Sales Forecasts View

Use the Sales Forecast View function to review existing sales forecasts for all inventory items. You can also filter the list of forecasts that appear to view those only for a specific item, location, or date.

Since the actual sales that you enter in Sales Order extend into the future for only a limited time, RP is only accurate in the short term without a sales forecast. When you provide a forecast of long-term sales activity, you allow RP to consider these sales when calculating future product availability. Use the Sales Forecasts View function to view this information.

To view sales forecast information, select Sales Forecast View from the Interactive Views menu. The Sales Forecast View screen appears and lists all items for which forecast data exists.

Use the data filter at the top of the screen to filter the forecasts, or leave blank to include all forecasts.

Since each item likely has several sales forecast records, the item ID repeats for each sales date.
