Forecast submissions are your best estimate of the revenue or quantities that you expect
to close during the forecast period. Typically required weekly, the submission takes a snapshot
of your forecast at the time you make the submission. As management levels review forecast
rollups, they compare the current forecast against the submitted forecast numbers and quota, and
know that the forecast is up to date. Any differences better inform the forecast for the entire
sales team and the business.
