About Forecasting System Preferences

The following system preferences are relevant to forecasting:

• Forecast: Auto-Forecast. Creates subordinate' forecasts to be used in a rollup forecast, if the subordinates have not created forecasts themselves.
• Forecast: User Server Task. Sends forecast processing requests to the Siebel Server for batch processing. If the value is False, requests are processed locally.

For more information about setting system preferences, see the chapter that discusses ongoing administrative tasks in Siebel Applications Administration Guide.
