This page allows you to allocate resources that are constrained against the demand.
Before you start
Use the context selector dropdown on the top-right to filter the data displayed by selecting a product, customer, and scenario combination.
Use the Time Filter field to set the time period for data displayed in the charts and tables.
The table below the time filter shows the order of priority of all products by different customers based on Input Prioritization and Effective Prioritization. The table next shows % Demand Met based on the week you choose from the dropdown menu.
Demand Met v Demand Required
The graph displays how much of the demand for selected products has been met during certain timelines, and how much of it is still needed. It provides a visual, time period-wise overview of demand met, demand required, and % demand met.
The first table below the Demand Met v Demand Required table displays the weekly overview of the available constrained supply values.
The second table provides an overview of the graph values, that is demand met, demand required, and % demand met values in tabular form.
Volumes allocated by Customer Rank
The graph displays the ranking of the customers based on their resources consumption during a timeline. Higher the product demand, higher the rank.
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
Constrained Supply Available | Provides a detailed overview of limited resources available. |
Demand Required | Displays the number of resources needed in the commercial plan. |
Demand Met | Displays the number of fulfilled resources in the demand plan. |
% Demand Met | Displays the % of fulfilled resources in the demand plan. |
Additional information
You can assign a ranking to a customer to give priority for the constrained supply. Up to 20 different ranks can be assigned and customer with the lowest rank will receive the available supply first.
Ranks can be tied, or even left completely blank. In case of blanks, customer will be assigned the lowest unused rank.
In case of insufficient supply to fulfill the demand for a given rank, the supply will be proportionally allocated to all customers of that rank based on the customer's original demand and remaining available supply (after allocating to prior ranks).
