What impact does enabling the Cumulative option have on the DockToStockLeadTime?

Enabling the Cumulative option affects the DockToStockLeadTime by adding it to the StartDate calculation. When this option is activated, the lead time becomes more comprehensive, taking into account not just the immediate or baseline lead time but also cumulative factors that may affect the overall timeline.

This means that the calculation for when inventory is expected to be available will consider all prior lead times included up to that point, which helps in providing a more accurate forecast and understanding of stock availability. By integrating the cumulative lead time into the StartDate calculation, planners can better manage the inventory flow and ensure readiness, avoiding discrepancies in supply chain operations.

The other potential options, such as ignoring the lead time, subtracting it, or keeping it fixed, do not accurately reflect how the cumulative option is designed to enhance the calculation of lead times in a way that can produce more insightful planning and performance tracking.
