Anaplan's Statistical Forecasting App allows you to load historical data and generate a forecast using various statistical algorithms. The app includes 17 of these algorithms across 4 different overarching forecasting methods: Basic and Intermittent Demand, Curve Fit, Smoothing, and Seasonal Smoothing.

Not only does this model generate statistical forecasts based on historical data but it also analyzes which algorithm would have best fit that data. This approach provides you with a suggestion of which method may be the most accurate to use for future periods.
