Hello Sumanth,

You can have a look on this link.

This is regarding the calculation of forecast values including the initialization,expost values etc.

It also explains the formulas used for calculation.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Anurag,

Thanks for your input. I have gone thru the information earlier itself which

you have provided. The values are wrong which SAP is giving if i compare

with the formulas which you have provided.

Do not know why. just to know is there have any some other formula for

seasonal model? i double checked SAP values are not matching with the fomulas

for seasonal model.

Hello Sumanth,

Sorry for inconvenience.

What I can tell you from this SDN document is that you can understand the calculation of forecast using various parameters.

About the formulas , good that you noticed that the some of values are not visible ( in the blank spaces) might be it would have been deleted by some mistake while uploading to SDN by the writer)

So what I would suggest you that you can use formulas given in sap help link which you have i.e.

Please share you views,

Thanks,
