Demand Planning (SCM-APO-FCS)

Defines the time buckets in which data based on a given planning area is saved in Demand Planning or Supply Network Planning. A storage buckets profile specifies:

• One or more periodicities in which data is saved.
• The horizon during which the profile is valid.
• A time stream ID for data that is saved in buckets finer than days. The time stream must be as long as or longer than the horizon. It must not be shorter than the horizon.
• The number of days for data that is saved in a fixed number of rolling days at the beginning of the planning horizon, and after that in a larger bucket.

Weekly data that falls into two months is saved in separate storage buckets.
