Locate Planned Orders and Per-Period Demand Views in Dynamics 365 SCM Master Planning
Short answer
BE Use the Net requirements form (period view) and the Planned orders form to view planned orders and per-period demand.
Question
Key Takeaways
The Net requirements page shows an item's requirements broken down by period (per the period template), while the Planned orders form lists all planned orders generated by a planning run.
To view planned orders created in a run and an item's planned orders against demand over user-defined periods, use the Net requirements form (period view) and the Planned orders form.
Common mistake: Do not rely on the Supply Schedule form (period aggregation of supply/demand, not the per-item net requirements) or Sequenced planned orders. Item requirement statistics is not the form for viewing planned orders by period.
Expert Analysis
Why the Answer Is Correct
The two information needs map to two forms. The Net requirements form (with its Period tab/view driven by the period template) shows an item's planned orders against demand over user-defined periods. The Planned orders form lists the planned orders that were created in a planning run.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
- Option A (Sequenced planned orders) is not the per-item period view.
- Option C (Supply Schedule form) aggregates supply and demand by period but is not the per-item net requirements view.
- Option D (Item requirement statistics) is not the form for viewing planned orders by period.

Community votes are split between BE and CE; BE best matches the two stated needs (planned orders in a run, and per-period demand for an item).

CCexamn 👍 2I do not think B is correct - you cannot see your "demand over user-defined periods of time" in the net requirements form - I will go with C - supply schedule form (also what Perplexity says)
