Forecast by Item Detail Report

The Forecast by Item Detail report shows the sales forecast for each item and the transactions that make up that forecast.

Note:

If you use the Advanced Forecasting feature, only estimates with the forecast type set to Most Likely display a monetary value in this report. However, estimates with forecast type Upside are visible and recorded in the Quantity Sold column. If you also want to display estimates with forecast type Worst Case, customize the report and add the field Maximum Quantity Sold. This displays the total estimated items sold across all forecast types.

For more information on forecasting, read Sales Forecasting.

Important:

If you customize this report by adding an additional column, ensure that you understand the type of information the new column will provide. Columns with similar descriptive headings provide different values. For example, the Est. Gross Profit (transaction) column provides results that are different from the Est. Gross Profit (Line) column. The Est. Gross Profit (transaction) column searches lines that satisfy the criteria and then sums the transaction level gross profit for each line. The Est. Gross Profit (Line) column searches lines that satisfy the criteria and then sums the line level gross profit for each line.
