Accumulated Forecast 1 is a KPI showing the expected financial outcome from the beginning of the year up to a selected month, according to the first forecast of the year. It combines actual data for completed months with forecasted values for the remaining months leading up to the selected point in time. This enables comparisons against budget or previous years’ results—even before the year is over.
In Homepal, this KPI is connected to financial metrics such as revenue, costs, and net operating income, allowing for tracking at levels like property or portfolio.
