Use this tool to flag forecast months whose month-over-month revenue growth exceeds a chosen limit.
Prepare consistently defined customer counts, durations, costs or forecast assumptions. Keep aligned records and monetary amounts on a common period and currency basis.
How to use Revenue Projection Growth Screen and understand its results
- Prepare consistently defined customer counts, durations, costs or forecast assumptions. Keep aligned records and monetary amounts on a common period and currency basis.
- Enter projectedMonthlyRevenue, maximumMonthlyGrowthFraction using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read monthsAboveLimit, peakGrowthFraction. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| projectedMonthlyRevenue | Projected monthly revenue | list of number | Required |
| maximumMonthlyGrowthFraction | Maximum monthly growth fraction | number | Required |
Enter at least two positive revenues and nonnegative ceiling. Compute growth rates, then return peak growth and strict exceedance indices identifying the later zero-based revenue position.
growth[i]=revenue[i+1]/revenue[i]−1 Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| monthsAboveLimit | Months above limit | list of number |
| peakGrowthFraction | Peak growth fraction | number |

"input": {
"projectedMonthlyRevenue": [

}Limitations and assumptions
Peak may be negative. No demand or forecast accuracy is validated.
Numeric inputs, where present, must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Lists are limited to 100,000 entries; the rules above may require smaller limits. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
