Selecting the Output to Predict

Define the measure to predict for Advanced Predictions.

To define the output to predict:

  1. On the Historical Data page, if you haven't already done so, from the dimension list in the Define Model Scope section, click the down arrow Down arrow icon next to the dimension name for the dimension that has the measure you want to predict. The dimension is now listed in Select Output to Predict and Select Drivers as Input.
  2. In the Select Output to Predict section, enter a name for the measure, click the dimension name, and then use the Member Selector to select the member you want to predict.

    This measure is also automatically used as an input driver to drive the prediction. For example, if you want to predict volume, historical volume is automatically taken into account in the prediction.

Note:

No changes are needed on the Future Data page for Select Output to Predict.
