# Model Roll Forward

## 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. 💡 We include all tabs with proper Drivepoint formatting requirements in the list (e.g. Date Spine in Row 3, etc). **Reach out to** [**support**](https://docs.drivepoint.io/help/help-1) **if you want to learn more.** 
  2. 💡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”
