At the click of a mouse, you can create Aggregate Items to help you zero in on individual product groupings. Once created, you can use these "aggregations" for top-down, bottom-out, and middle-out forecast processing. You can manipulate the forecast share of each contributing source Item, and a lot more. You can even drag and drop hierarchy components to create new configurations on the fly.

Although identified for you with a red letter "a" in their icons, Aggregate Items are otherwise treated by the program like your standard SKU Items. This means that you can apply any of TimeTrends' data and graphing tools to entire divisions within your corporation in a single operation.
