Creating Reports

  To create a report of Predictor data for each series:

  1. Run a Predictor forecast and display the Predictor Results window.

    If it is not visible, click Predictor Results in the Windows task bar. (It may be located in the Microsoft Office Excel group.)

  2. Confirm that the following settings are complete and correct:

    • Periods to forecast— Determines the number of forecasted values that are displayed

    • Confidence interval—Indicates which confidence interval to calculate and plot

    • Series—Selects the data series to display

    • Method—Selects the forecasting method used to calculate forecasted values

    See Viewing Charts.

  3. In the Predictor Results menu bar, select Analyze, and then Create Report.

  4. In the Create Report Preferences dialog, select a report type:

    • Predictor includes only Predictor data.

    • Full and Custom can include all other available data as well as Predictor data. For information about Full and Custom reports, click Help.

    Note:

    If Include events is selected in the Data Attributes panel of the Predictor wizard, and at least one event is defined, the Events table is part of the Statistics section of the Series report. For custom reports, events data display is controlled by the Statistics check box in the Predictor Series settings of the Custom Report dialog.

  5. Optional: Click Options to specify a location and formatting for the report. For an explanation of each setting, click Help.

  6. Click OK.

    By default, the report is created in a separate workbook. See Figure 17, Average Temperature Data Report for Toledo Gas.
