All load series configured in the configuration are shown in the tree structure in the window “Series”.

For aggregated series, the top node and underlying series are shown in the configured structure. If only the top node is shown for aggregated series, you can show underlying series by clicking on the + symbol to the left of the series.

If only the top node is marked, all underlying series will be forecast even if they are not checked. If you want to see an underlying forecast, just mark it in the file tree. It will then be shown in the diagram, and its values will be shown in the data grid.

The  symbol means that the whole value of every hour in an underlying series will be added to the corresponding hour’s value in the overlying series.

The  symbol means that the whole value of every hour in an underlying series will be subtracted from the corresponding hour’s value in the overlying series.

The  symbol in front of the series name shows that a part of each hour’s value will be added to the overlying series. This is typically used for fractions, and the symbol also shows the size of the fraction. If you hover the cursor over the symbol, a small box will appear showing the percentage for the series.

If there is no fraction for the forecast period, the  symbol will be shown.

When you have produced a forecast, you may encounter warnings or errors. Warnings are indicated with the  symbol, and errors with the  symbol. An error means that no forecast has been created, while a warning means that a forecast has been created but there may have been a problem during its calculation. The symbols will be shown at top level and then all the way down in the file tree as far as the series/aggregation that caused it. If you hover the cursor over the symbol, you will see a message in a tooltip. If there are lots of messages, these will be cut off after around ten messages. All messages can always be viewed in notepad format by right-clicking on the series and selecting “View messages”. Here, you can also view any log file from the forecast calculation.

If you want to carry out a new load forecast for a series, you can mark the series for which you want to produce a new forecast and then right-click and select “Forecast” – see the image below.
