Working with Root Cause Analysis
The Root Cause Analysis feature for the Replenishment Service is one cohesive evaluation strategy. The key concept is understanding where we are today and how we got here. For example, knowing what the forecast was at the earliest order point (where we were) and what the forecast is today (where we are now). Root Cause Analysis is a combination of configurable engines that generate reports based on a large group of parameters.
