Modeling single Sourcing for group of customers

Question

Use Case - I have a group of customers from - state/province

I want model to pick only - 1 DC out of N DC ( i.e - all customers in that particular State/province -should get material from 1 DC (same DC))

N.B- I have - different drop size for each customers & also cost is different - basis DC & Customers.

Question - How can we model this case?

I am exploring the single sourcing - from customer product table & location product table

Hi Arvind,If you want single sourcing for customers, you need to use the single sourcing in the customer product tab. And if you want the model to make the same choice for a group of customers, you need to use {curly brackets} around the group of customers (see more about curly brackets here: https://scnavigator-manual.aimms.com/sc-navigator/Input_template/Group_elements/index.html)To get one particular product from the same one DC for all customers in Region1, your customer product tab might look something like this:(making sure you've created Region1 as both Customer group and Location group)If you want them to get all their products from the same one DC, then you also need curly brackets around a product group as well:
