Overview of Simulation Sets
Simulation sets provide a way to override key parameters coming from plan inputs. A simulation set enables you to modify item-organization attributes for testing purposes.
Use a simulation set to quickly change item-attribute values without having to recollect items. For example, you can test planning results by changing item lead times or order modifiers.
You can open a simulation set and use the Items table to modify some item attributes.
