Step by Step Guide

  • In the Drivepoint Add-in, click on “Roll Forward"

  • Select the month that you are trying to close (last month of actuals)

  • Select all of the tabs you want to roll forward. We strongly recommend to roll forward ALL tabs

    1. 💡You can only roll forward some of the tabs (e.g. DTC) if you want to get a partial view of the how the month is shaking out

  • Confirm your selection

  • Drivepoint will now roll the model forward by grabbing the fresh data and converting the month from forecast to actuals

  • Upon completion, you can navigate to M-monthly and see whether in Row 3 the label has changed from “Forecast” to “Actual”
