How many input worksheets does the standard deviations of error function require?

The standard deviations of error function in Kinaxis RapidResponse is designed to evaluate the variability of errors across multiple input worksheets to provide a comprehensive analysis. In this context, the function utilizes three input worksheets: one for the actual values, one for the forecasted values, and one for any adjustments or corrections that may pertain to the data being evaluated. This allows for a thorough assessment of discrepancies between the actual and forecasted data, capturing different aspects of error that impact overall performance.

Utilizing three worksheets ensures that the function can accurately compute the standard deviation of the errors by having sufficient data points for the calculations, allowing for a more reliable statistical analysis. The integration of these various inputs enables a nuanced approach to understanding performance and improving forecasting accuracy.
