What type of data is stored in the HistoricalDemandWaterfall table for each customer and part?

The HistoricalDemandWaterfall table is designed to track both actual and forecast demand quantities for each customer and part. This dual focus enables organizations to analyze demand patterns, understand discrepancies between forecasted and actual demand, and make informed supply chain decisions.

By storing both actual demand (what has been sold) and forecast demand (what is expected to be sold), the table helps in assessing the accuracy of forecasts over time and refining future demand planning strategies. This real-time visibility into demand trends allows businesses to better manage inventory, production, and supply chain logistics to meet customer needs efficiently.

The other options, while significant in a supply chain context, do not accurately represent the data contained within the HistoricalDemandWaterfall table. For instance, independent demand records, supplier order records, and part inventory levels relate to different aspects of supply chain management and do not encompass the specific purpose of analyzing demand as outlined for this table.
