Plan lines
Each plan line targets a GL account, a department, and optionally a vendor, with a forecast method:| Method | How it forecasts |
|---|---|
| Manual | You enter the monthly amounts directly |
| Growth on base | A baseline grown at a rate, reshaped by a seasonality curve |
| Driver | Tied to a business driver |
| Vendor contract | Driven by contracted vendor terms |
Baselines and seasonality
- A line’s baseline can come from a trailing-actuals roll-forward, an uploaded budget, or zero.
- Seasonality curves spread an annual total across the year and always preserve the total when you reshape them.
Growth-on-base preserves the annual total when you apply a seasonality curve, so reshaping
the timing never silently changes the yearly number.
