Web Based Forecast Management
V-Forecast
Manager is an online forecast management interface which can be used
to manage the forecasts from any third party software.
Consider the scenario whereby a centralised forecasting team needs an up to date, day-by-day picture of sales or other financial information. Normally, centralised users rely on market intelligence from the field in order to make business critical decisions. This information often arrives in the form of weekly or monthly reports from the field based personnel which then needs feeding back into the forecasting system. This can be a cumbersome way of tracking progress.
V-ForecastManager on the other hand, enables field based personnel to update centralised data in real time. This information can then be exported back (via flat files) to the host system for instant analysis.
V-ForecastManager has an intuitive graphical interface which incorporates data in real time into its graphical interface. Data can then be changed via clicking the appropriate 'hot-spot' on the graph.
Other features of V- ForecastManager include:
- Custom pro-rating of sales data.
- Import and export descriptive text for change in MI
- View historical data
- Manipulate custom year ends
- Intuitive interface
- Combine forecasts over multiple sales channels
- Can work with any type of data: sales, costs, budgets etc
- User Defined Graph Colours
- Cross Platform compatibility using flat files
