Documentation
Definition
Demand is derived from the relationship mandatory course.
Use
If you use this method of demand determination, you specify that the demand for courses (number required) is based on the number of courses that have been flagged as mandatory.
The number of mandatory courses is calculated as follows:
The number of participants is divided by the optimum capacity of the course type. If the remainder from the division operation is less than the minimum capacity of the course type, the number of courses resulting from the division operation is not changed. If the remainder is equal too or greater than the minimum capacity, the number of courses required is increased by one.
If the validity of a participation record spans multiple periods, the course demand is distributed proportionally over the periods.
Example
The following booking data must be calculated for periods 1 to 4:
- 30 bookings 1st and 2nd period
- 50 bookings 3rd period
- 80 bookings 3rd and 4th period
The bookings are distributed proportionally over the periods.
Resulting Bookings:
1. Period: 15 bookings
2. Period: 15 bookings
3. Period: 90 bookings
4. Period: 40 bookings
This course type has a minimum capacity of five participants and an optimum capacity of ten participants. This results in the following calculation:
1. Period: Demand for 2 courses
15 bookings from period 1 are divided by the optimum capacity of 10. This equals 1, with 5 remaining. Since 5 is the minimum capacity, one more course is required.
2. Period: Demand for 2 courses
3. Period: Demand for 9 courses
4. Period: Demand for 4 courses
Note
If a participant has already made a booking for a course that is flagged as mandatory, this participant is not included in the demand calculation.
