The control codes are used to define if forecast consumption should be controlled for a demand plan at sales order entry.
If a control code is defined for a demand plan, the system will check that the sales order quantity does not exceed the forecast limit for the demand plan period in question. If the percentage value that is defined in Check exceeding % for the code is exceeded, a warning will be displayed, or the order line will be moved to the next demand plan period.
You connect the control code to the demand plan using the DP control code field on the Work with demand plan panel.
See Demand plan process for an overview of the process steps and the order in which these actions should be taken.
