A forecast model names and identifies a specific forecast. You must create a forecast model before you can create the actual forecast lines.

You can set up a forecast model with two levels so that one model includes one or more other models, or submodels. This structure enables you to aggregate the individual forecasts. You must create a forecast model before you can assign it to be a submodel of another forecast model.

Create a forecast model

  1. Click Inventory management > Setup > Forecast > Forecast models.

  2. In the grid section, press CTRL+N or click New to create a forecast model.

  3. Enter an identifier and a name for the model.

  4. In the header section, you can define settings for the forecast.

Assign a forecast model as a submodel

  1. In the grid section, select the forecast model for which you want to set up a submodel.

  2. On the Submodel FastTab, press CTRL+N or click Add to create a submodel.

  3. In the Submodel field, select the model that you want to designate as a submodel and then enter a name for it.

Example

To set up a forecast model structure where the top-level forecast model, named Total, consists of two submodels which are named East and West, follow this procedure:

  1. In the grid section, create three forecast models: Total, East, and West.

  2. Select the Total model line.

  3. On the Submodel FastTab, create a submodel line, and then select the East model.

  4. On the Submodel FastTab, create a submodel line, and then select the West model.
