    Enable the Equipment Module (and Where Used) to be able to link to BOM’s using just ‘DIVISION’, instead of DIVISION and DISTRICT_CD

    This is useful as it will allow client to filter through on materials issued against equipment at Division level and get the right count when they view that material against all District_Cd affected

    Provide an audit of demand in a similar way to how inventory audit works today to see an audit of supply.

    Whenever demand is created, cancelled, or closed by a reservation or schedule change the audit of that change should be written to a table. Could even use the existing YFS_INVENTORY_AUDIT table with the addition of a column to define whether a dem...
