Forecast feature to work with Leaves Hierarchy

The Forecast feature work just with time dimension that has a hierarrchy with single parent. I would like to have the option to use the leaves hierarchy. As mine would contains yyyy-mm elements. That way, it wouldn't be required to create another hieararchy just for the forecast functionnality.

    Hi Stuart,
    I tried and it doesn't work.
    I have place the time leaves hierarchy in column. I did a set containing elements from 2020 to 2023. Saved the view both on the server and on workspace. There's no hide zeros When I try to do the preview or forecast, it says "you can start the preview again".

    Is it a defect, should I open a new support case regarding this (paw 2.0.82?

    This idea is not under consideration for the 2023 roadmap. It's currently possible to use the Leaves hierarchy (if it exists) by placing it on the cube view before starting the forecast process. Note that the Leaves hierarchy doesn't always exist, and in some cases may contain more members than desired for the Forecast (since it contains all leaf members in all hierarchies).
