Serves as Home Page/Entry Point to the users Worksheets are typically opened from workbench Can be configured to display KPIs/Metrics Displays task alerts sent by the system/other users
Worksheets
The worksheet is the primary user interface of Oracle Demantra Spectrum. Worksheets are where user view and adjust the forecast as well as view and edit other data Worksheets can be filtered to specific data set (i.e. Brand A, Item A) Worksheets can be easily created or modified A worksheet can contain one or more views, usually displayed as tabs or Multi Dimension View (MDI) within the worksheet Worksheet data can be exported to Excel or copy and pasted it to other software tools.

Time series forecasting with causal factors Bayesian-Markov algorithm uses a mixed statistical model that is better than best-fit approaches. Forecast tree uses hierarchy to determine the best levels to forecast
For example, start at the lowest levels in the hierarchy and then move up one step at a time.

Causal Factors
Global Factors
- Model global causal factors that apply to all products and locations - For example, holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, seasons, etc

Data Model
Data Model represents a structure how data will be stored and organized within the system Demantra Core Data Model structure made up of following 3 base dimensions
Item Dimension Location Dimension Base Time Bucket (Daily or Week or Calendar Month)
Item & Location Dimension contains one or more Hierarchies (i.e. Customer Hierarchy, Product Family Hierarchy.etc) Each Hierarchy made up of two or more Levels and represents Child to Parent relationship between them
Demantra doesnt allow One to Many child to parent relationship i.e. If Item is a child level and Product Family is its parent level then a given item can belong to only one product family.
Hierarchy
Level
Levels
Used in worksheets, import or export integration interface, and statistical forecasting Types of levels: Items - group data according to characteristics of items Locations - group data according to characteristics of locations Matrix/Combinations - group data according to time-independent characteristics of item-location combinations (i.e. Forecast System Status) Time - group data by sales date General Levels Promotions - group data according to characteristics of Promotions including Item, Location and Time. Used in AFDM promotion modeling and PTP modules Settlements - group data according to characteristics of Settlements including Item, Location and Time. Used in DSM module. CTO Stores Model BOM definitions for a Independent Demand Item (a.k.a. Base Model). Used in CTO, part of DM module
