The last part of the forecast model build is to configure the results.

To configure results:

  1. Map these: 
      • Workspace
      • Model
      • Module
      • Item ID list
      • Time dimension
      • Forecast (forecast version) list
      • Forecast list item
  2. Select Create forecast model.
    You can check the status on the Forecast models page.

Example configuration: backtest and forecast results. 

A configuration example for backtest and forecast results.

APIs write the backtest and forecast results into the Anaplan forecast results module, based on this mapping. To generate the forward-looking forecast results, go to Step 4: Forecast Action.

Optionally, you can evaluate the forecast model before you create and run a forecast action. To evaluate:

    • Assess metrics in the inspector panel tab.
    • Examine backtest data and compare the forecast against the actuals.

Tip: Review the insights generated for the Data Collection before proceeding.
