# Forecast events

Forecast events let you model one-off or recurring occurrences that affect demand — such as promotions, product launches, market disruptions, or seasonal campaigns. When an event is active, Flowlity adjusts the demand forecast for the associated products during the event period.

### Event list

The main screen shows all events in a table with their **name**, **date range**, and **status**. Use the search bar to find an event.

### Creating or editing an event

Click **Create** to add a new event, or click an existing event to edit it. The following fields are available:

* **Name** — A descriptive name for the event.
* **Description** — Optional details about the event.
* **Start date / End date** — The period during which the event impacts demand.
* **Impact** — The expected effect on demand, expressed as a percentage increase or decrease (e.g. +30 % for a promotion, −20 % for a market downturn).
* **Products** — Select which products are affected by the event. You can pick individual products or use tags.
* **Customers** — Optionally scope the event to specific customers.
