Before You Begin

Note:

This appendix is for administrators and other users whose security roles enable them to modify Planning forms.

Predictive Planning is a Planning feature that works within Oracle Smart View for Office to predict future results from historical data. It is easy to use but requires some administrative setup.

This section describes Predictive Planning requirements and explains concepts that are important when setting Planning form defaults for use with Predictive Planning. While factory defaults are available, forms should be set up with application defaults at a minimum; some forms might also require individual defaults.

For most efficient setup, review the topics listed at the beginning of this section first, and then set application and individual defaults (Setting Form Defaults).
