Consumption Cycle Processes

Here’s the sequence of demand consumption cycle processes:

1. The customer participant uploads new or updated consumption history to the demand collaboration application.
2. The enterprise participant reviews the uploaded consumption history.
3. An enterprise-scheduled process synchronizes customer demand with the demand management application.
4. An enterprise demand planner factors the consumption history into the demand planning decision process.
5. An enterprise-scheduled process starts a new cycle.
