Forecasting with Power BI

[Anonymous]

Hi, I have a date time Column titled Created and  I would like to forecast the tickets created in Year 2020. Can anyone advise me what value should I set for the Seasonality ? Is this considered as Time-series data ? Also appreciate resources to understand how this forecasting works

Hi @Anonymous ,

In any time series data, if we have any yearly predictable change or pattern then we have seasonality in the data set. In Power BI we can indicate seasonality in our data, 12 for monthly and 4 for quarterly seasonality.

Here are some blogs that you can learn from.
