Import Forecast

Quickly import an existing forecast into RIVET using a CSV template.

Click on the name of a job to access its Baseball Card

Click the Homepage Icon to access the Labor Planning Homepage for the job

Click Open Job Plan

Click the plus sign to access the Forecast Builder Tool

Download the CSV Template from RIVET

Each column in the CSV represents the Monday of a week on the job

Enter each weeks forecasted hours across the cells

Save the template as a CSV

Drag and drop the saved file into the Forecast Builder in RIVET

👍 Tip: If you can export this information from a source system (P6 for example) you're able to do so

When toggled on the imported forecast will start today and record into the future

When toggled off the imported forecast will start from the first date on the CSV

When enabled RIVET will average the highs and lows of the imported forecast while retaining the number of total workers

When disabled RIVET will still round to the nearest whole number of workers but will not smooth the imported forecast

💡 Note: The Fine Tune feature is only available if "Smoothing" is toggled on.

The Fine Tune tool allows you to smooth our rigid jumps in hours in your labor curve

The higher the number on the slider, the more rounding RIVET will apply to the labor curve
