Static Data Import : DFU

DFU : Material:Ship-To@DC 

  • DFU (Demand Forecasting Unit) is the smallest Demand Management Unit which is Material x Shipto x Distribution Channel combination
  • DFU are automatically created in Dynasys based on :
    • Standard sales order (of past 3 years) from WP2 and PF2
    • All M3 reference sales order from PF2

Comments : If an order/M3 is registered for a new triplet : Material, Ship-To, Distribution Channel, the new DFU will be available at D+2 in DynaSys

  • DFU can be created manually for specific cases. To do so, it is mandatory to have the Material and the Ship-To available in DynaSys.
  • For prospects, Sales Force CRM is interfaced with DynaSys (Opportunity)


  • In APO, the DFU is the Material x Ship-To x Site (Shipping Site)

In DynaSys : the Main Shipping Site is an attribute of the Material x Ship-To

The Main production plant is also available. 

  • These data can either be updated in DynaSys directly or based on Actuals (history)

The Main Shipping Site is used for the Independent Requirement loading in SAP


  • The code and the description are imported. For some of them, we proposed a short description in order to be more readable in the tool. 

Ship-To Short Name includes the City and the Country.
The code are suffixed by “R” for WP2 Material/Ship-To, “S” for PF2 Material/Ship-To.

Unit of conversion SAPDynaSys target UoMExample

VKG (kg % sale)

310 VKG = 1000 KG in SAP


In DynaSys, UoM conversion = 1000 KG / 310 VKG = 3.2258 KG / VKG

LL

1000 L = 890 KG


In DynaSys, UoM conversion = 890 KG / 1000 L = 0.98 KG / L
