Forecast job execution

[alex_alex85]

Hi,

I needed to setup regular job for forecast execution. Program RMPROG00. It should be run once per month.

Forecast view on material master: Forecast model - S, period indicator - M, Hist. and Forecast periods - 12, Initialization - X. 

-----------------------------------------

When I ran it first time, the forecast values were calculated correctly.

When I ran it second time without changes any parameters, it is not executed at all.

--------------------------

The question is how to setup regular job?

One moment: after the first run indicator "Initialization" was removed. Without this indicator it is not calculated. But we can not every month update this indicator for bunch of materials every month.

Kind regards,

One of possible solution I found is to create Forecast Profile with fixed value "Initialization = X". And assign it to material master so that it always has "X".
