If I am using Seasonality, should I be Calculating and Applying the Replenishment settings at the beginning of each period in the season calendar? Or does the system automatically update them when that date is reached?

The seasons have fixed date ranges, so it is set manually when creating the season under “Replenishment Seasonality”. So no auto update of them.
The seasons for one seasonality should not intersect. When you select the start and end dates for each period, these dates should belong to one year.
The system uses seasonality settings for forecasting as follows:
Thank you. To confirm I understand: For an item that has seasonality set, when I am Preparing Replenishment, will the system automatically change the Quantity to Process based on the factor assigned to the date I am in?
As it is calculating the average daily sales value using the factor, it thus will work out how much you need to cover the average daily sales for the lead time days of the stock item. It also adds if it needs to get stock back up to max / fulfill demand at the time. So it will change your quantity required calculation as the factor is applied yes. Its like saying look at the last 3 months sales to get my daily sales, but then apply a factor to it for the next 3 months season as it is a seasonal product.
Thanks very much.
