Hi All,
First post here, so pardon any errors I may make.
I work on the Customer Experience side of a big call center, and I am hoping to create a rolling forecast that will allow me to predict the amount of calls that we may receive on any given day, week, and month. Specifically, I would like to utilize the previous 5 days (i.e. Volume of calls for next Monday is based off of the volume of calls taken on the previous 5 Mondays - averaged). I am hoping to use this same formula for the remaining days of the week.
Here is a small example of what I am working with:
<TBODY>
</TBODY>
<TBODY>
</TBODY>
For purpose of size, I skipped weeks 2-4, hence the cells jumping from 8-30.
Can anyone help me forecast what the 6th Monday would look like, based on the previous 5 Mondays? What would this look like?
I apologize if this is not very clear, please let me know if you have anyquestions.
Thanks in advance!
