When you use the Exponential trendline you can see the line gets more exponential in nature.

[@LalitKumar-nj7xc]

Thank you very much for explaining in such a simple way 👍👍

[@simondoran7946]

Kevin, Could you do a demonstration for sales forecasting? 5 customers, forecasting Sales for next year by quarter. Using 3 years of historical sales by quarter as the basis for your model? Using the forecast function vs. graph? I will use your graph to show sales by industry trending but for budget planning sales forecast by customer is needed to calculate the totals for each industry. Thanks for considering this idea.

[@phits2007]

Solved my problem. Thanks Kevin !

[@angelicajose8328]

Hi Kevin...great job.. and i love all of your videos... so educational.. and really helps me a lot.. thank you Kevin..

[@kennethpaige7036]

Hi Kevin, that was exactly the functionality I needed and you presented it beautifully. Thanks a million!

[@CalmRadioOfficial]

This is the best explanation on forecasting. One problem however, is that on Mac, the forecasting function doesn't show. Any workaround? A video would be fantastic!!

[@blainecote8134]

Very well presented and easy to follow

[@lavak3]

Hey there Kevin. First off thank you for the videos. The way you explain how to use excel and its overall features has been easy to understand. In short, it has been very helpful and has given me more confidence when using this application for my work. Thanks again, I hope your channel continues to grow. Good luck!

[@techgrad87]

[@ssenjuti7770]

[@gintomino4136]

You are a great teacher!

[@mohdhafiez]

TQ Kevin for your beneficial sharing.. love its.

[@parthghosh1792]

Hi Kevin. It was very detailed and informative. Would really appreciate if you made a video on descriptive and inferential statistics with an example the same way as this video.

[@josephk.wlehjr3784]

I actually appreciate your videos. They are educative. However, please do a video on how to analyze plant populations.

[@cekirdekci32]

but forecast sheet is not available on mac.

[@arj123sub]

Thanks, this was really useful. Just what I was looking for.

[@eli2407]

Hi Kevin, your tutorials has helped me alot. One of my biggest downfalls is understanding Forecasting. I think I got it but I have an issue I want to run by you. We just started a new report in January. It has data for December, January, February but nothing for March, April, May. They held all the data from those months and entered them for June. The problem is how do you forecasting this type of table with such a huge gap?

[@learningwithmaliha]

Amazing Video, Thanks for sharing!

[@IAKhan-km4ph]

very nice. I need to learn with seasonal data. Plz make a lecture on that

[@sodelalbert]

I just found your channel. You solved issue which I was sondering about instantly. +1 sub from me! Keep up good work! I would be so gratefull to see more data anlysis methods in MS Excel ;)

[@lorrayneukw2272]

Your video was really good but it would have helped if you could have shown the statistical info table and explain what each term means.

[@arpitadas7470]

Thanks a lot 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@nelusen9768]

Thank you Kevin

[@RonixViva]

Great job sir. Thank you; one question, I have daily data inputs for the past month, but using the "Forecast Sheet" It won't let me go out past 1 week? Any help is appreciated! Ryan

[@Raaajzzz]

Thanks Kevin

[@ngozikaokpanku7319]

Thanks, this was really useful.

[@TaoGusu]

Can you tell us how to force the trendline to only consider the linear portion of a curved plot, but without removing data points? So that the trendline has a different slope. Thanks.

[@RomanAngel]

This was great. Thanks for sharing.

[@andrewstott354]

Awesome video! Quick question, hopefully you or some of the responders can assist? is there a way that forecasting can be used in a Dynamic way? Ie if you have a good estimate through historical data of what items you are going to use to service a vehicle fleet going, however, that fleet will have ongoing planned reductions can excel forecast what items will no longer be needed?

[@lakshmit128]

Goof learning video sit. Thank u

[@KapilGupta-of3gm]

Nice & concise video. However I can't see Forecast sheet ribbon in my Excel. May be it's not available for Mac. Is there any workaround / other option for the same ?

[@pepper2723]

Hi, I used Mac version of excel and I don’t see the Forecast function on the ribbon. Is this something I need to install?

[@holusoga]

Nice video, I have data spanning over 32 Cell-Column, and 46,733 Cell-Row. ( That is 32 Columns by 46,733 Rows) Which method can I use to carry out forecast on this data using Microsoft Excel?

