Forecast by Date Report (web)

The Forecast by Date report is a flexible analysis tool that allows the forecast of livestock weights by a specified Target Date.

Weights at the Target Date are calculated using three ADG (Average Daily Gain) measures:
  1. By Overall ADG (ADG from each animal’s first weight to last weight),
  2. By Interim ADG (ADG from each animal’s two most recent weights), and
  3. By Estimated ADG (user-specified ADG).

Generating the Report

Select Reports, Forecast by Date. Select the desired ‘Report Configuration’ from the dropdown, specify ‘Search Criteria’ if desired, Load.

  1. This report can be configured to display the data fields most relevant to your requirements. Detailed instructions on creating or editing a Report Configuration can be found in Report Configurations.
  2. For instructions regarding specifying Search Criteria, refer to Report Search Criteria.
  3. For a description of the fields included in this report, refer to Report Field Descriptions.
  4. For detailed instructions about the Pivot function, refer to Report Pivots.
