# Pipeline Forecasts Reports

Review guidelines for how to get the most from reports about forecasts.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small edition"><colgroup><col></colgroup><tbody><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience</td></tr><tr class=""><td class="slds-cell-wrap" style="vertical-align:top;">Available in: <strong>Professional</strong>, <strong>Performance</strong>, and <strong>Developer</strong> Editions and in <strong>Enterprise</strong> and <strong>Unlimited</strong> Editions with Sales</td></tr></tbody></table>

- To determine whether forecasting reports are available, go to the Reports tab, and then click **New Report**. Select the folder in which your Salesforce admin has placed the forecasting report types. For example, many admins store Forecasting Items and Forecasting Quotas reports in a Forecasts folder. If you don’t see the fields or report type names described in this table, check with your admin.
- If a report that uses a specific forecast type doesn’t run, that forecast type was likely deleted. Check with your admin.
- Reports contain the latest information at the time when you run the report. If changes are in progress while the report is running, you can see a difference between your reports and the forecasts page.
- The data available to you in a report depends on what you have access to and can view in Salesforce Forecasting. For example, forecast managers can view adjustments, but someone who’s not a forecast manager running a similar report doesn’t see the adjusted forecasts in reports. A forecast can consist of a rollup of many users’ forecasts, so examine report results closely when using summary fields.
