To recalculate forecast
Read, Edit permissions on Account Forecasts
Forecasts are recalculated when you edit the growth metrics, or when you choose to only
recalculate based on existing growth metrics.
Open an account’s record and navigate to the Forecast tab.
Click Show Growth or Recalculate.
If you clicked Show Growth, you can edit the account and market growth percentage values,
and click Apply. If you clicked Recalculate, the process is immediately
triggered with the existing metrics.
Note If an account forecast is being recalculated and you click
Recalculate, it will only be recalculated after the in-progress
recalculation is completed.
The recalculation process derives quantities and revenues from orders, opportunities, and
sales agreements. It applies the forecast formula and the updated growth metrics from the last
recalculation date and updates the forecast.
You receive an in-app notification when the process is complete. To view the latest
values, refresh the record.
