You can view the Volume Planning card on the detail section of the Promotion Detail tab.
The card acts as a miniature of the Promotion P&L view. The Volume Planning card shows KPIs
that help the key account manager (KAM) view and adjust promotion volume to maximize the returns
from a promotion. The system synchronizes Volume Planning card KPIs with the Promotion P&L
view KPIs to ensure that any change in the value of one is reflected in the other.
Required Editions
Available in: Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise and Unlimited Editions where Consumer Goods
Cloud is enabled
To access the Volume Planning card, click
from the tactic
card. If the promotion isn’t in Edit mode, you can’t edit the Volume Planning card fields. The
system shows a refresh icon in the Volume Planning grid while it refreshes. You can edit the
grid when it’s refreshing; however, the system disables the Save & Refresh and Done
buttons.
The Product Description column contains a tree structure that shows the levels of the product
hierarchy. You can configure these levels in the Displayed Product Level field of the
promotion template. The system sorts the levels alphanumerically based on the Description 1
value in the language configured for the user.
Note The system shows
the product levels that you configured in Available Product Level along with the product
level, if no product levels are selected in the Displayed Product Level. However, if no
product levels are selected in both Displayed Product Level and Available Product Level, the
system shows the product level that's configured in the Promotion Aggregation Level of the
sales org along with the product level.
Both valid and invalid products are available to show and to calculate committed promotions.
For any other phase, the system shows only valid products and considers them for calculation.
This is applicable only for promotions with the condition-creation feature enabled.
If a custom calendar is activated for the sales org, the system shows columns for each custom
period that belong to the promotion instead of calendar weeks. The system shows column headers
in the Custom Period/Year format. The system populates values only for those weeks or custom
periods in which at least one day of the week or custom period falls under the KPI’s time
scope.
The value of the Total row depends on the Total Calculation Rule (for aggregation of weekly
values) and Aggregation Rule (for aggregation of values along with the product levels to the
KPI level) that are configured in the KPI definition.
If the Consider BOMs option is selected in the BOM Handling field of a promotion
template:
The BOM header products are shown with a collapsible arrow (collapsed by default). BOM
component products are visible when the BOM header product is opened from a collapsed state,
such that:
All products are assigned as product part to one of the valid BOM header
products.
No restriction exists due to KAM status or Account Product List for the BOM component
products.
If a BOM component product is excluded from the promotion as standard product, it's
still valid.
The VPC grid shows an additional column BOM between Product Code and Product Description
columns, with a bold check mark for all BOM header products and normal check mark for all
BOM component products.
