I am testing automatic forecast generation for a client that has been live for a year. I am testing in 2022 R1.
We previously uploaded manual forecasts since the client did not have any actual sales data to generate forecasts automatically. The forecast calculation is simple...10% growth per month. I am able to calculate the forecast however when I process the data, the forecast listing shows the items with an interval of One Time and they appear to be in addition to the old forecasts. The previous forecasts were entered with the interval Monthly. My questions are as follows:
- Is it possible to process the generated forecast with the interval of monthly and automatically update previously entered forecasts?
- What is the implication of one time vs monthly?
- There does not seem to be a way to easily mass delete old forecasts. I have thousands of lines as there are different forecasts by item by month and deleting one by one is not realistic.
