Procedure

  1. On the Generate Allocation Rules using RIS Data Screen, you can define allocation rule data, selection parameters for RIS data, and articles/merchandise categories.

    2. You use a site group to determine the sites to be used in the allocation rules generated. By selecting articles or merchandise categories (hierarchy levels), you define the maximum number of allocation rules generated.

    Using the selection parameters for RIS data, you can define whether the key figures should be used directly as the site quotas or whether the sites should be grouped together in allocation categories as per their quotas.

    Which key figures are to be used from the Retail Information System (RIS) is defined via the key figure category. Both planning data and statistical data can be used (controlled via the Version field).

  2. To start the generation program, choose Program ® Execute. If the system finds any errors while the allocation rule is being generated (statistical data errors, for example), a message will appear recommending you Goto ® Error log on the next screen.
  3. The program generates a list of allocation rules suggested by the system. The information contained in this list includes:

    2. The numbers of the allocation rules generated appear on the list.

  2. To change the generated allocation rule, choose Edit ® Edit allocation rule.
