Calculating Forecast Consumption (Accuracy)

I’m trying to create a dashboard to evaluate the accuracy of our forecasts. Well, actually, the accuracy of our customers’ forecasts. Our Customers supply us with monthly forecasts, so we have our forecast window set as 0 days before and 30 days after.I think my main question at this point is what happens to the extra days?For example:A forecast for 100 pieces gets entered on March 1st and April 1st. The customer buys 25 on Mar 7, 14, and 21.That leaves 25 balance for the March forecast. If the customer takes these on the 30th, that would consume the entire forecast.What happens if the customer takes the parts on the 31st?What I’m seeing, is the last 25 getting applied to the April forecast, but I don’t think that’s right.

I tried building the dashboard from the ground up and I’ve tried creating 2 dashboards, opening the first in developer mode, and customizing it using the sheet wizard,The problem is that, while th
