Product Demand Forecast is a crucial process for businesses to predict future demand for their products. This task typically involves time series forecasting models, which analyze historical sales data to forecast future demand patterns.

Dataset Essentials for Product Demand Forecast

An effective dataset for Product Demand Forecast using time series forecasting should include:

  • Date/Time: The timestamp for each data point, typically daily, weekly, or monthly.

  • Product Sales: The number of units sold or the sales volume of each product.

  • Product Features: Characteristics of the product, such as category, price, or any special features.

  • Promotional Activities: Data on any marketing or promotional activities that might affect sales.

  • External Factors: Information on external factors like market trends, economic conditions, or seasonal events.

An example dataset for Product Demand Forecast might look like this:
