Add historical data from a source module to a data collection. It is the only mandatory data for a data collection.

To set up a data collection with historical data:

  1. In PlanIQ, select Data collections.
  2. Select New data collection in the top right of the screen.
    The configuration dialog for Set up a data collection displays.
  3. In the Historical data panel, enter your Data collection name. 
  4. Beneath Source, select the workspace and model for your historical data module, and the export action for this module.
  5. Select the time scale that complements the time settings in your model. 
  6. Beneath Data mapping, map the fields below from the historical data module.
      • Item ID list as the Item unique identifier.
      • Time as the Time dimension.
      • The line item as the Prediction target.
        Note: there should only be one line item in your module.
  7. If you only want to use historical data, select Create data collection (bottom right of the screen). This triggers the data collection assembly. You can check the status in the Data collections page.

Optionally, you can Add related data and/or Add attributes.
