To create forecasts for new articles (articles without history) in SAP F&R, you export reference modules to SAP F&R using this interface. This function is intended for use by replenishment planners.
You can export the following data to SAP F&R:
· The header and item data for the reference modules (data information for several articles)
· Assignments of reference modules to an article
A reference assignment can be transferred to SAP F&R without further manual processing.
The program reads the data and transports it to SAP F&R. The assignments are transferred to SAP F&R via the location product interface, and the reference modules via the reference module interface.
You start the transfer using the program FRE_SEND_REFERENCE. To schedule the data transfer periodically, you define a background job.
To transfer the reference modules, on the SAP Easy Access screen, choose
Logistics à Retailing à Distributed Retailing à F&R Integration à Main Data Transfer to SAP F&R à Transfer of References for Articles Without History.
