    Loved the idea. Thinking of few use cases:

    1. Export forecasted sales by product and store to plan inventory levels and reorder quantities effectively.
    2. Export forecasts considering seasonality and holidays (Prophet model strength) to optimize timing and budget allocation.
    3. Export data tables to support presentations, publications, or collaborative review processes.

    Yes this is a great idea and fits in with similar related submitted ideas elsewhere

  • As mentioned by @Gianni Ceresa , using the forecast function will allow to do the same. Basically surfacing this function as a feature with one-click would achieve what is requested:

    I am using the forecast function as shown above and running in to challenges when viewing multiple departments within one table. For example, forecasting FTE by department. If I look at one department at a time the forecast seems accurate, but when I add multiple departments, it shifts the forecast and seems like it is considering the FTE for all departments to forecast the FTE for one. Has anyone else experienced this? Example below.

    When the table contains multiple departments, the forecast for one department is as follows (nothing in the data suggests we will be at 34.85 next month):

    When we view this same department as the only department in the table, it seems accurate:

  • @Lalitha Venkataraman-Oracle - can you pls check if the customer needs to file a SR to triage this further?
