The demand history is the basis for forecasting and the stocking decision. Therefore the capturing of the demand history is the first step for service parts planning. The sales history is loaded from mySAP CRM™ (or for test purposes from a flat file) using the SAP BI™ data staging process. During the upload the data is processed in order to fit the specifics of service parts planning — e.g. an aggregation along the BOD is performed and other steps which are explained in chapter 3.2.2. The demand history is stored both on item level (in the ODS object 9ARAWDAT) and on aggregated level (in the info cube 9ADEMAND).
