Finding the forecasting model selected by Model 56

[Former Member]

Hi,

If I use statistical model 56 and run statistical forecasting, how do I know strategy 56 is finally selecting? I see the errors and the parameters when I click the "forecast comparison" icon. But I wan to know which model the system finally selected? Is there any tale that tells me that?

How do I do the assignment of forecasting model to a selection id and forecast and see the results in the background? ANy tables, programs???

Thanks.

Transaction /sapapo/msdp_fcst2 should give the final model selected for a selection by strategy 56. the forecast profile generated can be pulled up in the regular transaction to pull up the forecast profile

Hi Sinivas,

Thanks for the reply. But I am asking is to see what model 56 finally decides to go with? I mean trend or seasonal or....how can I know that the automatic model has selected a particular model after testing for all the models.

Hope this is clear.

Did you check the strategy column in the transaction I mentioned ? It gives a number other than 56 for the selection for which you ran 56. the strategy number maps to one of the forecast models. Hope you are able to find it.

Thanks a lot. I found it. How do the same thing in background? I mean I can get the forecast errors and everything in background but this model that it selects finally is something I am not able to find any corresponding table. Do you know what table it is?

Thanks.
