Edit Revenue Center Forecast

As part of the labor planning process, you review revenue center forecasts, apply forecast environments (if necessary), and override system forecasts with your own forecasts. In LMS, this step is accessed from the Planning screen.

The Revenue Center Forecasting screen displays forecast data for an organization's revenue centers. On the Revenue Center Forecasting screen, you can do the following:

  • Select planning periods and revenue centers.
  • View business volume forecast information for each revenue center.
  • View weather forecast information (if available for the date selected).
  • Edit business volume forecasts.
  • Apply, change, and remove forecast environments.  
  • View details and statistics for KBIs.

The initial display shows the first seven days of the current planning period for the property. If there are more than seven days in the planning period, you can page forward in seven-day increments. All KBI and forecast information is displayed in a table.

Notes:

  • When first navigating to the Revenue Center Forecasting screen: If you have access to only a single revenue center, the application automatically chooses that revenue center and brings you to the screen, showing the data for that revenue center. If you have access to multiple Revenue Centers, the first time you access the Revenue Forecasting application, you are prompted to select a revenue center from the Select Revenue Center drop-down menu. The next time you access the Revenue Center Forecasting screen, the application loads the forecast data of the revenue center that you last viewed.
  • A mobile version of the Revenue Center Forecasting screen is available. For more information, see the Mobile 2.0 Quick Reference Guide.
