Selecting Members
Use Member Selection to determine which form members to select for prediction. Full predictions, the default, choose all members on the form. "Bottom-up" predictions choose members at the lowest level of the hierarchy for forms built to aggregate results up to higher level members. "Top-down" predictions choose members at the highest level of the hierarchy for forms built to push results down to lower level members. Optionally, you can skip any read-only members.
Note:
Full prediction as a default is available in Predictive Planning Release 11.1.2.4.000 Patch Set Update (PSU): 11.1.2.4.400 (21548453) only. For information on the 11.1.2.4.400 changes and on updating to 11.1.2.4.400, see the Predictive Planning 11.1.2.4.400 Readme and My Oracle Support. Without this patch, Predictive Planning uses "Bottom-up" predictions by default.
Note:
When running predictions, users can override these settings using the Change Member Selection button on the Run Confirmation dialog. Its settings are similar to the following but they apply only temporarily to the current Predictive Planning session.
