• The start period is the number of periods before or after the current period that the forecast generation starts from1.
• To generate forecasts from a future period, a positive start period offset is required2.
• Since the current period is Feb 2024 and the organization wants to start forecasting from Jan 2024, the start period offset is 2 (Jan 2024 is two periods before Feb 2024).
• The other options are incorrect because they do not match the desired start period for the organization.

Account manager targets are records that represent the revenue goals for account managers. They can be filtered by different criteria using list views. By default, Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud provides two list views to filter account manager targets by the assigned user: Assigned by Me and Assigned to Me. Assigned by Me shows the targets that the current user has created and assigned to other users. Assigned to Me shows the targets that the current user owns and is responsible for achieving. References: Learn About Manufacturing Cloud and Explore, Filter Account Manager Targets with List Views

 These three user types can be selected to receive credit for an order in the Tableau CRM configuration wizard when calculating actuals against account manager targets. The configuration wizard guides users through the creation of an app from the Analytics for Manufacturing template and allows them to customize the data and settings for the app. One of the settings is to choose who gets credit for the orders, which determines how the actual revenue is attributed to the account managers. The user can select one of the following options:

• Account Owner: This option credits all orders to the account owner’s actual revenue, regardless of who owns the order. This is useful when the account owner is responsible for the overall relationship and revenue of the account.
• Order Owner: This option credits all orders to the order owner’s actual revenue, regardless of who owns the account. This is useful when the order owner is responsible for the individual order and revenue of the order.
• Other User: This option credits all orders to a custom user’s actual revenue, based on a custom lookup field for a user on the account. This is useful when there is a different user, such as a sales engineer or a partner, who is responsible for the order and revenue of the order.
