Placing items on the Hot List allows you to efficiently navigate, work with and report on a subset of the items listed on the Navigator. Items can be added to the current Hot List by dragging from the Navigator or by using the Add to Hot List option on the Navigator’s context menu. A Hot List can also be defined based on the items currently displayed in a report. You may use filters in a report to get the desired subset of items, then use the report’s context menu or hamburger menu to add all the items currently displayed in the report to the Hot list.
When you select an item on the Hot List, Forecast Pro will immediately select the item on the Navigator and update the affected views.
Right click in the Hot List area to open the Hot List’s context menu. The Hot List’s context menu allows you to sort the Hot List alphabetically, change how items are displayed and remove items from the current Hot List. The Open Hot List option allows you to open a Hot List which had been saved to Excel or import a Hot List from another project. The Save Hot List option allows you to export the current Hot List to Excel. The ability to import and export Hot Lists to Excel allows you to create multiple Hot Lists for a project and switch amongst them.
