Using the Forecasting Tool Creating a Forecasting Worksheet • Use historical data to create a visual forecast worksheet. • A forecast can’t be created when the timeline isn’t evenly spaced. The dates or numbers in a valid timeline must have a consistent gap between consecutive points (every Jan. 1, every seven days, 05-10-15-20 etc.). • Make sure your timeline doesn’t contain grouping or subtotals. © SkillPath.
