Forecasting and Input Controls

[Former Member]

Report: Input Control and Line Chart

Input control for YEAR with values 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015.

Line chart having actual data (4 years) along with Forecasting ( triple exponential smoothing method)

Default values: All YEAR values are selected.

Scenario:

When I select only 1 year, say 2015, then I get error message saying at least 16 data points are required.

Now if I again remove filter, (i.e. select all values) on YEAR then Forecasting data DISAPPEARS....

Query:

Is it some kind of bug or I am missing something

Forecasting relies on a time element; could you share which version of Lumira you are using and some screen shots  - use the camera icon to upload

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Version: 1.28

SS1: All YEAR selected

SC2: Only 2015 selected.

SC3: Filter removed but Forecasting doesn't appear again

Hi Mayur - thank you for the screen shots but I cannot replicate this

Could you share screen shots from the Visualize room that show the dimensions and measures?

Hi Tammy,

Hope this helps.

Dimension:
Month (Time hierarchy: Year-Quarter-Month)
Forecasting: Triple Smoothing

Measure: Case Count

Thank you - I was looking for the screen shot for when you say the forecasting disappears - can you post that?

[TammyPowlas · Accepted solution]

OK Mayur - my sincere apologies.  I can replicate your issue.  Would you please report this to SAP Support as an incident?
