially met by the supply of the substitute item or by the supply of the supersession item.
Substitute Demand	Total quantity of the demanded item that's substituted by the supply of the substitute item or superseded by the supply of the supersession item.
