Abstract:
A multi-dimensional recommended order system generates recommended orders for configurable products. The multi-dimensional recommended order system generates the recommended orders based on a multi-dimensional demand and sales metrics analysis. The multi-dimensional recommended order system determines the recommended order for each product configuration with a goal of moving a future supply mix of complex products to an optimized target supply mix. The recommended order can be generated and evaluated based on demand analysis of not only configured products but also based on analysis for demand of particular product dimensions. Thus, the system determines a recommended order for each configurable product by minimizing imbalances between future supplies and target supplies of product configurations and future supplies and target supplies of dimensions of the product configurations.
