Definition

  • The quantity of units that a customer node will consume in a scenario.  This parameter is set by customer and product and a customer can have multiple rows of demand, even with the same product.


Adding Demand

  • Left-click on a customer and open the inspector on the right-hand side of the screen. Then, select "+ New Demand" which will create a new row of demand for a customer. You can then choose which product the customer will have demand for in addition to the amount and shipment size of that product for that customer. 




Modeling Tips

  • You can upload demand in a .xls file with sheet name "Demands" and column names -> [Customer Name, Amount, Average Order Size, Product]. Here, "Average Order Size" is an optional column.
