Several improvements and new tools were recently added to Live forecast to improve prediction handling and forecast reset functionality.
1. Update prediction when changing from manual to auto
This improvement applies to:
- All Rooms Live Forecast departments
- Non-Rooms departments with the Prediction module activated
When a day is changed from manual back to auto (robot icon), PMI will now discard the manual edits and immediately update the day with the prediction value after save and refresh.
Previously, the prediction value was only updated after the next data import (typically the next day).
Benefit: Users can immediately return a day to the predicted value without waiting for the next import.
2. Reset live forecast (non-rooms departments)
The Reset live forecast option in Tools replaces the previous Reset pickup option for non-rooms departments using prediction.
This option:
- Resets the live forecast to the system prediction
- Removes manual edits
- Updates all days in the selected period in one action
This means users can restore the prediction values for a full month (or selected period) at once, instead of changing each day from manual to auto individually.
Benefit: Faster way to restore prediction values for an entire period.
3. Reset pickup all (Rooms Live forecast)
A new option in Tools → Reset pickup all has been added to Rooms Live forecast.
‘Reset Pickup All‘ resets pickups for the current month and all future months.
This was added in addition to the existing ‘Reset Pickup’ where users could only reset pickups for the current month.
Benefit: Faster reset when reforecasting or after major changes in demand.
