Redwood: Review Hyperparameter Tuning Results from the Planning Advisor

With the AI-driven hyperparameter tuning capabilities in Oracle Demand Management, you can automate the process of identifying forecasting parameter values to increase forecast accuracy.

With this update, you can use the Planning Advisor in Redwood to review hyperparameter tuning outcomes more efficiently. You can receive dedicated hyperparameter tuning notifications in the Redwood UI and review the summary for quick assessment. Your administrator can optionally configure a Redwood page that you can open from the Planning Advisor to view the details behind the summary.

Follow these steps to configure a user-defined Redwood page that you can open from the Planning Advisor for your hyperparameter tuning notifications:

Note: In this write-up, it’s assumed that you are modifying an existing forecasting profile that’s already been added to a demand plan. Also, it’s assumed that a user-defined Redwood page has been created with visualizations for analyzing the results of hyperparameter tuning.

In the Redwood work area named Supply Chain Planning, for a demand plan that uses automated hyperparameter tuning, select More Actions > View More to open the Actions drawer, and then select Forecasting Profiles in the Configuration section.

The Forecasting Profiles page will open on a new tab of your web browser.
