Forecasting

More info would be amazing on this

RE: Forecasting

Hi Jack,

Thank you for the forum question.

To create a accurate forecasting model you will need to understand which variables affect your numbers.

You will need to fully in depth understand all patterns, seasonality, and correlation in your data set.

Based on this you will need to find the forecast model, which return the most accurate forecast.

We have many tools in Excel, which can help us with all this.

We have forecast functions, which can handle linear regression, non linear regression, correlation, growth and much much more.

It is difficult for me to point you in the right direction. I do not know your data and patterns.

We have a one day forecasting and data analysis course, which will give you the knowledge.


Kind regards

Excel tip:

Freeze Rows and Columns to keep lables displayed

You can freeze rows and columns in your worksheet so they don't move.

This allows you to keep row and column labels displayed on your screen as you move through a large worksheet.

Click below and/or to the right of the cell(s) you want to freeze. (NB. Excel freezes ALL the rows above and ALL the columns to left of the selected cell)

Click on the 'Windows' menu and selct 'Freeze Panes'.

Lines appear in your worksheet. The required rows and columns are frozen and remain on your screen as you move through your worksheet.

To unfreeze rows and columns, click on 'Window' menu and select 'Unfreeze Panes'.
