The Embedded Release Forecast supports a process in which a forecast owner sends forecast data to a forecast recipient. The embedded release forecast contains product demand information (planning demand) and/or product release information (firm demand). It is intended that the demand information be integrated in the forecast recipient's tactical build plan. The product release information grants the forecast recipient authorization to ship product. The authorization (shipment release) is expressed by either:

A ship authorization indicator, equal to Yes, for a specific line item (product) and forecast period
Defining a frozen time zone, which authorizes release of all line items (product) for the specified forecast period.

Either expression notifies the forecast recipient of the forecast owner's commitment to accept delivery of the designated product(s) for the specified time period. Typically, the forecast recipient is observing the migration of planning demand into firm demand.
