| Demand Forecasting without an Item Master Plan |  |
| If an item has no item master plan, the only available type of demand forecast is special demand. You can enter special demand for an item or item/channel combination in the Special Demand by Item (cpdsp2100m000) session. Enterprise Planning supports forecast consumption: forecasts are gradually filled in (consumed) by actual demand. During supply planning, actual demand and nonconsumed demand forecast are taken into account. ERP LN automatically applies forecast consumption during an order simulation. In the Item Order Plan (cprrp0520m000) session and the Special Demand by Item (cpdsp2100m000) session, you can also manually perform forecast consumption.
