FAQs
You got my attention, but I have a few questions first.
This trial gives you free access to Predict for a limited time.
Predict works as an intelligent assistant for all your planning and analysis requirements by helping you save time and making you more efficient and accurate using the power of AI and your actual data.
Predict: Signals requires at least 3 years of historical actuals as a minimum for the AI engine to learn from your data.
Yes, your data is absolutely safe. The Predict suite uses on-tenant training to evaluate your data. It does not use third-party services for training and your data does not leave your tenant.
Predict engine is built as a black-box AI engine for enhanced accuracy. We do not use a single algorithm but multiple algorithms, simulations, and mathematical models, and the outputs of all those are then stacked to generate the final results.
Yes. Predict: Signals is available in both reports (where you can detect potential anomalies) and templates (where you can potentially prevent errors from happening). The Predict engine looks at past months (closed periods) to generate signals based on actuals scenarios (e.g., consolidation reports) and it looks at future months (open periods) to generate signals on budget, forecast, and planned scenarios.
Yes. You can right-click on any signaled cell or set of cells and resolve them all. Once resolved, the anomaly flags for those GL values are then resolved across Planful.
Predict: Projections enables business users to quickly build realistic forecasts and budget scenarios using AI-driven financial forecasting informed by your historical financial data.
Simply right-click the line(s) you would like to forecast. You can create an entire AI scenario using Predict: Projections or use it in templates.
Accuracy is subjective to individual GLs or a group of GLs bundled together under a roll-up account for which you are searching for anomalies or generating projections. Planful has built our domain expertise into Predict to help generate more reliable and accurate insights and forecasts.
