Hi Experts,

Can anybody tell what is Outlier Correction in Univariate Fcst Profile?

What is the mean of Expost Method and Median Method in the Outlier correction drop down box?

There are two methods available if we drill down Outlier Correction tab in the Univariate Profile.

1. Expost Method

2. Median Method

What are they? Need to know and need the forumals How Expost Method and Median Method?

Thanks,
