Select a template
The fastest way to create a forecast is to use a template. The template that you select defines how the forecast groups data.
On the Forecast configurations page, select one of the following templates:
- Org chart forecast: Rollup columns and projections are based on your organization's reporting structure. This template uses the Manager field of the User entity for the hierarchy.
- Product forecast: Rollup columns and projections are based on the product hierarchy.
- Territory forecast: Rollup columns and projections are based on the sales territory hierarchy.
