I vaguely recall a practice question that mentioned desired ending backlog, but I can't remember how it fits into the overall plan.

I think opening backlogs are crucial too, since they show what orders we already have. Maybe that's the key?

I remember we discussed how forecasts are important for production planning, but I'm not sure if they're the only thing needed.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to double-check the syntax and behavior of the different string methods to make sure I select the correct option.

Hmm, I think I've got a good handle on this. Supporting detail can definitely be viewed in the Smart View Add-in, and it's stored in Essbase. I'm not sure about the other details, but I'll give it my best shot.

I'm a bit confused by the information provided. Can someone help me understand how setup time and costs relate to unit costs? I want to make sure I'm approaching this the right way.
