Forecasting
Purpose: The forecasting tools are a collection of blocks that provide rich visualizations of data to help agencies analyze their current and expected effort on cases and projects in a variety of ways.
Cost: No cost. Available to all sites, except for blocks noted as requiring an additional feature.
Status: Beta Testing.
Requirements: These blocks are currently available for all sites unless otherwise noted for a specific block. Continuing availability is not guaranteed as beta testing progresses.

These blocks must be behind a Tab Start element, not added directly to a home page or user profile.
Cases Exceeding 95%
