Basic Value, Trend Initialization Calculation in Seasonal Trend

0 Kudos

Hello Experts, I am hoping someone can guide me on confirming SAP APO formulas for Initial Values of Basic Value and Trend. I am struggling to plug in values in order to validate SAP calculation of Basic Value, and Trend on a Seasonal Trend Model. The colored columns show the values generated in APO DP. I have identified 12 periods per season.

I am aware that initialization period for Seasonal trend is one season plus 3 periods.

As you can see (See attached image) my first historic period is 201812 where we have Actual History of 130.

I am trying to plug values into the provided initial value formulas in SAP Help, but I cannot get the values to match what I assume SAP is saying of Basic=442.3 Trend 6.56

Hi Adam,

We are struggling with the same issue here.

Can you tell me how you were able to extract the trend/basic/seasonal history values from APO please ?
