Changing the Forecast Results 

You correct the forecast results in the same way as you correct the historical values on which the forecast is based.

One method is to enter a new value in the Corrected forecast value column of the Forecast Results dialog box.

Alternatively, you can use the interactive graphics:

  1. From the Forecast Results dialog box, choose Interact.graphics.

    2. A business graphic and a statistics graphic appear. You can modify forecast values in the business graphic. The statistics graphic gives you an overview of the forecast and shows all the forecasted data. Thus, the statistics graphic provides a good basis for evaluating the quality of the forecast.

  2. In the business graphic, choose Edit ® Modify objects (analog).
  3. To change a forecast value, click on the relevant column, hold the mouse button down, and move the mouse until the item acquires the desired value.
  4. To adopt the corrected value(s) in your forecast results, choose Copy.

    5. A dialog box appears showing the revised forecast results.

  5. To copy the forecast results into the planning table, choose Copy results. You can make further revisions to your forecast results in the planning table.
