Starting today, you can now easily apply multiple overrides on a demand forecast, eliminating the need to create and select from multiple overrides before publishing a demand forecast. With this release, you can apply multiple overrides, enabling users to apply overrides at different products simultaneously. When you make an override, the override adjustment is aggregated upwards in the hierarchy as well as disaggregated to lower levels of the forecast hierarchy.

In one unified forecast view, a demand planner can perform multiple overrides on a given forecast directly in a single table row view or directly on the forecast graph view using controls to increase or decrease the planner adjusted forecast. Once the override is applied, the impact can be viewed throughout the affected parts of the product hierarchy. The list of overrides applied at that level of the hierarchy can be seen which includes who provided the override, when the override occurred, the override quantity, and the override reason.
