Symptoms

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
Demand Plan is using Gregorian Calendar and using monthly bucket.
Forecast Spreading Calendar has only 1 working day each month.
So the forecast is published on 1st of month. If first of month is on a weekend or holiday then Supply Plan does not plan for this forecast.


EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
Supply Plan should plan for Forecasts that land on a weekend or holiday day.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Demand Plan using Gregorian Calendar in monthly buckets.
2. Attach the Demand Plan as a demand schedule on a Supply Plan.
3. Run the Supply Plan.
4. Check the plan results in Supplies and Demands and in Material Plan.
5. The Gross Forecast is seen on the 1st of each month, which are Off-Shift weekend days
6. No Supplies are seen to fulfill the Forecast demands.
