B. Use Advanced Forecasting to set the plan by part for each of the phone brands and alignorders by part number to the forecast with the orders.
C. Use Program Based Business to maintain phone brand demand and leverage actuals against different distributors or contract manufacturers.
Explanation:
Program Based Business is a feature of Manufacturing Cloud that allows manufacturers to track and manage the demand from their end customers (such as phone brands) and compare it withthe actual orders from their channel partners (such as distributors or contract manufacturers). This feature helps manufacturers to plan for future opportunities, optimize their inventory and production, and increase their market share. Program Based Business enables manufacturers to:
Create programs that represent the end customer demand for a specific product or product family over a period of time.
Associate sales agreements and orders with programs to track the actual performance against the program demand.
Use program analytics to monitor the program health, identify gaps and risks, and take corrective actions.
Use program forecasts to generate account forecasts based on the program demand and actuals. References: Program Based Business Overview, Create a Program, Associate Sales Agreements and Orders with Programs, Use Program Analytics, Use Program Forecasts.
