3.5 Manual Archiving on the OC
The Archive Display tool manually creates forecast run archives. Use manual archiving for unapproved forecasts. For example, forecasts run with what-if scenarios or test forecasts.
Note: The automatic archiving function of the Archive Module creates approved forecast archives.
Manually Archive
Use the following steps to use the Archive Display to archive a forecast run manually.
- Access the Archive Display tool on the OC where the forecast was run (same local datastore).
- Select the Forecast Runs option under Upload to Archive (subfolder) located on the top left of the window.
- Select the forecast to archive from the list of forecasts in the middle window.
- Click the Upload button.
At this point, the forecast is written to a zip file and stored in the configured archive folder until it is picked up by the archive process and stored in the archive database.
Hint: Archive several forecasts to one archive file by checking the Export Single File box in the top right corner of the archive window.
