Viewing Forecasts


By default, according to the position hierarchy, all participants in a forecast series report their forecasts to their manager. However, if a forecast-specific hierarchy is defined for a forecast series of type My Revenues - Indirect Sales, then users can roll up and submit forecasts to managers that are outside their reporting hierarchy.

NOTE:  A forecast-specific hierarchy can only be defined for a forecast of type My Revenues - Indirect Sales.

The Forecast List screen displays a list of all forecasts where the user is a participant or the user has a subordinate. When viewing the list of forecasts, it is possible to filter on a number of options. To view the list of forecasts, complete the steps in the following procedure.

To view a list of forecasts

  1. Navigate to the Forecasts, then Forecast List screen.
