Services Forecasts Overrides Overview

Note:

This topic applies to classic Services Forecasting and does not apply to Enhanced Services Forecasting.

Use overrides to generate more accurate forecasts, based on top-level insight, for your services organization.

An override is a forecast, entered by a user in a parent role, that adjusts the forecasted amounts entered by a subordinate. Override amounts for both RPGs and projects are entered in the standard way but on the appropriate Override row; for example, the "Region Override" row in the Regions category is used for forecast overrides entered by the Region owner.

The Services Forecasts page always privileges forecast overrides:

However, entering a forecast override is not essential.

To get started, read Overriding a Services Forecast.

Note: Note
If you are an RPG owner or Project Manager, you can override some forecasts without having been granted permission controls—see Services Forecasting Permissions Overview for more information.
