- Delegated to
- Enter a code indicating the category of users to which the demand plan should be delegated for revision. For example, if the demand plan is delegated to the item responsible, only the person defined as responsible in the Item file will have access to that item record in the demand plan. Valid codes are:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Salesman: This alternative is only allowed if salesman or customer is used as a hierarchy field. |
| 2 | Item responsible: This alternative is only allowed if item responsible or item is used as a hierarchy field. |
| 3 | Item planner: This alternative is only allowed if item planner or item is used as a hierarchy field. |
| 4 | SECUR: With this alternative you define the delegation access with SECUR’s object authority routines. If this alternative is selected you must also complete the Hierarchy level field. Note: Authority group DPLEVEL is used for this purpose. |
Click OK. The people to whom you have delegated the demand plan will now have access to the demand plan where they can maintain the forecast figures based on their particular knowledge and experience. When this work has started you can change the demand plan status to 3 (work in progress). Note: You can define restrictions in the system so that people only have access to the areas for which they are responsible. Exit the routine.
