Abstract: In one embodiment, a system is provided. The system includes a first client. The system also includes an analysis server coupled to the first client. The system further includes a first customer database of information coupled to the analysis server. The first customer database is to embody forecast data and to receive essentially real-time updates to the forecast data. The first customer database supports an OLAP cube associated with the analysis server.

Abstract: In an embodiment a method is provided. The method includes receiving forecast information in a computer from a first group of users. The method also includes integrating the forecast information into a database and corresponding OLAP cube accessible by the computer. The method further includes receiving comments on specific entries of the forecast information in the computer from a second group of users. The method also includes receiving changes of the forecast information in the computer from a second group of users The method further includes integrating comments and changes into the database and OLAP cube. Moreover, the method includes providing a display of the comments and the changes to the first group of users in an interface to the computer.

Abstract: System, method and apparatus for forecasting data with real-time updates. The system includes an analysis server including an OLAP cube. System also includes information database coupled to analysis server to support the OLAP cube. System may include a first client and an analysis server coupled to first client. System may further include first customer information database coupled to analysis server. Method of maintaining information may include receiving set of forecast data, incorporating the forecast data into information database through OLAP cube, extracting a baseline forecast from the database, and receiving updates to database. Method may include propagating updates throughout the information through the OLAP cube.
