Siebel Forecasting Guide > Forecasting (End User) > Updating Revenues from a ForecastUpdating revenues from a forecast allows a user to update live revenue records with the current forecast updates. This eliminates a number of steps. Updating revenues from a forecast only applies to forecasts with details. After a user (manager or subordinate) edits the Adjustment field, that user can update the revenues in the Revenue screen by selecting the Update Revenue Item menu option. The Revenue field in the Forecast Detail record is then updated with the total of the adjustment and the previous revenue value, and the Adjustment value is reset to zero. Managers can update their own revenues and a subordinate's revenues under the following circumstances:
Subordinates can update their own revenues for forecasts with a detail depth of Revenue Detail, Standard, or Summary. Updating Revenues Containing Custom FieldsAny custom fields added to the Revenue business component are not by default updated when a user selects Update Revenue Item. To enable the updating of custom revenue fields, the user must add a Revenue Field Map: Forecast Item Detail Field Name user property to the Forecast 2000 -- Forecast Item and Forecast 2000 -- Forecast Item Detail business components with a value of Corresponding Revenue Custom Field Name. For example, if a user has added the custom field Global Business Unit to the Revenue and Forecast Item Detail business components, the following user property must be added to the Forecast 2000 -- Forecast Item Detail business component: Revenue Field Map: Global Business Unit For more information about this user property, see Table 14.
