Hi,

CVCs can be created from Info cube, Flat file, MPOS, etc.

Please refer the below help link,

Hi,

Expost forecast is used to check whether the model selected for statistical forecasting is correct or not.

For Example:

If You take 3 years of historical data then the system will take one year of historical data in past (left most data in the planning book) to forecast for remaining 2 years in past. This forecasted value is called expost forecast and is compared with the actual sales in the past. If the forecast accuracy( in % terms) is as desired then the selected model is good enough to forecast for future.

Thanks
