Symptoms

Assemble-to-Order (ATO) Model forecast is loaded into system and demand for the components is exploded.  When viewing the forecast demand for a Phantom item that is a child of the ATO Model, it is not offset by the ATO Model's Processing lead time.

Bill of Material

ATO Model - Qty 1 with Processing Lead Time of 1 day
  |
  Phantom Item - Qty 1

On 24-JUN-2024, there is a forecast for 1 of the ATO Model. The forecast is loaded and exploded, but when viewing the forecast for the Phantom Item, the forecast is on 17-JUN-2024.

The expectation is that the Phantom Item have a forecast (which it does), but the forecast for the item should be offset by the models Processing Lead Time of 1 day.

The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Set up model bill of material similar to this:
   
   Model Item - Qty 1 / Processing Lead Time 1
      |
      Phantom Item - Qty 1
   
   
2. Create a forecast in weekly buckets for the model item.
3. Run the Planning Data Collection.
4. Run the Plan.
