Need to account for a future promotion or upcoming event that could increase workload? You can add adjustments to your forecast to reflect changes that aren’t captured in your historical data. You can also use adjustments to remove certain data from your forecast.
Note Adjustments modify only the forecast data, not the underlying workload. To update the workload data, see Adjust Your Workload Data.
