To help you identify recent changes in value to a forecast, changes within the last 7
days are highlighted in the forecast summary. As a sales leader, you don’t want to be caught
unaware of changes in your team’s forecast. Choose to show week-over-week changes for each
forecast category so that you can adjust your sales and forecasting strategies
accordingly.

Important To see forecast changes, work with your Salesforce admin to ensure that
historical trending is enabled for forecasting items.
When the historical trending data is ready, on the forecasts page, the forecast rollup values
shown in the forecast summary that have changed in the last 7 days are highlighted with red and
green arrows. Hovering over the field shows the changes and when the value was last updated.
After the historical trending data is ready, go to the Forecasts page.
From the gear icon, select Show Changes in the Last 7 days.
The forecast rollup values that have changed in the last 7 days are highlighted with
green up arrows for increases in values, and red down arrows
for decreases in values.
To see the details about what’s changed, hover over the forecast value.
