In SAS Forecast Analyst Workbench, the start date for a time series might not be as expected. This issue occurs after you perform steps similar to the following:

1. Create and diagnose a forecast plan.
2. Modify the start date of a time series in the forecast plan.
3. Add a product this is listed in the forecast hierarchy prior to the time series that was modified in step #2.
4. Add history for the new product/time series in step #3.
5. Recreate and diagnose the forecast plan.
6. The start date value that you specified in step #2 is now the start date for the time series prior to the one that was modified.
