You use this program to indicate the stock items for which you want to run various Inventory Forecasting and Inventory Optimization programs in SYSPRO.
You can either use a pre-defined selection set (see Selection Set Maintenance) or you can manually indicate the stock codes and options to use.
The window heading for the IO Selections program defaults to the name of program from which it is loaded. For example, when you run the Approve Draft Forecasts program, the IO Selections program is loaded with the title IO Approve Draft Forecast.
