The Daily Demand Forecast Pace report is a key reference to see if the system has actualized and is on pace with its forecast by Customer Segment and Inventory Date. It allows the user to estimate the accuracy of the forecast to date and intervene with a user-adjusted forecast on any days that have larger variances.
