Posted on by 26
Hello, 
I am facing an issue with Workforce Management (WFM) Forecasting using External Data in Dynamics 365 Customer Service / Contact Center,
i created the historical CSV file as Microsoft guide saying: Import historical data, next i Created a new Managed External Data record (Validation Status = Successful)
finally created a new Forecast Scenario using the external data as the data source then click on Create new snapshot.
the system show only this message without details:
 
here is an example on the excel file data:
 
DateTimeChannelIdChannelNameQueueIdQueueName
