Note In this topic, we only list the measures that the admin adds to an existing forecast set. We don’t provide steps on how to create a forecast set for our example. To learn how to create a forecast set, see [Create and Configure Forecast Sets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.aaf_admin_forecast_set_task.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "A forecast set represents a set of configurations for forecasts for a particular business objective. These configurations include forecast dimensions, measures, adjustment periods, calculation methods, and calculation frequencies. Forecast sets can vary based on business units, locations, product lines, or other factors. For example, a company can have two forecast sets: one on the sales demand forecasts for the Hammer product in Japan ship-to location and another for service revenue forecasts for the Forklift product family in the France location.").

Add the following measures to the forecast set.

| Name | Forecast Fact Measure Field | Measure Type | Aggregation Type | Calculation Method | Track Adjustments |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Cost Per Unit | Cost Per Unit | Revenue | Average | Batch Process | No |
| Fixed Cost | Fixed Cost | Revenue | Maximum | Batch Process | No |
| Total Cost | Total Cost | Revenue | Sum | Batch Process | No |
| Actual Profit | Actual Profit | Revenue | Sum | Batch Process | No |
| Forecasted Profit | Forecasted Profit | Revenue | Sum | Batch Process | No |
| Actual Gross Margin % | Actual Gross Margin Percent | Quantity | Minimum | Batch Process | No |
| Forecasted Gross Margin % | Forecasted Gross Margin Percent | Quantity | Minimum | Batch Process | No |

\*For the measures that specify a formula in the Forecast Fact Measure Field, the formula is applied to the value calculated when the DPE job runs. This value becomes the final value written back to a field on the Advanced Account Forecast Fact object.

The calculation method is selected as the Batch Process for all the measures because the Data Processing Engine (DPE) transforms data in the org to calculate the values for these measures.
