The Time Series Forecast report includes a summary table for each Y variable. The summaries contain the following information for each time series:
Variable
(Available only if there are multiple Y columns and at least one grouping column.) The column name of the time series variables.
Time Series
(Available only if there are multiple series.) The name of the individual time series. When the data are provided in the stacked format, this is the level of the grouping variable. When the data are provided in the wide format, with multiple columns, this is the column name of the individual series.
Note: When the data are provided in the stacked format, the column heading in the table is the name of the Grouping column.
Min
The minimum value of Y for the individual series.
Max
The maximum value of Y for the individual series.
Length
The duration of the series. This is determined based on the starting and ending time stamps and the result of the Analysis of Time Pattern.
N Obs
The number of observations. If there are no missing records, this number is the same as the Length.
N Missing
The number of missing Y values.
All Positive
Indicates whether all of the Y values are positive.
Comment
Indicates if there is a problem with the series, such as non-unique time stamps.
Tip: The Group Summary of Y table is linked to the Selected Series list. When you select a series in the Group Summary of Y table, the corresponding entries are also selected in the Select Series list.
