SAP Analytics cloud Predictive Scenario skiping periods

[former_member710627]

Hello,

I am running a predictive scenario model in SAC, but when a train and forecast the model it skip one year of predictions and start writing on the next year.

Example:

Actual data real : 2018,2019,2020,2021

Predictive scenario periods : 5

Result : data for 2023 instead of data from 2022

It is more clear in the attached picture

Hello,

Thanks for your interest in Predictive Scenario. When I look at your screenshot, you have defined the last observation date of the training set to Dec 31st 2022. Thus the system understands that you want predictive forecasts after this date.As it is not what you want, the easiest way to proceed is to set the Until field to Last Observation. Then retrain your model.

I hope this will help you.

Best regards

Thierry
