Problem Note 38178: When including input variables in a SAS® Forecast Studio model, Scenario Forecast results might be incorrect
 |  |  |  |  |
When you include input variables in models, the forecast produced using scenario analysis might be incorrect.
SAS Forecast Studio changes the internal order of input variables when a user requests a scenario forecast from a fitted model. As a result, the default scenario forecast might be different from the fitted model forecast.
