  1. If you define a reference material, the system accesses the historical data of the reference material up to the specified validity date. This makes sense, if no historical data exists yet for the specified material especially when it is a new material which do not yet has consumption history. However, the business decision of why a reference material is chosen for its consumption history as reference is not entirely easy to justify.
