In 2.3.9 and 2.3.10 why are my weekly growth not what I expect

If I understand correctly, if the monthly growth in the DEM01 are 1%, then in DEM02 the weekly should be Month/4, in this case 1%/4=.25% but in DEM02 they are 1%, then in DEM03 everything seems much larger than I would expect. Am I reading too far into it or is there an error in the formula for DEM02 and DEM03, which causes the growth rates to grow much larger than they should?

Thanks,

  • Hello @MPWall ,

    First of all, congrats on making it this far.

    In terms of your question, I would start by saying that in order for the Monthly growth to be 1%, the average growth across the weeks should be 1%.

    With regards to your last question, the problem why you have 7% in the growth is because you are looking at the P2 rather than P3. This is causing its automatic aggregation when you do not really need a summary format in that Line Item. "Nutzo Bar_EN" will grow 1% of a given value, but "Nutzo Bar_UK" could also grow 1% of a different value. That aggregation is not too indicative as 7% means nothing.

    Hope that was clear!

    Kind regards,

    Hi,

    You are now checking Growth Rate in DEM03 in summary level of Nutzo Bar. I would recommend turning summaries of from Growth Rate line item and investigate numbers only in lowest level so for example on Nutzo Bar_en. No you see sum of growth rates for Nutzo Bar SKUs.
