This page enables you to review all statistical forecasts at all levels of product and customer hierarchy for specified customer/product combinations.

You can specify the combination of customer and product data to display using the context selectors in the top-right of the page. You can also manually enter the reference ID if you know it. 

This card displays the forecast basis input from which the statistical forecasts are calculated. Input to stat is set in the demand application D1000 - Global Demand Parameters. When there's more than one forecast basis, for example:

  • When the demand forecast basis for customer-product A is set to Corrected History
  • And for customer-product B is set to Pure Demand.

The Mixed Data Check is highlighted in pink. 

Note: To make sure an accurate view of forecasts is displayed when you select a higher customer hierarchy level than customer-product at the leaf level, align the forecast basis for all customer-product combinations uniformly.

Set display parameters in the View Settings pane.
