Hi Neha

That could only explain that in the background job it´s using different FCST profile.

Can you check FCST profile assigned to specific selection where the article belong in  /SAPAPO/MSDP_FCST2 - Assign Forecast Profiles to a Selection. It could be you are having any mismatch here.

This could result into incorrect results for you.

Please also check the flag "Always use job profile" in the background job. If this flag is ticketed then only job will use the above FCST profile otherwise it will pick form /SAPAPO/MSDP_FCST2

If this information helps please close the thread following steps

Thanks

Hi Neha

I would suggest, you should execute the Forecasting for respective article through interactive planning book using specific forecasting model. You can find the detail logs after executing the forecasting. These logs might give you some hints about the topic.

Thanks
