Demand forecasting in Dynamics 365 F&O

Posted on by Hitesh Jingare
Hello everyone,

I'm looking for insights from those with experience in Demand Forecasting using Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O). We've been utilizing Azure Machine Learning for demand forecasting, and we've encountered a consistent issue where it generates constant forecasted data.
 
Specifically, we'd like to understand the Machine Learning models currently being used for demand forecasting in Dynamics 365 F&O. Could you please share your experiences and any insights on why this might be resulting in constant forecasted values for each month of the next year?
 
Your expertise and input are greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you!

    Hi Hitesh, I did a video on this topic awhile back for some configurations related to the Demand forecasting parameters and which Out of the box forecast models and configurations lead to a flat or "static" forecast:
     
    Are you using ARIMA by any chance? OR is the AML model selecting ARIMA when the Statistical baseline forecast is generated in D365 FO?

    Hi Hitesh,
     
    I don't have extensive experience myself. I assume you are familiar with the documentation? Demand forecasting overview - Supply Chain Management | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn
     
    Next to the documentation, there are also TechTalks available. Maybe these contain some more insights for you.
