To configure forecasting in Manufacturing Cloud, UC needs to create and configure forecast sets, which are the primary building blocks for generating forecasts1.
A forecast set contains information such as the forecast period, the forecast fact object, the forecast frequencies, the data processing engine definitions, the forecast dimensions, and the forecast measures1.
UC has two different divisions with different forecasting needs, so they need to create two forecast sets, one for each division2.
Each forecast set needs to have a different period group, which defines the time periods for forecasting. For the stock parts division, UC needs a monthly period group, and for the engineered-to-order parts division, UC needs a quarterly period group2.
Each forecast set also needs to have two forecast metrics, which are the measures that UC wants to forecast. In this case, UC wants to forecast revenue and quantity for both divisions2.
The other options are incorrect because they do not match the requirements of UC. Option B would create only one forecast set, which would not allow UC to differentiate between the two divisions. Option C would create only two forecast metrics, which would not allow UC to forecast both revenue and quantity.
