Comparing Forecast to Forecast

The Financial Comparison portlet can be used to compare a lifecycle entity's forecast to another lifecycle entity's forecast, as shown in Figure 4-13. Comparison of forecasts for multiple projects.

On the Financial Comparison portlet's Edit Preferences page, in the Compare financials from section, select one lifecycle entity from the One or more requests field and select Use Forecast. In the To financials in section, select one or more lifecycle entities from the One or more requests field and select Use Forecast.

In the example shown in Figure 4-13. Comparison of forecasts for multiple projects, the forecast for Whirlwind project is compared to the combined forecasts of project APO-Pilot and project CRM One World.
