Documentation

Definition

The "valid to" date defines the end date of the artificial history used to forecast material/plant combinations.

Use

Before the "valid to" date, historical data of the artificial history is used to forecast the material/plant combination. After the "valid to" date, the material/plant combination's historical data is used.

Dependencies

During the automatic assignment of references, the "valid to" date is calculated using the validity period that is defined in the corresponding Reference Determination Schema.

The dialog program References for Materials without History suggests this "valid to" date as well. This date can then be manually overwritten.
