When you apply forecast adjustments to selected months at an item or item-location level, the adjusted forecast will be automatically frozen in place, regardless of whether you click the “Freeze” button or not.

By freezing a forecast, you prevent the Netstock forecasting engine from overriding your adjusted forecast values for selected months with its own calculated forecast, and your adjusted forecast will be the one used by the ordering engine to calculate the recommended order quantity.

Click the “Defrost” button to allow the Netstock forecasting engine to override your adjusted forecast values for selected months with its own calculated forecast. This means that the computer forecast will be the one used by the ordering engine to calculate the recommended order quantity.
