At the supply site, use Intersite Demand Confirmation (12.17.1) to confirm all, or portions of, the quantity, due date, ship date, transportation code, and in-transit site for an intersite request. If any part of a request has been confirmed, DRP plans using the quantities and dates confirmed by the supply site. If an intersite request has not been confirmed, DRP processes it for the quantities and due dates automatically generated by the system.

Intersite demand at the supply site appears as the Gross Reqs value in the Master Schedule Summary and is treated as independent demand. You can adjust the demand quantity during demand confirmation. The remainder of the process at a shipping site involves transportation planning, order aggregation, and shipping.
