Forecast Structure
Use the Forecast Structure screen to create and manage Key Business Indicators (KBIs), market groups, market segments, revenue centers, and revenue center periods for your organization. KBIs are the countable factors, which, either alone or in various combinations, assist in determining staffing needs when combined with appropriate work standards. They are the foundations upon which all staffing guidelines are built. Market groups, which are defined by market segments, are used as a reporting mechanism to help you track and forecast categories of rooms and guests. Revenue centers are outlets that generate revenue. They are defined by periods that are associated with standard sets.
