Forecast Planning Using a Rolling Forecast

If rolling forecasting is enabled in your application, you can forecast using a rolling forecast.

If your administrator enabled rolling forecast, you can plan using a rolling forecast in addition to, or instead of, standard forecasting.

With rolling forecasts, you can perform continuous planning so you can plan beyond a one year horizon. Depending on how your administrator set up rolling forecast, you can plan continuously at a weekly level for either 13, 26, or 52 weeks, at a monthly level for either 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 48, or 60 months, or at a quarterly level for either 4, 6, or 8 quarters.

When your administrator updates the current time period, forms and dashboards are automatically updated to add or drop time periods to the reflect the updated rolling forecast range.

To forecast using a rolling forecast, select Rolling Forecast for the Forecasting Scenario user variable. See Setting User Variables. Forms are updated to show the rolling forecast time periods.
