Experts,

Please Suggest me why I am getting forecast values dispalyed for a key figuure when there is zero proportional Factor.

the key Fig uses I as the Caluculation type for Disaggregation.

Thanks in Advance

How is the forecast KF calculated?

The proportional factors dont have anything to do with the forecast values and will not zero your forecast

Disaggregation is the only thing that proportaional factors afffect. If you have no proportional factors and if your forecast is linked to it with "I" then the disaggregation will be pro rata

If the proportional factor is zero, it must be setting equal values at lowest level of detail. Try to drill down to the lowest level and check if the values are equal.

One more thing, when the disagg factor is set to I, I have found based on some of my experiments that one has to update the cells with really big values to (like 999999999 or something) to get the key figure "initialized". If the values are small, it sometimes does "initialize" the key figure with disagg type I at all and hence displays zero. But I guess this is not the problem you are facing.
