Forecasting

Get a Handle on Future Product Demands

The need for a good understanding of future product demand is critical in the industry today. Too much product and you are faced with the decision on what to do with it; too little product and you are missing sales revenue. Product Demand is either in the process of increasing or decreasing, but the one thing that is always constant is that future demand is always changing.  This is where an easy-to-use forecasting module can bring great benefits by giving you the ability to create a forecast that can be used within multiple areas of your company.

Featured Highlights
  • Salespersons can easily modify a forecast by adding additional product demand or even future customer specific requirements that have yet to be recorded.  
  • Use any forecast in place of normal demand logic for any purchasing report in Canopy to get a better idea of what needs to be purchased for a future time frame.
  • Use a forecast in the production scheduling process to better predict future production requirements. 
  • No costly interfaces to third-party software packages.
  • No exporting of data to spreadsheets to create a forecast. Accurately forecast future demand within minutes.