[@suganthiganesh6101]

Thank you Kevin. This was really useful. How to change the exponential Y values into exact values?. For Example Y= 23825x - 5E+07. I want to get the exact values of 5E+07.

[@tlo4455]

"Work in a workplace." lol. Great video, thank you for the demonstration!

[@Dana-ti2qr]

This was great!

[@JyotiSharma-yx5ux]

Nice video. I want to analyse recovery percentage of a court. I have recovery data for 10 years. How do I show the trend in percentage terms?

[@relax9286]

Hi Kevin, thank you for the video. When I did the Forecast Sheet, it didn't take the dates. It only used numbers. Any suggestions?

[@pipo441]

Kevin, looks we can use the forecast sheet first and then apply the forecast adding/using the trend line and forward periods. Does that make sense or is that a wrong method?

[@soothingrelaxation.sleepan3224]

Great Video as always, Prof. Kevin. Can you please get us a video on spend analytics, Inventory Service Level, and Fill rate in excel? Thank you.

[@donshelton9103]

I would like to know if you can link 2 workbooks together and when you make changes on either one will it link and keep the formulas on each workbook and same information?

[@GeorgeMetry]

thank you!!!

[@Coronet_1969_]

Kevin, your example used daily data....I'm trying to use quarterly data and Excel doesn't like that and won't forecast, how do you work around this?

[@neetrab]

So, we are now in 2021. Was the forecast correct, Kevin?

[@darcyg852]

What if you have forecast by a product? Can this forecast sheet help with that as well?

[@LoopyTrout]

How do you do this forecast graph with a Mac? I have Excel 2016 and I do not have the Forecast Sheets option.

[@K5310]

How do you get to the "format trendline option" in iMAC?

[@Devin_Downing]

Hi Kevin, When plotting the prediction intervals on the chart, I noticed the chart doesn’t update when you select the log tic box. Is there a way around this or do you know how? I need the prediction intervals to adjust based on logarithmic scale. Thanks

[@madushaniranasinghe298]

Than you ❤

[@005civ_ibrahimsalaria2]

Hey Kevin, how accurate did these forecasts come to be?

[@floriantochie9253]

How would you that forecast for many SKU simultaneously

[@anshagrawal8122]

Too much learning

[@jamshaidmohsin5439]

3rdly, there is forecast function as well

[@jennifersanchez9952]

Great video! Question, how did you get the dates to consolidate from day to month?

[@DwaipayanRC]

Hi kevin can we use 3 variables in forecast? Like YoY Plan vs Actual with Projections?

[@studabakers4507]

It seems there is a limit on how far out forecast will go. Is that correct?

[@pwintphyuaung2784]

Hi kevin, it does not appear as a calendar on my forecast end instead it appears to choose numerical would u please suggest ?..thank you very much ! :)

[@ladanyaramirezsurmeier7852]

can you add a vertical line to show when you might reach a certain goal within the forecast? like when would you hit the 150000 mark as an example

[@marvinmuhlethaler8297]

you could just put the desired mark as a y value in the equation and solve it showing x=...but I think you already solved it by now :-)

[@AJ_roadway]

Thanks

[@katimho3328]

Hi, may I know which year or type of excel that you are using, as I can’t find a “+” sigh when clicking the graph to make a trending line

[@edwinmudzamiri4012]

How do I extract the forecasted values to my spreadsheet

[@dou7747]

Hello, I constructed a trendline for my sigmoidal graph in excel (Concentration vs Absorbance curve) however it generates an inaccurate equation which gives answers outside of the range of my data. What do you think can be the cause of this? Anyone that knows this, please reply. I need an answer as soon as possible.

[@Otisawide]

How about using the Excel 2013?

[@emilyteng8095]

How to plot one forecast line graph when I have multiple columns?

[@emilyteng8095]

Do I need to do the forecast column by column?

[@kishanpanchal2965]

What is actual results of view that u have predicated?

[@imosemimoses4466]

how do i activate the forecast tab on excel 2013

[@lodostic1015]

[@JohnFekoloid]

Kevin, did it work? Did you actually get the 1.2 million views a year from then?

[@levitamayo6355]

Why my forecast trend doesn't have date?

[@dastidararnab29]

[@bencamp2152]
