Forecast Projects allow you to save your forecasting session so that you can return later and pick up where you left off or to share the session with others. The forecast project saves the data, forecasts, overrides, Hot List, modifiers etc. as they currently exist in memory. If you update your input data files after saving a project, when you reopen the project, you will have the option of either generating new forecasts using the updated data or restoring the conditions present when the project was saved (i.e., not recalculating the forecasts using the new data).
