Next month is the group's seasonal index. 100 per cent is an average month, so anything above it is demand the forecast has already lifted for.

A one-off month is excluded from the forecast rather than left to inflate the next order. The exclusion is stated on the line so a buyer can put it back.

Buying without a person never happens. 23 lines sit under 62 per cent confidence and the engine says so on the line rather than quietly ordering.
Products, suppliers, prices and case multiples are MSC's real range. Demand history, lead times and supplier terms are derived for the demo, deterministically, so the figures never move between screens.
