Hi ​@AJWEE

Hi Kethaka, G.

Thank you very much for your support. From what I understand through the link, the demand model and the safety stock model are two distinct methods. Since we use the demand model and upload forecasts into the system, there’s no need to include safety stock.

Please correct me if I’m mistaken.
If safety stock is included in the demand model, does the MRP account for both the safety stock and forecast, thereby projecting a higher demand?
