Download reports from Forecasting screen
Forecast reports can be downloaded in Excel format from the Forecasting screen. Forecast reports provide a summary of the daily forecast vs actual results for last year and the forecast period. Daily forecasts are scored for accuracy. A breakdown is given for each driver that lists the forecast numbers for each interval compared with the actual results.
See "Forecast reports" in the Infor Workforce Management LFSO Implementation and Administration Guide.
New machine learning forecasting model
Machine learning forecasting has an updated model that is focused on increasing the accuracy of both daily and per-interval volume forecasts. The new model generates distributions for drivers that are configured for machine learning. This improves the allocation of daily forecast totals among each forecast interval for each day of the week.
The Batch Forecast Training task now provides more flexibility for the date range of the historical results data used for training. Training data can be selected as a specified date range or as a number of years before the current date or a specified date.
